Rawlings named Official Softball of the NJCAA
Charlotte, NC – The NJCAA has announced Rawlings as the Official Softball of the NJCAA. The four-year agreement will begin on July 1, 2024, and continue through June 1, 2028.
"Our partnership with the NJCAA is indicative of our shared dedication to improving athletes' on-field performance throughout their respective playing journeys," said Mark Kraemer, director of sports marketing for Rawlings. "As the official softball of the NJCAA, Rawlings is proud to offer our authentic and game-changing technology to the talented athletes that comprise such a premier organization as the NJCAA."
The Rawlings NJCAAFP softball will become the official softball starting with the 2024-2025 season and will include the NJCAA logo. These softballs have a raised seam with a polyurethane core and pro leather cover that gives just the right amount of tack.
"The NJCAA is thrilled about this new partnership with Rawlings as the official softball of the association," stated Dr. Christopher Parker, NJCAA President and CEO. "Rawlings is a top-of-the-line company providing high quality products within the sport realm at every level of play and the NJCAA is happy to join in on improving and revamping the products used at the two-year level."
The agreement calls for use of the official softball for all regional, district, and national championship competitions throughout all three divisions of NJCAA softball.
