 A cornerstone of the multi-year, multimillion dollar agreement is the ability for Herbalife to showcase its brand name on the front of the team jersey. For the first time in the history of team sports in the United States, a professional league will allow its franchises to sell "sponsorship rights" on a primary position of the players' uniforms. A long-accepted practice for soccer and other teams internationally, the 2007 MLS season will mark the first time a U.S. league will permit this marketing platform for team sponsors.

"Without a doubt, this is a milestone event in American sports marketing," said Shawn Hunter, President, AEG Sports and Chief Marketing Officer, AEG. "With the tremendous amount of global exposure the Galaxy is expected to generate in the upcoming season, the time was clearly right for a professional league in the United States to create this branding platform."

"The high caliber of play as well as the acquisition of international players has truly raised the interest and visibility of MLS in the Untied States and worldwide," said Timothy J. Leiweke, President & CEO, AEG. "The league's exceptional national broadcast contracts with ABC, ESPN, HD Net and Univision, the number of new soccer-specific stadiums opened or being built and the remarkable success of the recent World Cup ratings in the United States indicates a new day for American soccer and the sport."

"Additionally, Herbalife's support of the Galaxy raises the bar for our club while being a tremendous boon for the sport," continued Leiweke. "We've had the opportunity to work with Herbalife since 2005 and no other company activates a sponsorship as well as they do. Herbalife sponsorship of AEG properties has grown over the past two years and their distributors have become a familiar sight at The Home Depot Center and our other events."

"Soccer brings people together, and bridges across nationalities and borders," said Greg Probert, Herbalife's president and chief operating officer. "We have 1.5 million independent distributors in 64 countries. With upcoming Galaxy matches scheduled for the United States, Mexico and Asia and the worldwide interest in soccer, we'll be supporting our distributors with branding in their own backyards and on a global scale."

Herbalife first became a sponsor of AEG-owned and operated events in 2005. The Herbalife name will appear in conjunction with the team name on all official team wear and replica jerseys and other select team merchandise. The agreement also makes Herbalife the official sponsor of all international and exhibition games; provides it with increased media exposure, including television commercials and radio spots; exposure on the 110, 10, 405 and 91 freeways; and Web presence and sponsorship of Los Angeles Galaxy grass roots and community programs.

What is Wellness?

“ The condition of good physical and mental health, especially when maintained by proper diet, exercise and habits.”–American Heritage Dictionary

“Wellness is about waking up every morning and having enough time, energy and freedom to live the life you want.”

The Keys to Optimum Wellness

1 – Balance Your Diet

You need to get enough of the right foods including colourful fruits and vegetables, protein, good carbohydrates and just enough good fats for the taste you want. You also need vitamins, minerals and fibre from dietary supplements to provide the nutrition missing from your diet that your cells need for good health.


2 – Exercise Regularly

Regular exercise can help you feel and look your best. Exercise conditions your heart and relieves stress and makes it easier to achieve and maintain a healthy body weight.


3 – Drink Lots of Water

Your body is about two-thirds water. In an average day, you lose at least one pint of water even without excessive sweating. To feel your best, you should drink 6 to 8 glasses of water a day.
