As the National Road Series season draws to a close, CharterMason Giant Racing is set to announce a raft of changes that will set the team up for long term success.
At the forefront of these changes is a fundamental restructure of the team ownership that has seen the formation of a new company; 13 Management. This new company will own and run the cycling team moving forward.
Directors in 13 Management are team founder Leigh Parsons, DS Damo Harris and PR manager Tom Reynolds.
Team Founder Leigh Parsons: “The change in our ownership structure is a result of a number of key factors; changing sponsorship arrangements, our physical growth as a team and an ongoing desire to continue cultivate quality riders and produce outstanding results.”
One of the fundamental changes to the team in 2016 sees founding sponsor CharterMason depart after 5 years as naming sponsor.
PR Manager Tom Reynolds: “The formation of 13 Management is the culmination of a year long process where we’ve built a platform for the team that means we can maximise sponsor value while ensuring that the departure of a sponsor doesn’t change our core mission. Today we’re the top Australian Continental cycling team and the changes we’ve instituted will offer our riders and our sponsors long term stability and success.”
In the coming weeks, the 13 Management team is excited to announce a raft of new and returning sponsors as well as the best rider list in the team’s history.
