MIKE AND IKE have been trying their hand at an exciting new sport by advertising at the international handball clash between the Great Britain women’s team and Finland.

The match, which is taking place at the Echo Arena, Liverpool on September 26th, is a qualifier for the 2010 European Championships and is scheduled to be televised by ESPN.

Prior to the international match, the finals of the Liverpool Schools Tournament will take place with the winners receiving the honour of being mascots for the main game.

MIKE AND IKE have also agreed to provide free samples of their delicious fruit-flavoured candies for all 1,500 spectators attending the event.
