Basketball Star Caitlin Clark Partners with Wilson

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS (May 21, 2024) – Wilson Sporting Goods Co. announced a multiyear partnership with Indiana Fever rookie guard Caitlin Clark as part of its athlete roster. Wilson will roll out signature basketball collections celebrating Clark’s continued legacy, as well as work with her to innovate product across the WNBA, NBA and basketball at large.

“Wilson is made to celebrate the most iconic moments in sport, and we have always aligned ourselves with trailblazers who break boundaries and write their own story,” says Amanda Lamb, Head of Global Brand at Wilson. “Caitlin Clark is not just a record-setting athlete, but a cultural icon who has had a profound impact on the game. We couldn’t be prouder to join forces with her to continue innovating basketball both on and off the court.”

Clark became the NCAA Division I all-time leading scorer and led the University of Iowa to consecutive NCAA tournament national runner-up finishes.

As part of Clark’s role, she will test, advise and provide feedback on a range of Wilson basketball products; further advancing how Wilson continues to improve the game from youth to pro. Wilson will drop collections that celebrate Clark throughout the rest of 2024, as well as work with her to creatively direct her first signature basketball line that will debut later this year.

“Wilson has been with me across some of the most pivotal moments in my career so far, and I couldn’t be more excited to continue driving basketball forward alongside them,” Clark said. “It feels surreal to have my own basketball collection, and to affect what that means for future generations of athletes.”

The first drop in the collection went live on May 21. It featured Wilson’s classic white and gold WNBA basketball with personalized laser engravings celebrating iconic Clark moments. Consumers can choose one of three designs to personalize their basketball. This drop was available exclusively at Wilson.com.

Building upon Wilson’s vision to create a better world through sport, a key component of this collaboration will be to enable access to play for youth across the country. Products within the collection will be available for consumers at a variety of price points and across Wilson’s direct-to-consumer channels and key retailers. In addition, Wilson will support the Caitlin Clark Foundation and aid in its mission of uplifting and improving the lives of youth and their communities through education, nutrition and sport– three pillars Caitlin believes were foundational in her success.
