BallHockeyGear.ca Partners with the CBHA as Official Retail Sponsor!

2016-05-04


​The Canadian Ball Hockey Association is very pleased to announce BallHockeyGear.ca as it’s newest Partner as the Official National Retail Sponsor to the CBHA!

Riel Ouimet, owner of BallHockeyGear.ca says, “This is an incredibly significant milestone for our business. I started BHG.ca because as a player I was personally invested in ball hockey – it’s an incredible sport with immense opportunity but it’s always been pretty difficult to access gear that’s made for us - let alone gear that enables us to be better ball hockey players. It can be a painful sport if you’re not wearing the right gear. Fundamentally, I believe in ball hockey and wanted to be a part of it’s growth across Canada. A partnership with the CBHA will allow us to do just that – to reach athletes at all levels with great gear, wherever they live.”



To celebrate the partnership, for the entire month of May all purchases made at www.ballhockeygear.ca using the promotional code “CBHAPARTNER” will receive 10% off. For the first fifty customers using the promotional code, BallHockeyGear.ca will also throw in FREE blade tape!

As the CBHA’s Official National Retail Partner, BallHockeyGear.ca will host the Official CBHA Store – online – where event tickets, enter-to-win fundraising & marketing promotions, CBHA apparel and swag, and other merchandise will be sold. Long term Apparel Partner, LIKA, will retail Team Canada apparel through its own e-commerce site and retail event merchandise at CBHA competitions as per usual.

Ball HockeyGear.ca will also work in unison with the CBHA’s Referee-in-Chief cohort to develop a “CBHA Compliant” identifier that will allow players shopping online at www.ballhockeygear.ca to easily identify equipment that complies with the rules and regulations of the CBHA.

The BHG.ca team will be present at select CBHA events with the pop-up store they showcased at CBHA’s 2015 National Championships. CBHA members should expect to see Riel and his team return with their booth at the 2016 ISBHF World Masters Championships in Banff. 

For the 2016 ISBHF World Masters Championships, Masters athletes - both in Canada and internationally - will be offered a pre-order “No Shipping Charges” promotion that will allow equipment to be ordered and paid for prior to arriving in Banff. On arrival Banff, athletes will be able to collect pre-ordered equipment from the BallHockeyGear.ca booth saving on all shipping charges.

Says President of the CBHA, Shelley Callaghan, “Our new partnership with BallHockeyGear.ca embodies everything that is great about ball hockey in Canada right now – it’s a really positive time in the CBHA’s history. We have passionate people collaborating on both sides of this partnership driving forward the CBHA’s agenda – growing the sport, increasing it’s accessibility, and making it possible for our players to increase the standard of play higher by pushing the envelope on equipment development, and accessibility. Riel and the guys from BallHockeyGear.ca are in great company with the guys from LIKA, our Official Uniform & Apparel Supplier. I cant wait to see what the next twelve months holds for ball hockey in Canada with this caliber of support.”
