Target signed 16-year-old professional surfer Carissa Moore to a sponsorship agreement. An 11 time NSSA National Champion, Moore is currently tied for first place in the Womens World Qualifying Series.
“Carissa is a phenomenal athlete as well as a terrific ambassador of womens surfing. We are excited about the partnership and to be supporting her in ways that will assist her continued progression,” Troy Michels, Target Lifestyle Marketing, said of the announcement.
“I love Target and I am honored to make my relationship with them official,” said Carissa. “Target opened two stores in Hawaii this year and its been great to have one so close to home. Im really excited and am looking forward to working together. I know well have a lot of fun.”
In early July, Target said a new Shaun White 4 Target will be back in stores for Fall 2009 on a year-round basis. Shaun White 4 Target debuted in fall 2008 with a limited-edition collection for boys and young men.
