Warrior Sports acquired Made In America (MIA) Sports, a manufacturer of hockey gloves, sports bags, pant covers and accessories based in Montreal. MIA Sports has approximately 23 associates, including Stephane Paul, Sales Manager, and Chris Paul, Pro Services who will all remain with the company. The first Warrior branded products will debut for the 2008 hockey season. The company has a long service history with the National Hockey League for player’s gloves and team repairs.

“MIA Sports’ focus on innovative product development, creative thinking and continuous improvement matches well with Warriors’ brand strengths of product integrity and youthful inspiration,” says Dave Morrow, President of Warrior Sports. “Adding MIA’s extensive line under the Warrior brand will enable us to offer a complete package of high performance hockey products for teams and individual players across all levels.”

“We look forward to merging our innovative technical and manufacturing capabilities with Warrior's original design vision and solid distribution network, says Michel Paul, MIA Sports President. “Warrior has already made great strides within the professional and amateur hockey market in establishing themselves as a unique performance brand. I am confident our extensive experience will contribute to their continued growth.”
