OCEANS Sports partner with FFT

OCEANS Sports, following its strategic partnership with Ali Sports, announced yesterday that it has signed a service deal with Federation Francaise De Tennis (FFT).

Under this deal, FFT has appointed OCEANS as the promoter and operator of the 2016 French Open Junior Wild Cards in China.

Two days ago, Ali Sports announced a strategic partnership with OCEANS Sports, to combine their complementary resources in the development and marketing of sports in China.

The FFT is the governing body for tennis in France. It was founded in 1920, and is tasked with the organisation, co-ordination and promotion of the sport in that country. It is recognised by the International Tennis Federation and by the French Sports Ministry.

The roles of the FFT include organising tennis competitions in France, most notably the French Open, supporting and co-ordinating tennis clubs, and managing the French tennis teams, including their Davis Cup and Fed Cup teams.
