Sales Pitch: Kickers

The fact that other wearable fail to focus on kicks as one of the most important activity during playing, puts Kickers on the map as one of the best in the market today (Page 13). Most players tend to neglect jumping as part of measurable which eventually leads serious injuries. As such, this wearable helps to ensure that a trainer is aware about their kicking. 

According to reports, Kicking accounts for most injuries during sports. Until it’s too late, players remain oblivious about the importance of measuring kicking when measuring other aspects (Sultan 523). In addition, kickers is also useful when one is recovering from a leg injury. The wearable helps to monitor the healing process and prevents one from further strains once there is a problem. 

While critics may argue that kicking is negligible when it comes to measurements, it is quite the opposite. As such, this wearable not only provides a solution in terms of measure but also acts as a therapy kit. It works by wearing it on the on the foot as they Kick and practice while transmitting data to the kick App or a mobile tablet. There is beauty in the simple way that kickers gathers data. Kickers,  are more than just comfort because they give you an option to monitor your strength as a sportsman. 

Kickers is the new sport technology app in town that has identified the need to measure kicks. According to Borges (239), the product was recently approved by the NCAA and this paved the way for college teams to start using the devices. As a result, this has opened up the product for major adoption across the sports industry. What other way of launching the product than letting the users tell of their experiences? Kickers,  more than just comfort.
