The WV Knuckleheads Baseball organization was founded by Jay Cox and Mike Keiffer in 2014 and is one of the most recognized travel baseball programs in West Virginia.

Since the organization’s inception, it has grown into seven highly competitive age divisions that compete throughout the Southeastern US. The program’s foundation is built on teaching leadership and life lessons through the game of baseball to better prepare kids for not only the next level of baseball, but also the next steps in life.

In 2017, they decided to host their own baseball tournament with a focus on honoring veterans. They asked Advantage Business to come up with a wide variety of tournament promotions, prizes, and signage for the event.

Advantage Business first started with specially designed hats for the hosting team (Knuckleheads) for the tournament.

Commemorative t-shirts were designed and produced for resale during the tournament and served as an additional fund raiser. The design of the shirt married the elements of baseball and military service together that resulted in unique apparel that was a huge hit with all who attended.

Awards were designed to be quite different than the typical baseball trophies. Custom coins were designed and produced to honor the first place team. Second place was awarded custom dog tags with the tournament brand. This provided a great connection to the military theme.

Signage and tournament elements to be used during the event were also designed and produced by Advantage Business. Flyers were produced to be used as invitations to other teams leading up to the tournament. Banners displayed on site during the event to detail specifics of the tournament and build excitement during the tournament weekend. Even custom pitch count cards were created with tournament branding to keep track of the each pitchers’ statistics.

The tournament was a huge success with participating teams coming from as far as several states away. Not only was it a great event for the kids to host, but the proceeds from the tournament allowed the organization to invest in additional equipment and training for the players.
