National Pro Fastpitch announced yesterday that it has begun a partnership with Evoshield, one of the industry’s hottest names in protective padding.
In a prepared release, NPF commissioner Cheri Kempf said the league was introduced to Evoshield by its athletes.
“It seemed the athletes who had discovered Evoshield were quickly attached to the complete protection balanced with total comfort that the EvoShield products provide,” she said. “We are proud to now have Evoshield step into the NPF Promotional Partner category and look forward to increasing their exposure through all levels of softball.”
Evoshield has become increasingly popular in several different leagues and sports, thanks to the unique way the pads are fitted. Evoshield uses a proprietary substance that turns a gel into a hardened material and allows consumers to custom fit their protective device.
Whereas other pads might be bulky or they might not fit 100% correctly, Evoshield’s pads are designed for a custom fit. The result is protection without having to sacrifice comfort or range of motion.
Keep an eye out for them this summer as National Pro Fastpitch — the professional home of players like Cat Osterman, Megan Gibson and Monica Abbott — begins play.
