The event is one of the region?s major events.
Radegast Manager Karel Kraus talks about the main reasons behind the partnership: ?Ban?k is the symbol of Northern Moravia. It has fans across the entire region and it represents it beyond its borders. The same goes for Radegast. The partnering of the two well-established Moravian entities is logical, and I am very pleased that we were able to reach a mutually agreeable agreement. We have a lot of faith in the club and that is why we have decided to sign a two-year contract.?
FC Ban?k Ostrava Chairman of the Board Petr ?afar??k is pleased with the new partner: ?Radegast is an important regional brand and its support and trust is very important to Ban?k. I especially look forward to our combined projects and events for our fans.?
