EPT CEO Juha Kytö comments:

We all at EPT are excited of the progressive support from Powergrip. EPT is a common project for the whole disc golf industry. The multi-year partnership is a sign of significant steps that need a long-term commitment from the Tour itself and its Tour Partners. Taking the partnership to the next level with Official Retail Partner status, Powergrip can implement more interesting merchandise for the fans and support the professional players. As a biggest disc golf retail shop in Europe, they know what they are doing.

With this partnership taking place, we can also now make a few notable changes to Disc Golf Stream live broadcasts so you have the best experience at home watching the professionals play. EPT merchandise will step up with Powergrips wide customer base and ability to do special releases. When the EPT Fan Box drops, you do not want to miss that!
