Last year Rehband products were seen on a lot of the athletes at the 2015 Reebok CrossFit® Games. This Wednesday March 16th, Rehband announced that the 2016 Reebok CrossFit® Games will have continued support from Rehband as the official provider of the CrossFit® Games Limited Edition knee sleeves.

“We are proud of Rehband’s continued support of the CrossFit Games and the CrossFit community” said Steve Weiss, Corporate Development for CrossFit, Inc. ”Like all of our partners and sponsors for the 2016 Reebok CrossFit Games, Rehband, a recognized leader in providing durable and flexible knee support, is aligned with our goal of promoting health and wellness through CrossFit-affiliated gyms.”

Rehband is a brand that focuses on educating athletes on how to maintain an active lifestyle and achieve optimal performance. The quest of becoming Fittest On Earth® is an inspiration for many, and requires a healthy lifestyle with a lot of attention to physical strength and challenges.

”We recognize that CrossFit athletes are highly aware of their physical abilities and limitations exposed through CrossFit workouts. It’s natural to them, since CrossFit workouts require physical and mental strength and perseverance. That means being smart and choosing products that support their efforts. Rehband products are a natural part of that process for these amazing athletes.” - Celine Flach, Global Marketing Manager at Rehband.

Rehband will be onsite at the 2016 Reebok CrossFit® Games to support the search for the Fittest on Earth®. The limited edition products will be launched June 1st and will be available for purchase at Dicks Sporting Goods, Rogue Fitness, CrossFit’s online store and selected retailers worldwide. The price range will be between 41 and 48 USD per product. The CrossFit Games, now in their tenth year, will be held July 19th -24th in Carson, CA, and broadcast on the ESPN network as well as CrossFit’s website located at games.crossfit.com.

All athletes competing in the 2016 Reebok CrossFit® Games finals will receive a pair of the CrossFit® Games Limited Edition knee sleeves to be prepared for the challenge. The Rehband team wants to show its’ support for the CrossFit Games staff by giving each of them one pair of the limited edition knee sleeves. They also offer the dedicated judges protection products to make their work more comfortable.

”The Rehband team couldn’t be happier to continue supporting The Games and we look forward to growing our presence at the event as well as in the CrossFit community” says Celine Flach, Global Marketing Manager at Rehband. ”We know our knee sleeves are an important part of a CrossFitter’s life, and we want to make sure we do everything possible to keep the athletes performing on top as well as support the hard working volunteers that make it all possible.”
