Greenville, SC (July 11, 2020) – As the Greenville Triumph Soccer Club prepares for the start of the 2020 season, the club has unveiled a Triumph-wrapped charter bus to its players that will be utilized for travel to regional away games. The club surprised Triumph players Saturday morning by unveiling the bus to them prior to departing for a scrimmage in Rock Hill against the Charlotte Independence.
“We’re not immune to some long bus trips in this league,” said Triumph vice chairman Doug Erwin. “It was great to be able to unveil this to the guys, and the club was excited to be able to partner locally with Jean’s and the YMCA to make this vision come to life.”
The 56-passenger bus comes from a new partnership the club has formed with local Greenville transportation company Jean’s Bus Service and was wrapped locally by Triumph partner Wrap & Roll Graphics. The club will utilize the bus for away games around the southeast, including scheduled trips to Richmond, Chattanooga and Statesboro. The wrap, powered by the YMCA of Greenville, features the Greenville Triumph script down the sides with the Triumph shield and YMCA logos prominently featured on each side.
The bus is set to go into service for the Triumph soon, as the delayed 2020 season is set to start on July 18th, making the league the first team contact sport league to return to play in home markets since the coronavirus pandemic began. GTSC is set to unveil a full schedule for the season in the coming days.
