Concord, MA - March 14, 2025 - ThumbPRO®, a trusted thumb protector designed to safeguard all athletes, including youth athletes, from hand injuries caused by bat vibration, reminds parents, coaches, and youth baseball and softball players to prioritize proactive hand safety measures as the spring season commences. The company emphasizes that preventative steps are crucial to help avoid common hand injuries that can sideline athletes.
Youth baseball and softball players are particularly susceptible to hand injuries during the spring season. The combination of increased practice intensity, the return to competitive play, and the developing nature of young athletes' hands creates a heightened risk from injury due to bat vibration. ThumbPRO®’s mission is to empower parents, coaches, and players with the knowledge and tools to protect against these injury risks.
“Spring training and the start of the season are exciting times, but it’s crucial to remember that proactive protection is essential for every player and every player should have access to safety gear at the plate,” says Nina Nickles, CEO of ThumbPRO®. “Hand injuries can sideline all baseball and softball players, including young athletes. For youth athletes, in particular, these types of hand injuries can disrupt their development, along with their confidence at the plate and their passion for the game. By incorporating preventative measures, such as using ThumbPRO®’s protective thumb guards, players can confidently step up to the plate.”
ThumbPRO®’s thumb protectors are designed to mitigate bat sting, help prevent common hand injuries, and enhance grip, providing crucial protection without hindering performance. The ergonomic design ensures comfort and stability, allowing players to focus on their game.
