ST. CHARLES, Ill, Sept. 24, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sports Field Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB:SFHI), engaged in the design, engineering, construction, and construction management of athletic facilities and sports complexes through its’ wholly-owned subsidiary FirstForm, Inc., announced today that the company has signed a marketing agreement with Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Marino.
A first-round draft pick by the Miami Dolphins in 1983, Dan Marino became an instant NFL sensation, setting the standard for quarterback excellence. He became the first Rookie quarterback to ever be selected to the Pro Bowl and was named the NFL’s Most Valuable Player in his second season (1984). The nine-time Pro Bowler (1983-87, 1991-92, 1994-95) played in 18 playoff games and led the Dolphins to the Super Bowl in 1985 against the San Francisco 49ers.
Marino commented, “I look forward to working with Sports Field Holdings as they bring their state-of-the-art products to schools and communities throughout the country. The company’s Replicated Grass brings together turf performance and athlete safety, which is something important and relatable to every athlete."
“We could not be more excited to announce this new relationship with Dan Marino. For a Hall of Fame quarterback of Dan’s stature and legacy to become a brand ambassador for us, speaks to the quality of the company’s line of safety focused products,” said Jeromy Olson, Chief Executive Officer of Sports Field Holdings, Inc. “I appreciate Dan visiting our fields and spending time on them with athletes, as it became clear that he only wanted to represent products that he truly believed could bring value to the industry and athletes on the field.”
Olson added, “We look forward to leveraging Dan’s relationships with the NFL, NFLPA as well as many Universities and other contacts within the realm of football and beyond. Dan clearly understands the need for safer products like our Replicated Grass™ with TerraSport® infill, that perform more like real grass to improve both athlete safety and athletic performance. We are confident that this relationship will create significant momentum and opportunities for us in this $11.2 billion industry.
