Performance Sports Group Ltd., the parent of Bauer, announced that Larry
Lucchino, president/CEO of the Boston Red Sox, has joined the companys
board of directors.

Performance Sports Group holds the No. 1
North American position in baseball and softball and is the global

of the Red Sox since 2002 and was instrumental in ending Bostons
86-year championship drought in 2004 and the Red Sox World Series
victories in 2007 and 2013.

Lucchino, an avid sportsman, is
perhaps the only person to have won a World Series ring, a Super Bowl
ring and an NCAA Final Four watch. Lucchino earned three World Series
titles with the Red Sox and one with the Baltimore Orioles (1983), won a
Super Bowl title (1983) as Vice-President/General Counsel and a Board
Member of the Washington Redskins, and was a point guard on the
Princeton basketball team that played in the 1965 Final Four.

The
appointment of Larry Lucchino to our Board further strengthens our
position as one of the leading multi-brand sports companies in the
world, said Kevin Davis, president and CEO of Performance Sports Group.
Not only does Larry bring a wealth of baseball knowledge to our
growing baseball business, he also brings an extensive background in
many other sports as well as a high level of expertise in global
commerce, which will be a significant asset as we look to expand our
business in key regions around the world.

Born in Pittsburgh,
Lucchino graduated with honors from Princeton University, where he
played basketball four years and was a member of two Ivy League
championship basketball teams.  He then graduated from Yale Law School,
and in 1974, joined the Washington, D.C. law firm, Williams and
Connolly.  He became a partner in 1978, specializing in sports law and
litigation.

Lucchino has vast experience in international
baseball and pioneered ground-breaking relationships.  In 1996, as
president and CEO of the San Diego Padres, Lucchino led the effort to
play a series in Monterrey, Mexico, Major League Baseballs first-ever
regular season games played outside the United States and Canada.  In
1997, Lucchino forged an innovative relationship in Japan with the Chiba
Lotte Marines.  In 2008, he led the Red Sox on their first trip to
Japan, where the team opened the MLB regular season with two games at
the Tokyo Dome.

I am eager to help Performance Sports Group
fulfill its commitment to grow sports participation, Lucchino said.
Growing baseball and softball at the grassroots level is important to
kids, to the sport, and to me personally.  The positive, profound impact
that sports can have on young people inspires me to explore the new
avenues that Performance Sports Group offers.

Lucchino, a
two-time cancer survivor, serves on the board of trustees for the Dana
Farber Cancer Institute and served as the co-chair of the Dana Farber
Cancer Institutes $1 billion Mission Possible Capital Campaign.  He
also serves on the board of Special Olympics International.

In
connection with Lucchinos appointment, Samuel Frieder resigned from the
board of directors effective today, maintaining the boards composition
of nine members.

Sam was a member of our inaugural board of
directors in 2008 and has provided us with invaluable support and
guidance during the past six years, Davis said. We thank Sam for his
commitment and dedication in helping us build our company to what it is
today.”
