Nikon supports AFC Asian Qualifiers

September 6, 2011

The third round of men's Asian qualifiers for the 2012 London Olympics will take place from September 21, 2011 to March 14, 2012 with 12 nations competing for a place in the 2012 London Olympics.

With the 12 nations, represented by their under-23 teams, split into three groups of four, only the group winners will automatically qualify for the 2012 London Olympics.

Korea Republic, Saudi Arabia, Oman and Qatar have been drawn in Group A, with Australia, Iraq, UAE and Uzbekistan in Group B, and Japan, Bahrain, Malaysia and Syria in Group C.

Nikon will support the event as an official supporter; meaning the Nikon logo will be displayed around the pitch at every game, while the company will operate a service depot to provide support to official photographers at the event.

Matches will be broadcast in a number of countries in Asia, Australia and across the Middle-East by diverse media.
