BioSteel Sports, maker of the BioSteel Sports High Performance Sports Drink otherwise known as #DrinkThePink, and the All Ontario AAA Bantam Championships have joined forces to hydrate future hockey stars at this 6 day event that will showcase the top teams from across Ontario.
BioSteel is partnering with a tournament that is historically known for showcasing future stars at an early age who eventually become house hold names in hockey. As an example in the spring of 2008, the Huron Perth Lakers hosted the same tournament in Stratford not knowing many of the players names as well as we do now. Today those names are well known thanks to the 2009 OHL Draft and the 2011 NHL Draft. Those player names turned out to be Malcom Subban (Boston Bruins ), Ryan Strome (New York Islanders), Ryan Murphy (Carolina Hurricanes) and the mighty Boone Jenner (Columbus Blue Jackets). In the spring of 2014 BioSteel will be hydrating the next wave of Ontario’s hockey future stars!
The BioSteel High Performance Sports Drink and nutritional products were created by Matt Nichol who is a veteran strength and conditioning coach with over 12 years of experience coaching athletes from the NHL, NFL, NBA, NCAA, Tennis and Athletics Canada. While training NHL athletes, Matt grew more and more unsatisfied with the supplements his players were consuming – fearful they were doing more harm than good. In 2005 when the league unveiled strict anti-doping testing, Matt knew it was time to take matters into his own hands. With his nutrition background and a team of reputable scientists, they formulated a safe and high-calibre supplement solely to maximize training & performance of Professional and Olympic athletes. Born was a quick-absorbing formula using a precise ratio of amino acids, electrolytes, organic minerals and B vitamins to fuel the body and fight exhaustion - helping exercise enthusiast maintain energy and focus every time they were active. This proprietary blend combines to produce the safest and healthiest sports supplement on the market. They eventually named the supplement Biosteel.
Today BioSteel is the #1 purchased product in North American Pro Sports and is endorsed by the likes of Dez Bryant of the Dallas Cowboys, PGA Golfers Hunter Mahan and Jordan Spieth, and Montreal Canadiens netminder Carey Price amongst many other athletes.
For many players this event will represent a once in a lifetime opportunity. The picturesque City of Stratford as our tournament backdrop and the historic Allman arena with its storied hockey history as our stage, will promise an unforgettable classic hockey experience for all players and all in attendance throughout the week. Thanks to BioSteel Sports the week long hockey experience for the players just got better!
