Four-Time All American and NCAA Home Run Record Setter joins POWERHANDZ Team
(Dallas–March 1, 2016) – POWERHANDZ Inc., a leading athletic training products company, is partnering with softball superstar Lauren Chamberlain to help guide the strategic direction for POWERHANDZ in softball. The company is focused on introducing its Weighted Pure Grip Softball Gloves to all youth and professionals who are training to reach peak performance in softball.
Lauren Chamberlain, four-time All-American, NCAA Home Run Record-Setter and current USSSA Pride Star, is the latest athlete to join the “OUR TIME” movement. Last year, POWERHANDZ announced the launch of the “OUR TIME” training campaign, an initiative focused on empowering female athletes to train with confidence and break through their own glass ceilings.
Chamberlain joins two-time Olympic gold medalist Hope Solo, Former LPGA Pro, Nicole Hage and the Dallas Black Dance Theatre’s, Michelle Zada, as ambassadors of the “OUR TIME” movement.
“The ‘OUR TIME’ campaign acknowledges that women can achieve the impossible and there is no limit to what we can accomplish which is my life mantra. Partnering with an innovative company dedicated to helping female athletes of all ages train to be the best was a perfect fit for me,” says Chamberlain. “The first time I used the POWERHANDZ softball gloves, I immediately loved them. I am proud to share this training tool with my colleagues and youth around the world.”
Danyel Surrency Jones, Co-Founder and COO of POWERHANDZ adds, “Chamberlain is an ideal Brand Ambassador for POWERHANDZ and the ‘OUR TIME’ training campaign. She is a phenomenal young athlete who realizes the importance of skill development and more importantly, inspires others to become the best versions of themselves.”
