Cognizin, a natural nootropic, has undergone rigorous clinical testing and has been shown to enhance attention, psychomotor speed, and memory, providing athletes with the mental clarity and focus they need during intense training and competitions. L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine, an amino acid blend, optimizes electrolyte and water absorption, resulting in rapid and deep hydration. Additionally, Launch Hydrate has more electrolytes than the leading products on the market. 

 

To kick off the partnership Launch Hydrate will set up an activation at Perfect Game’s East Cobb complex, starting Memorial Day weekend and running through the end of July. Athletes, coaches, and family members participating in events at the East Cobb complex this summer will have the opportunity to stop by the “Launch Pad” to cool down and rehydrate in between games.   

  

"We are thrilled to partner with Launch Hydrate as the official sports drink of Perfect Game," said Perfect Game CEO, Rob Ponger. "At Perfect Game, we are committed to providing athletes with the best resources to succeed, and Launch Hydrate aligns perfectly with our mission. Their advanced formulation and dedication to athlete well-being make them the ideal hydration partner for our organization."  

  

The Launch Pad will be conveniently located at the main entrance of Perfect Game’s East Cobb complex and will serve as a hub for athletes to relax, recover, and rehydrate. Athletes will find a welcoming oasis equipped with misters, shade, and the opportunity to try and purchase all four delicious and refreshing flavors of Launch Hydrate, including fruit punch, orange, tropical, and strawberry lemon.  

  

"We are excited to introduce Launch Hydrate to the athletes participating in Perfect Game's East Cobb activation," said Dillon Houstoun, VP of Finance and Operations for Launch Hydrate. "By offering a dedicated place for athletes to recover and allowing them to sample our four incredible flavors, we aim to provide them with a hydration experience that is both enjoyable and performance-enhancing. Launch Hydrate is dedicated to supporting athletes in their pursuit of excellence, and we take pride in being a part of Perfect Game's premier event. We believe that our innovative sports drink will fuel their performance, allowing them to perform at their best and win the moment.”  

  

Launch Hydrate is now available for purchase online at www.launchhydrate.com and on Amazon in 12-unit cases. The product comes in convenient 16.9 oz bottles, perfect for athletes on the go.
