New Coastal, the Premiere Source for CBD Products Promoting Health, Becomes Official Wellness Provider to Retired NFL Players Congress

New Coastal’s deal with the Retired NFL Players Congress covers 20,000+ retired professional athletes and includes multi-faceted marketing and cross-promotion campaigns

 

[COSTA MESA, CA, December 2019] New Coastal, the leading source for full-spectrum CBD-infused health and beauty products designed to ease suffering, promote well-being and combat the worldwide opioid crisis, has been named Official Wellness Provider of the Retired NFL Players Congress.

 

The historic and unprecedented partnership will benefit the more than 20,000 retired NFL athletes in the organization.  With studies showing that CBD can help with pre and post-concussion symptoms, as well as PTSD, the partnership is a natural fit.  The two organizations are dedicated to continued research in hopes of finding better, natural, solutions for veterans of the gridiron and veterans of our armed forces.

 

Ron Brown, the co-founder of New Coastal, was instrumental in the deal. An Olympic gold medalist and All-Pro NFL football player with over 20 years of business experience, Mr. Brown has a passion for causes aimed at treating PTSD and concussion syndromes. It’s also apparent that he still values good teamwork.

 

“The Congress chose to work with New Coastal because they’re putting together a team that can really make a difference,” Mr. Brown said. “I love that New Coastal’s products are extremely high-quality and that they’re backed by unique CBD DNA scientific testing.”

 

When you combine the proprietary formulas we’ve made with the help of the geneticists at Endocanna Health, with the doctors we’re working with, like Dr. Patterson from Casa Colina and Dr. Martin at Loma Linda, I think it puts us in the position to offer the highest quality products out there both now and in the future.  We’ll continue to do more research, but I think we have a team that is pro bowl caliber.”

Pioneer Player Check & Jacket Presented to 92-year-old NFL Great, Fred “Curly” Morrison 

The Retired Players Congress’ Pioneer Fund, is one of the special programs that we have set up to recognize and help our Players Congress members once they reach 90 years of age. The average number of these surviving players generally stands at about 75 men each year.


Please take a moment to see the pictures and video clip of our latest delivery, below, of a check and official Players Congress jacket to Fred “Curly” Morrison. 

 

Former Chicago Bear and Cleveland Brown, “Curly” Morrison, was a Rose Bowl MVP for Ohio State, the first color commentator for the NFL, founder of the Pebble Beach Legends Golf Tournament, and the fullback for the Browns in the years between Marion Motley and Jim Brown. “Curly” was also a member of the group that facilitated the sale of the Cleveland Browns to the legendary Art Modell. He has spent a lifetime quietly helping retired players who found themselves in need of a little helping hand ($$$) from time to time as well as assisting children and military veterans who were in need.

 

Thank you “Curly” for your wonderful contributions to the game and those in need. The Retired Players Congress staff and members are glad that we were able to congratulate on your 92nd year and are glad that we are now able to give you a little back in recognition of your work and life.

 

Enjoy the pictures and a short video.
