ALIBERICO MAINTAINS ITS SUPPORT TO WOMEN’S FOOTBALL AND RENEWS ITS SPONSORSHIP WITH CFF OLYMPIA FOR THE 22-23 SEASON

This sponsorship reinforces ALIBERICO’s commitment to all those initiatives that aim to promote gender equality.

The CFF OLYMPIA Las Rozas project was born in 2015 with the only objective of promoting women’s sport, and particularly the football, in all its categories and ages.

Madrid, 12 July, 2022. – ALIBERICO, the leading Spanish and European private family-owned group and manufacturer of semi-finished aluminium products, maintains its support for women’s football and renews its sponsorship of the Olympia Las Rozas Women’s Football Club for another season, 2022-2023, with which it has had a collaboration agreement since 2020.

This sponsorship reinforces ALIBERICO‘s commitment to all those initiatives that aim to promote gender equality and open paths in those social fields where there is a scarce female presence.

The action of supporting a sports entity such as the CFF OLYMPIA Las Rozas is aligned with the values promoted by ALIBERICO within its organisation, which include an internal promotion policy based on meritocracy, regardless of gender, ethnicity or age. Proof of this is that 52% of the Group’s management positions are held by women, including managers of the largest factories with the greatest international presence.

The CFF OLYMPIA Las Rozas project was born in 2015 with the only objective of promoting women’s sport, and in particular football, in all its categories and ages and, since then, it has not stopped growing and achieving success.

This past season, its Senior A team has been among the first places in the First National League; Senior B has been League champion and has moved up to La Liga Preferente, and the Juvenil A team has been among the first places in its group in the Liga de Fútbol Preferente Femenino Juvenil. Likewise, its Alevín B and Infantil B teams have been champions and runners-up, respectively, in the Community of Madrid League.

« We are present in completely different sectors, but in ALIBERICO we feel very identified with CFF OLYMPIA Las Rozas because it is a project that was born from a dream and is characterised by its large doses of passion, work and effort, values that are present in the day to day of all our factories. Growing and fighting in every match, working as a team, is the formula that inspires their project », said María González Armero, from ALIBERICO.

« As María says, the CFF OLYMPIA Las Rozas was born from a dream in 2015 that today is materialised in a consolidated project with 260 players. It has been a year of great success for the Club and if there is something above them, it is to be able to share them with our sponsors, THANKS to ALIBERICO that accompanies us unconditionally to help all those players to grow personally and professionally within the field of sport and to continue opening the way and fulfilling dreams« , claims Vanesa Díaz Pérez, President of CFF OLYMPIA Las Rozas.
