PANDA Stronger and Contender Uniforms Announce Strategic Alliance to Elevate Sports Organizations
State College, PA (February 10, 2025) – Parc Sports LLC (d/b/a PANDA Stronger), a premier athletic sports management platform, is excited to announce a strategic alliance with Contender Uniforms, a leading provider of high-quality sports apparel based in Annapolis, Maryland. This collaboration brings together two organizations dedicated to serving the same market—youth athletes, sports clubs, middle and high school athletic departments, and colleges—by providing seamless, cost-effective solutions that enhance the athletic experience.
“An alliance between our two companies makes perfect strategic sense for the organizations and athletes we serve,” said Glen Parrillo, Founder and CEO of Parc Sports LLC. “Both of our companies cater to the same demographic, offering completely complementary services. At PANDA Stronger, our vision has always been to support every stakeholder in the athletic ecosystem—athletic directors, club registrars, coaches, athletes, and parents—by providing affordable, comprehensive solutions. This alliance is a major step forward in streamlining operations and delivering even greater value to our clients.”
With operations in State College, PA, Annapolis, MD, and Indianapolis, IN, PANDA Stronger provides fully integrated athletic technology solutions designed to empower schools, sports clubs, and athletes. With clients in over 20 states, PANDA Stronger is committed to leveling the playing field, ensuring that all athletes, schools, and clubs have access to high-quality software tools without prohibitive costs.
Contender Uniforms brings over a decade of experience in providing custom sports apparel to clubs, colleges, and middle and high schools throughout Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. “Contender is not your typical apparel company,” said Marc Whynock, Co-Founder and CEO of Contender Uniforms. “We have the capability to produce uniforms and spirit wear for any school, club, or collegiate organization. As an approved reseller for New Balance, Under Armour, and Adidas, we can deliver high-quality products at below market rates.” Justus Burkhardt, Co-Founder of Contender Uniforms added, “Just like PANDA Stronger, we help sports organizations maximize their budgets while delivering excellence.”
Mr. Parrillo, a licensed CPA, emphasized the importance of cost efficiency, particularly in today’s inflationary economic climate. “Schools and youth sports organizations are facing increasing financial pressure. Our alliance with Contender Uniforms is designed to combat rising costs. While many service providers are raising prices, we are committed to driving costs down while maintaining superior quality and exceptional customer service. I challenge anyone to find better technology than PANDA Stronger or better apparel solutions than Contender. We are excited about this partnership and the benefits it will bring to our clients, helping them deliver the quality their athletes, parents, and coaches deserve.”
