Shock Doctor NEW Youth Baseball Protective Equipment - BATTER UP!
We hear statistics all the time about the staggering numbers of injuries sustained during youth sports. Earlier this month, The Youth Sports Safety Alliance presented a National Action Plan of ten items to Congress aimed at preventing injury and death on the youth athletic field. (http://www.youthsportssafetyalliance.org/docs/National-Action-Plan.pdf) Among them was a recommendation that parents should educate themselves in the potential benefits and risks of optional protective equipment. With baseball season kicking off, we wanted to make sure your readers were informed about Shock Doctor’s latest baseball protective accessories for kids ages six and up.
In addition to the wrist guards, compression shorts and sleeves, elbow guards, padded sliding shorts, and flex cups, take note of the Velocity Shockskin Baseball Youth Sleeveless Shirt below with the chest pad, as it was on the biggest sellers last season.
Just in time for baseball season, Shock Doctor, the number one mouthguard company and world-leader in innovative, performance-driven sports protection, has unveiled a complete line of Baseball Protective Equipment for children ages six and up. From Little League to MLB, today’s athletes are training and playing harder than ever before, and Shock Doctor knows that parents, in turn, are working harder to keep their kids safe (and give mom peace of mind), providing them with the best equipment on the market and featuring the latest technologies for maximum performance on the field.
According to NATA, approximately 116,000 children ages 5 to 14 are treated annually in hospital emergency rooms for baseball-related injuries (Children’s Hospital), High school athletes suffer 2 million injuries, 200,000 doctor visits and 30,000 hospitalizations every year. Shock Doctor’s athlete-centric approach to product development has resulted in products that are authentic to the game, and address the specific needs of the baseball athlete; offering protection at the plate, on base and in the field.

About Cutters Gloves
www.cuttersgloves.com
Cutters develops, manufactures, distributes and markets an industry leading line of football gloves and accessories as well as other sports gloves for the baseball, fitness, golf and soccer markets. True glove experts, Cutters Gloves, made with their exclusive C-TACK(tm) Performance Grip Material, are crafted from the highest quality materials for the best performance and durability. Other gloves may look similar, but the silicon application that most other companies use on their gloves results in an inferior grip, and a grip that will peel off, wear out more quickly, and that does not self-restore. An industry leader in the US and Canada, Cutters Gloves are also sold in 15 countries worldwide.

THE DEVILED EGG MADE ME DO IT
VONNY DISHES
DEVILED EGG CARRIERS FOR EASTER & SUMMER ENTERTAINING
Clever
Design Makes Transport-To-Table Easy
With a laminated, printed canvas exterior in
colorful, graphic prints, and a zipper in a contrasting color, the Deviled Egg
Carrier is topped with a webbing handle for comfortable carrying. The insulated interior with a non-slip
surface features an exclusive, removable oval 15" x 11.5" Deviled Egg Tray,
designed to hold 22 deviled eggs. The Melamine tray, which is included with the
carrier, comes in crisp white, making traveling to table not only stress-free
but showcases the deviled eggs as the main show. The tray is also dishwasher
safe.
The new Deviled
Egg Carriers come in two colorful prints: Sweet
Tea (a NEW print; a sweet,
vintage take on red cherries with a light blue background and red accents) and Mardi
Gras (bright, multi-colored confetti dots). For those who want a complete
coordinating set of carriers, the Mardi Gras and Sweet Tea prints are also
available in the Pie and Casserole Carrier.
“A once traditional potluck fixture, deviled eggs
are making a hip resurgence with gourmet versions popping up on TV food shows
and in magazines nationwide, adding new twists and a modern take on the classic
dish by embellishing with bacon, garlic, cheese and more,” says Vonny
Faucheux. Husband and business partner,
Jerry Faucheux adds “The vonny Deviled Egg Carrier will make transporting and
serving this delicious dish easier than ever.”
