PHOENIX, March 21, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Fans
always wonder what athletes do in their free time. Some spend time
with family or take a vacation but eight major leaguers bucked that
trend and decided to become entrepreneurs. They invented the next
great recreational game, CupCheck. The game is a fun and high
profile project that will revolutionize "backyard sports."
Purchasing the product will also support an often overlooked but
very important cause. CupCheck has committed to donating a portion
of every game sold to testicular cancer research.
Kevin Jepsen, who spent most of
his career pitching for the Los Angeles Angels, is the CEO of
CupCheck. He says as soon as you start playing the game, it is
impossible to put it down. "We've all had a blast playing this game
which is why we wanted to share it with outdoor game fans
everywhere," said Jepsen. "Wherever the game is set up, it draws a
crowd and that's what anyone who buys this game can expect. The
best part is you can play it anywhere," he continued.
The current and former MLB Players involved in the launch are
Yasiel Puig, Evan Longoria, Kevin
Jepsen, Kirby Yates,
Garrett Richards, Alex Cobb, Matt
Andriese and Curt Casali. At
a get together, the players assembled a homemade version of the
game and ended up playing for hours. After setting it up at a
NASCAR event, they drew such a crowd with the game that they
watched others play for hours and realized they had a potential hit
product on their hands. Thus CupCheck was born.
This "play anywhere," competitive disc game combines skill and
endurance as players defend their post from opposing teams,
providing friends and family with hours of competition. The rules
of CupCheck are simple; each player throws a flying disc at the
opponent's poles, either trying to make it through the two polls or
knocking the cups off. Because of the base at the bottom of the
posts, consumers can play in the gym, on sporting fields, at the
beach, in the backyard, tailgating, on vacation, while camping or
on campus.
For a visual explanation of CupCheck, viewers can watch drone
footage on the website to learn how to play the game, read more
detailed rules, and learn from the players how to assemble the
game.
CupCheck is a Phoenix-based
product that will be launched into different national markets
throughout the year. The game in now available for pre-order
purchase on CupCheckGame.com.
