🚨 PARTNERSHIP ANNOUNCEMENT: BLUE CHIP x HEAD 🎾
It’s been a pretty good week for HEAD.
On Sunday, Sascha Zverev won the US Open. 🏆
Today, Blue Chip Sports Management and HEAD announce that we’re getting the band back together for 2027.
So, naturally, this is the second biggest HEAD announcement of the week. 😂
All joking aside, this one means a little more to me.
HEAD supported Blue Chip from 2015–2020, during an incredibly important period in our growth. They believed in what we were building, supported our professionals and programs, and were instrumental in helping Blue Chip become the company it is today.
Now we get to do it again.
Beginning in 2027, HEAD will once again become an official partner of Blue Chip Sports Management.
And since we’re talking HEAD, I’ll also use this opportunity to remind everyone of an indisputable fact:
🎾 The i.Radical MP is the greatest racquet of all time.
My college racquet of choice. I will be taking no questions at this time. 😂
💬 “There are partnerships you sign, and there are partnerships that have history behind them. HEAD was instrumental in Blue Chip’s growth from 2015 through 2020, so having the opportunity to bring these two brands back together is special to me. We’ve both grown tremendously since then, and I’m excited to see what we can build together in 2027 and beyond.”
— Tim Bainton, Founder, Blue Chip Sports Management
A huge thank you to Todd White for his support in bringing this relationship back together. 🤝
Nearly two decades into the Blue Chip journey, I still believe the best business gets done through good people, strong relationships and a handshake.
Some things don’t need reinventing.
Sometimes you just need to get the band back together. 🎸🎾
Welcome back, HEAD.
🤝 Handshakes and smiles.
