Last month on February 21 the company was in the news after it announced that it had managed to bag the exclusive expansion rights for the Technique Tigers Baseball Academy, which is a skill development academy for kids based out of Trumbull, Connecticut.
Over the course of the past decade and a half, the academy has provided guidance to more than 700 athletes and many of those have gone on to play college and professional baseball. The mission of the academy is to create strong student-athletes who comprehend the necessity of education, health, and discipline. Technique Tigers would join up with Jump Star Sport, a subsidiary of Bell Buckle Holdings to offer the programs to different communities.
