WPF Welcomes Marucci as an Equipment Partner
OKLAHOMA CITY (April 20, 2023) – Women’s Professional Fastpitch is excited to announce an equipment partnership with Marucci, a leading equipment brand that designs and manufactures baseball and fastpitch gear.
As part of the partnership, Marucci will provide WPF athletes with exclusive access to the best gear in the game: infield gloves, batting gloves, bags, apparel, protective, and the newly released Echo DMND bat line. Equipment is just the beginning, as both companies are committed to moving the sport forward and will embrace this partnership with a collaborative and progressive spirit.
“I have seen firsthand the commitment that Marucci has to our sport. Not only do they have a quality product, but they have quality people behind the brand that truly love the game. Marucci has been supportive every step of the way since the launch of our league, and it is important for us to establish partnerships with people who want to see professional softball move forward like we do.” Lauren Chamberlain, WPF Commissioner
"Bringing professional softball to the back yards of our next generation is so meaningful to the growth of our sport. Young athletes, their families and fans won’t have to travel far to see the nation’s best players. On top of that, many of these players have grown up or competed in these same areas which have made an impact on their lives in some way. That’s special.” Allison Parsell, Director of Fastpitch at Marucci
From the youth to the pros, Marucci is a steadfast supporter of softball and WPF is looking forward to supporting their presence within the league and the sport.
