BOSTON, MA, March 1, 2010 – Global athletic leader New Balance is proud to announce an official multi-year partnership with the National Scholastic Sports Foundation (NSSF) in the Outdoor Nationals event, renamed the New Balance Outdoor Nationals. The event brings together the best outdoor track and field high school athletes from across the country for a weekend of intense competition.

“New Balance is thrilled to partner with the NSSF for the New Balance Outdoor Nationals,” said Josh Rowe, marketing manager, running at New Balance. “Being an official sponsor of this premier running event is an exciting way for us to reach out to and support the high school track and field running community and continue to highlight our innovative performance products and unique brand attributes.”
