New Balance Continues Annual Support for WWUA

May 28th, 2025

New Balance has been a top supporter for the last 11 sessions of the Wound Warrior Umpire Academy. For each class, New Balance donates plate and base umpire shoes for every student. In past years, attendees recieved Tech tees, Polo shirts, shorts, and slides.

New Balance for the second year in a row is giving a $5 donation for each plate and base umpire shoe sold (up to 400 pairs) at Ump Attire for two weeks and thru the first day of WWUA, June 13th. Ump Attire is also giving its customers $10 off. Order a Pair and Help Us Support WWUA!

 

"When we say our program saves lives, we mean it — and we couldn’t do what we do without the support of New Balance and Ump Attire. New Balance has been more than a sponsor; they’ve been part of our mission for several years now. Their generosity in providing shoes, apparel, and financial support every year helps us give veterans more than just equipment for a trade — it helps restore their confidence, dignity, and sense of belonging. The same goes for Ump Attire, who has stood by us as our most dedicated sponsor literally since day one. These companies aren’t just helping us put uniforms on veterans — they’re helping rebuild lives, and for that, I’ll always be grateful."
From Major Greg Wilson, WWUA President

Thank you New Balance for your continued support!
