Visa | Singapore 2010 Youth Olympic Games Go World Campaign | Singapore

Visa, a headline sponsor of the Singapore 2010 Youth Olympic Games (YOG), is supporting the event with an extension of the 'Go World' campaign featuring three young Singaporean athletes.

Jeffrey Lightfoot, a 15-year-old footballer, Darren Choy (16, sailing) and Amanda Lim (17, swimming) appear in a series of ‘Go World’ print ads. They have been chosen to represent the ‘excellence, friendship and respect’ of the YOG. TBWA Singapore and TBWAChiatDay are behind the project.

American Olympic gold gymnast medallist Kerri Strug has also been invited to mark the 100-day countdown to the YOG. She was the youngest Olympian at the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games, aged just 14.

“The Youth Olympic Games is the perfect platform for nurturing young sporting talent on a global stage,” Strug said. “This is also a once-in-a-lifetime event for Singapore, and I hope that everyone has the chance to get tickets and witness the Games in person or act as a volunteer to be part of the action,” she added.

Lightfoot, Choy and Lim will be competing for top honours during the YOG running from 14 to 26 August 2010.
