The Play Hard Don't Blink sports eye safety program works with leagues and individuals in Ohio to promote the use of protective eyewear to reduce the number of sports eye injuries in Ohio's young players. ATLL has received 300 batting helmets for use in league play. Managers are encourged to complete and submit the pre-season and post-season surveys as these are required to receive equipment from Superspecs.
Please complete and submit a few simple questions for the pre-season survey.Both the pre-season and post-season surveys are a requirement for ATLL to participate in the Play Hard Don't Blink Program.
