Following its launch at the end of May 2024, CWENCH Hydration has established a robust brand profile among professional athletes and fans of all ages. As detailed in Cizzle Brands’ Market Introduction press release , NHL players including Nathan MacKinnon and Cole Caufield have endorsed CWENCH Hydration as well as NBA All-Star Andrew Wiggins, Canadian Olympian Adriana Leon and up-and-coming hockey stars Gavin McKenna, Chloe Primerano and Jade Iginla. Additionally, CWENCH Hydration is the named sponsor of a four-rink hockey arena in Toronto known as CWENCH Centre – a Canlan Sports Community as well as a sponsor of over 500 youth hockey teams, which has the CWENCH brand displayed on the hockey gear of more than 12,000 youth hockey players across North America.

Cizzle Brands Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, John Celenza, commented, ‘In many ways, Coach Chippy represents so much of what is great about youth hockey – passion, commitment and a great sense of joy. His message resonates with so many kids. As a dad myself, I hear about Coach Chippy all the time and know how much clout he has with one of our key demographics for CWENCH Hydration. Chippy has been a part of the Cizzle Brands story since the early days of the Company, and we are thrilled to be deepening our partnership with him to further strengthen the profile of CWENCH Hydration in hockey communities across North America.’

Coach Chippy added, ‘I’ve had a bunch of companies hit me up about product partnerships, but teaming up with the crew at Cizzle Brands was a no-brainer. When you’re dialed in on being your best, CWENCH Hydration is the real deal. It’s all-natural, sugar-free, and loaded with 6+ electrolytes. The product being healthy was a big deal for me—it’s one of the main reasons I decided to put my name (and face) behind it. Staying hydrated the smart way is a huge part of the whole Style and Flow vibe. I’m really excited to bring Tropical Flow to the market.’
