Zebra Pen Named “Official Signature Pen” of Ripken Baseball, Baseball Factory, and Softball Factory through Multi-Year Partnership

(PRUnderground) July 9th, 2024

Ripken Baseball®, the leader in youth baseball and softball experiences, today announced a multi-year partnership with Zebra Pen Corporation. As the “Official Signature Pen” of Ripken Baseball, Zebra Pen will collaborate with Baseball Factory and Softball Factory, in addition to The Ripken Experience® in Aberdeen, Md., Pigeon Forge, Tenn., and Myrtle Beach, S.C. The partnership will include the “Signature Moment” series that will celebrate the journey of high school athletes who continue their athletic careers in college.

“Zebra Pen brings a unique opportunity to enhance the experiences of our young athletes,” said Wade Martin, CEO of Unrivaled Sports, the parent company of Ripken Baseball. “This partnership aligns with our mission to provide young athletes a platform to capture and celebrate their journey and achievements.”

The partnership will feature the rebranding of complex bullpens at select Ripken Baseball locations as the “Zebra Zen Pen,” where announcers will highlight pitchers entering the game from these designated areas. Player-centric activations will be rolled out across social and digital platforms, providing players with tools to share their unique stories and signature moments.

“Youth sports, especially at the level of high school athletes, often represent signature moments in their career as they move from high school to college,” said Ken Newman, VP of Marketing of Zebra Pen Corporation. “Zebra Pen strives to be a part of those signature moments helping athletes and parents capture those life moments. Our partnership with Ripken Baseball aligns wonderfully with our mission. Similar to Zebra Pen, Ripken Baseball has a rich history in this space and is synonymous with helping young athletes achieve their dreams and make long-lasting memories. We are delighted and enthusiastic to embark on this journey to connect with young athletes alongside such a well-recognized and established partner like Ripken Baseball.”

The partnership kicks off with a social media giveaway where followers will have a chance to win Cal Ripken, Jr. autographed memorabilia that was signed using Zebra products. Looking ahead to 2025 and 2026, the partnership will expand to include Signage Creation Stations at all Ripken Baseball complexes, the Baseball Factory All-America Game, influencer activations, and an editorial series highlighting athletes’ signature moments.
