EXETER, NEW HAMPHIRE — (Marketwired) — 10/06/14 — Performance Sports Group Ltd. (NYSE: PSG)(TSX: PSG) (PSG), a leading developer and manufacturer of high performance sports equipment and apparel, recently concluded its annual global showcase during which it unveiled its next-generation products and demonstrated the company–s industry-leading Research & Development platform.
“Every year we reset the standard when it comes to innovation and technology at this showcase event,” said Kevin Davis, President and CEO of Performance Sports Group. “Our largest event ever, MOMENTUM included more than 700 of our key retailers and partners who were able to see and experience the power of our shared technologies and scientific research that drive our platform, brands and innovation.”
Previously named BauerWorld, this industry-leading retail and partner event was renamed MOMENTUM to better align with Performance Sports Group–s multi-sports portfolio that includes seven consumer-facing brands across six sports. Last year for the first time the event expanded beyond hockey to include all of the brands within the Performance Sports Group portfolio. This year, the event expanded to include the products and technology of Easton Baseball/Softball, the company–s most recent acquisition.
Each business delivered industry-specific presentations and provided a unique hands-on experience. Attendees from around the world descended upon Amelia Island, Florida, and were able to interact with the company–s key product developers and designers to receive an in-depth explanation of the R&D behind the company–s products.
In addition to the many product presentations and ability to interact with the company–s employees, attendees were able to try out all of the latest product innovations in the Performance Sports Group sportsplex. On the grounds of the Florida resort, the company built an entire recreation facility, complete with batting cages, roller hockey court, lacrosse fields, soccer fields and hockey rink.
