Register To Win a Set of Tires, Gas and Automotive Services for the Soccer Season

GREENVILLE, S.C. – (July 5, 2006) – Soccer families put a lot of miles on their vehicles. And these days with gas prices so high, trips to and from the soccer field can mean big spending. For the grand prize winner of the “Uniroyal Tire Win a Free Soccer Season Sweepstakes,” however, next season will be a free ride.

Uniroyal Tire, a longtime supporter of youth soccer nationally, will award a “free soccer season” in 2007 (a set of tires, four months of gas, soccer registration and automotive services) to one lucky family who enters the Uniroyal sweepstakes this fall at www.uniroyal.com/sweeps. In addition, the grand prize winner’s soccer league will receive $1,000 from Uniroyal Tire to put towards field equipment, scholarships and other expenses. Monthly first prize winners will receive four months of gas for the 2007 fall season.

“We like to think that we help soccer families with their expenses every day by providing them good quality tires at affordable prices,” said Kaz Holley, Uniroyal brand marketing director. “This sweepstakes is a way for us to help one particular family in a big way.”

Soccer parents can enter the sweepstakes at www.uniroyal.com/sweeps once a month (from Aug. 1 through Nov. 30, 2006) allowing them to be eligible for one monthly first prize drawing to win four months of gas for the 2007 fall soccer season. In December 2006, Uniroyal will conduct a final drawing from all entries received throughout the promotional period to select the grand prize winner.

Uniroyal Tire is in its seventh year as a major sponsor of youth soccer. This fall, more than 100,000 young players and their families will visit 900 participating Uniroyal dealers to receive a free soccer ball. Uniroyal and its dealers will also hold fundraising programs for the sponsored leagues. Since program inception, Uniroyal and its dealers have donated nearly $9 million in equipment and funds to thousands of youth soccer organizations across the country.
