"How To Improve The Game Of Golf"

 

 

Step 1: Remove everything boring.
Step 2: Realise there’s nothing left but golf carts.
Step 3: Give the golf carts new suspension, grunty engines and roll cages, then set them loose on a pristine golf course to chase a radio-controlled hole.

 

This is the logic behind Frucor Beverages and Colenso BBDO’s new venture into the world of sports: V Battle Carts.

 

The carts have been given a test run in a new 60 second TV spot for V Energy before they hand the keys over to the public. Against all better judgment V drinkers will be allowed to get behind the wheel of the Battle Carts when one lucky town is treated to a day of lawn-ruining action.

 

Towns all over New Zealand have been competing furiously to host the day by creating events on Facebook and then promoting them to their communities showing why they wanted it the most. 

 

“We need to always be pushing the boundaries, finding new captivating ways to get consumers involved with V. Additionally this year we wanted to dial up the fun factor with a campaign that was entertaining, exciting and still uniquely V. With the help of Colenso ‘V Battle Carts’ has delivered that in spades” said Cormac Van Den Hoofdakker, Senior Brand Manager, Frucor Beverages.
