Herbalife Nutrition (NYSE: HLF), a premier global nutrition
company whose purpose is to make the world healthier and happier,
today announced a two-year partnership with IMPACT Basketball,
renaming their newest, state-of-the-art facility in Las Vegas the
Herbalife Nutrition IMPACT Basketball Center. As the official title
and sports nutrition sponsor, the Company’s team of sports
nutritionists will provide basketball players with customized
nutrition plans to help elevate their game. The partnership
includes athletes’ access to Herbalife24 NSF Certified for Sports®
product line at all three of their training facilities in Las
Vegas, Nevada, Sarasota, Florida and Los Angeles, California.
"We are thrilled to be the official sports nutrition partner for
the new Herbalife Nutrition IMPACT Basketball Centers to provide
athletes with proper nutrition during their rigorous training
regimens,” said Ibi Montesino, senior vice president and
managing director, North America region, Herbalife Nutrition.
At the opening event, former NBA players Patrick O’Bryant, who
spent his 13-year career playing for the Golden State Warriors and
Boston Celtics, Tyronn Lue, former Head Coach for the Cleveland
Cavaliers and an 11-year veteran of the LA Lakers and seven other
NBA teams, along with IMPACT’s founder, Joe Abunassar, led a
basketball clinic to offer coaching tips for local students from
Teach for America (TFA). From on-court play to practice drills and
conditioning, 30 students were able to experience high-level
training at a young age.
“We are excited to have provided this unique opportunity. It’s a
great way for them to stay healthy and active,” said Sean Parker,
executive director of Teach for America. “Research shows kids who
participate in sports have a higher academic achievement, lower
dropout rates and develop essential skills like team work and time
management.”

development strategy,” said Joe Abunassar, founder and president of
the Herbalife Nutrition IMPACT Basketball Centers. “This
partnership will not only benefit our players here at the Herbalife
Nutrition IMPACT Basketball Center, but also the trainers at our
other facilities and through our online programs, which will now
include nutritional videos and blogs.”
