Under the terms of the new arrangement with Teva, O'Hara, who already holds 5 British
Champion titles, 3 European Championship medals and 4 World Championship medals
will act as brand ambassador for Teva as part of its "Teva Tribe". The team includes
members representing many of the adventure and adrenalin sports inherent in the Teva
brand including kayaking, wakeboarding and mountain biking. O'Hara will also be joining
fellow team GB kayaker and world champion, James Bebbington.

Of the new association with Teva, the 29 year old Further Education Sports Coordinator
from Meanwood, Leeds says, "It is brilliant to have been invited to become a full Teva
UK athlete. Previously I received help from Teva in the form of gear but now with their full
backing and support I look forward to representing Teva across the UK, Europe and North
America as I compete on the world and European competition circuits. It will be great to
act as an ambassador for a company that positively supports and promotes adventure
lifestyles and pushing the boundaries of what is possible in adventure sport."
As part of her association with Teva, O'Hara will be competing in the 2012 Teva Mountain
Games in Vail, Colorado. The Mountain Games are the USA's largest celebration of
adventure sports, art and music. Professional and amateur athletes from around the
world converge upon the majestic mountains and wild rivers of Vail to compete in eight
adventure sports (including kayaking) and 24 disciplines for more than $100,000 in prize
money.
According to Giles Cundell, Teva European Brand Manager, "Claire is a massive kayak
talent and truly dominates the scene at the moment. She will be a great ambassador
for the Teva brand as she truly lives the lifestyle and lives for the buzz of competition.
Together with James Bebbington we have a really exciting and credible presence in
kayaking."

About Teva
Teva is a global adventure brand dedicated to helping people Live Better Stories. The concept of "adventure" is very different depending on who you
talk to, but everyone understands an adrenaline rush, a dopamine high and a staggering sense of wonderment. These are the moments Teva helps
provide. Since its birth on the Colorado River in 1984, Teva has a deeply ingrained connection to water, which is manifested in their products and
the cause they stand for: clean water. In 2011 and beyond, Teva is launching "A Pair for a Foot," and, along with nonprofit groups the Waterkeeper
Alliance and the Ocean Conservancy, will clean a linear foot of global waterways for every pair of shoes sold. It's a tall order, but Teva is taking it on
so that everyone can Live Better Stories for years to come.
