Arizona Athletics Sign Multi-Year Deal With Marucci Sports

Aug 28th 2020

Marucci Sports announced on 8/28 that the Arizona Athletics have joined the newly formed Franchise Club.

“Having the Arizona Athletics join the Franchise Club is a no-brainer. They have represented the Marucci Sports brand in the state of Arizona while also staying loyal to their commitment to our products. The Franchise Club provides a mechanism for growth to their organization that we look forward to being a part of,” said Kyle Achord, Vice President of Team Sales.

The Arizona Athletics were extended an invitation to secure a spot in Marucci Sports’ exclusive new program called the Franchise Club. With this new multi-year deal, the Arizona Athletics will be granted the use of Marucci and Victus in their team names, along with a deeper integration with the brands.

Eric Gardner, the Director of the Arizona Athletics, agrees with Achord’s outlook. “We can't say enough how excited we are to continue to build our relationship with Marucci Sports as a Franchise Club. Entering our 5th year in the Founders’ Club, Marucci has created a first-class experience for our players, coaches and families. We are fortunate to have built relationships with the Marucci staff as they are all true baseball people with a commitment to serve that is second to none. The ability for our players to have access to the best products in baseball has now further expanded with access to Victus products by becoming a Franchise Club. This is a game changer for Arizona Athletics.”

The Arizona Athletics have been growing year after year as a Founders’ Club organization. Being one of the most prestigious travel ball organizations in the nation, the Arizona Athletics will have the backing of Marucci and Victus to broaden their reach even further.

“The growth of Arizona Athletics is truly representative of our partnership with Marucci Sports and the connection we have made to Kyle, Tanna and Trey and their commitment to our program. We will now enter a new era with the establishment of being a Marucci Franchise Club and looking forward to the continued growth of Marucci Sports and the Arizona Athletics!” said Gardner.

“With Eric having been a high school coach in the state, he has tremendous relationships which has allowed the Athletics to attract some of the top talent in the area. The staff he has in place, combined with the Marucci and Victus brands, will now allow their program to become an even bigger force nationally. The future for the Athletics just got even better,” continued Achord.

Marucci Sports is excited about the top travel ball organizations throughout the country representing the two hottest brands in baseball. Both brands are committed to supporting the Franchise Clubs to grow and reach new heights.
