PITTSBURGH, Jan. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- 2nd Skull,
Inc. today announced that it has entered into an agreement with
innovative protective equipment leader Guardian Sports. The
partnership brings together two organizations that have both
previously earned product development grants from the National
Football League as winners of the HeadHealth Tech Challenge Series,
an annual event focused on the development and improvement of
player safety equipment. The agreement enables Guardian Sports to
directly market and sell 2nd Skull's product line to teams,
leagues, schools, and other athletic organizations across
North America.
2nd Skull's patented protective headgear will complement and
help to strengthen Guardian's exceptional line of protective
products. "The team, innovation, and solutions at Guardian are
second to none" said Greg Czerpak,
President & Chief Operating Officer of 2nd Skull. "Many elite
teams and programs trust Guardian to help keep their athletes
better protected and on the playing field and we are thrilled to
partner with such a talented group" added Czerpak. It was announced
in August that the NFL chose to evaluate Guardian Caps and with the
support of the NFL Players' Association, permitted the Guardian Cap
NXT for use in practice by NFL offensive and defensive linemen.
"At Guardian Sports our priorities are improving athlete safety
and performance through equipment innovation. The 2nd Skull brand
and mission aligns perfectly with these objectives and we are
excited to help bring new head protection items to our customers
and partners" said Erin Hanson,
Owner & Chief Executive Officer of Guardian Sports. "Both
organizations share a true passion for protecting athletes" said
Hanson, "This partnership further aligns two companies with similar
pasts and priorities." Beyond winning development funding from the
NFL, both organizations also have strong relationships with the
players associations of the National Football League and Major
League Baseball and combine to boast an innovation portfolio that
totals 14 granted patents
