McDavid Sports Medicine has partnered with Inside Lacrosse as part of an effort to increase its presence within the lacrosse market. The arrangement with Inside Lacrosse gives McDavid’s HexPad collection of protective apparel an on-field presence at some premier collegiate lacrosse events this spring.




The agreement comes just over a year after the company signed Ryan Boyle, one of the premier stars in professional lacrosse, to a partnership. Boyle is a member of the Philadelphia Barrage of Major League Lacrosse and the New York Titans of the National Lacrosse League.





The partnership with Inside Lacrosse puts McDavid in front of well-over 100,000 core lacrosse enthusiasts during premier events this spring, including:






  • The Face-Off Classic – featuring Princeton-Hopkins and Duke-Maryland at the M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore on Feb. 28.



  • The Big City Classic -triple header on Apr. 4, 2009 at Giants Stadium, East Rutherford, NJ featuring Virginia-North Carolina, Pennsylvania-Syracuse and the University of Delaware taking on Hofstra.



  • Day of Rivals – Apr. 11 at M&T Bank Stadium on Apr. 11 featuring Army-Navy and Johns Hopkins-Maryland.


“This partnership with Inside Lacrosse and the events that we will be involved with give us an opportunity to expand our messaging to this marketplace,” said Rey Corpuz, director of marketing for McDavid.
