Hyperice has formed a new multi-year partnership with the New Zealand Rugby Teams, All Blacks, All Blacks Sevens, and Black Ferns, as their Official Recovery Technology Supplier.
The partnership will provide each player with individual ‘HyperKits’, as well as sideline and training room access to the full suite of Hyperice and NormaTec technologies including the Hypervolt, Hypersphere Mini, Vyper and Venom lines.
“For more than 100 years, the All Blacks have created a tradition of unrivaled excellence that has long been studied by teams, coaches and even CEOs around the world,” said Joe Cannon, vice president of business development at Hyperice. “One key factor that continues to drive the All Blacks’ dominance is their commitment to innovation in athlete care, both on and off the pitch. With this first of its kind partnership in international rugby, the All Blacks will have access to Hyperice technologies for warm-up, body maintenance, recovery, and even during match play.”
All Blacks Strength & Conditioning Coach Nic Gill said recovery was a crucial and constant part of the team’s daily routine: “Our players work extremely hard in the gym, on the training field and in the playing arena and Hyperice technology plays a key role in both guarding against injury and ensuring an athlete’s body is performing to its potential every day.”
