EA Sports teams with Toy Island for sports toys

A new line of EA SPORTS branded sports equipment created by Toy Island will be in stores and available for purchase this fall, if you care for such things. Designed with youngsters in mind (ages 5 and up), Toy Island has begun rolling out the Sweet Spot Sports, Voice Command and Sure Shot lineup of EA SPORTS-branded products. All products will be on shelves by early October and include Sweet Spot Football, Sweet Spot Baseball with Bat, Sweet Spot Hockey Stick and Puck, and Sweet Spot Basketball and Hoop. Those products will retail for $14.99-$19.99 USD. The Sweet Spot Sports line of products comes with special electronic features that emit an audio reward when a user hits or holds the ball in the right spot, which hypothetically helps improve a youngster’s accuracy and hand-eye coordination.

The Voice Command and Sure Shot product lines, which have MSRPs between $69.99-$79.99, feature interactive training tools with instructional coaching to help athletes ages 5 and up hone their techniques in a particular sport. These products include the Voice Command Pitching Machine, Voice Command Quarterback, Sure Shot Basketball, and Sure Shot Hockey and Sure Shot Soccer combo (Available Exclusively at Target Stores).
