SKLZ

edit

I am currently trying to create a page for SKLZ- a sporting goods manufacturer, and yes a company that I work for- I know this can reflect a conflict of interest but I truly feel that this page can prove to be a great resource for wikipedia users- especially those who are athletes. I would like input on how I can develop this page in a neutral point of view. My goals would be to provide a resource for athletes who are looking for new trends in the athletic performance market which is growing immensely. SKLZ is different because above manufacturing products, providing a resource for athletes to get better is the company's main mission- hence the training videos/articles and more that are on the SKLZ.com site. Any insight would be helpful.


SKLZ[1] is a manufacturer of athletic performance and skill development training tools [2] across a variety of sports, including baseball, fastpitch, golf, football, basketball, soccer and more.
