Playfinity, a whole new way to play baseball

Playfinity, a Norwegian sports-tech company founded by four dads with backgrounds in tech, design, and play, is driving a movement towards a more active future for today’s youth by combining gaming, technology, and sports.

With an excessive amount of digital entertainment contributing to an increase in mental, physical, and emotional health issues in children today, Playfinity has developed innovative and engaging games to get kids off the couch and outside!

One of their latest products, the Playfinity Gaming Baseball, is a smart baseball that connects to a free app packed with interactive games intended to improve children’s field skills. Kids can play solo, with friends, or challenge players around the world in a virtual league. To explain more about how the ball works and the benefits of active gaming, Pippa Boothman, the CEO of Playfinity, recently appeared on a lifestyle show.

Boothman explained that the ball is a “real” baseball in terms of size and weight and that children can play games such as pitch, catch, and home run derby, with a way to track improvement and progress. She also highlighted that coaches can use the ball during practices to help their players improve their skills.

Boothman also emphasized the concept of active gaming, where Playfinity turns screen time into outdoor fun. Rather than passively staring at screens, children can engage in physical activity while still enjoying gaming experiences. Each experience provides the opportunity to play solo or participate in a healthy competition against friends or players from around the world.

Playfinity’s mission is to encourage children to be more active while having fun. They are promoting a healthy and active lifestyle for today’s youth. To learn more about Playfinity and its products, visit their website at www.playfinity.com.
