At our company, we believe that the best investments are those that bring true energy to the environment and connect people. That is why this April, as proud donors, we stood alongside HK Slavija Junior for the 13th traditional international tournament for the U8, U9, and U11 selections. The Zalog Ice Hall once again came to life, hosting young talents from six different countries.
Hockey as a school for life
Hockey is much more than just a game; it is a vital foundation for developing motor skills, a winning mindset, and social skills during the most formative years of growing up. We are proud to use our Derby® brand to support a sport that has brought so many top-tier achievements to Slovenia. We gladly share and encourage the club’s vision of excellence, discipline, and perseverance.
Sustainability in action
Our support for the tournament was carried out as part of our sustainability strategy, “Society – The Roots of the Community.” Through this strategy, we commit to actively supporting the environment in which we operate, focusing on two key pillars:
-
Active community: strengthening social bonds and promoting a healthy, active lifestyle where our roots lie.
-
Helping youth: supporting organizations that use their expertise to build a better and more inclusive future for our children.
“Investing in youth is the surest path to a stable and progressive society. By supporting local sports projects as part of our sustainability strategy, we are not only enabling top-level events but also co-creating an encouraging environment and opportunities for future generations.”
Congratulations to the heroes on the ice!
We sincerely congratulate the organizer, HK Slavija Junior, for the exceptional execution of such a demanding international project. A special tribute goes to all the teams and competitors for their heart and fair play—every breakthrough and every save is proof of great progress. And, of course, we must not forget those who earned the brightest medals this time: sincere congratulations to all the winners!
We are proud to have been part of this story, full of smiles, friendships, and true sporting spirit.
