Helping Young Athletes Succeed: Interview With Goose Gossage #HormelFamily

September 30, 2015 by Beeb Leave a Comment

Goose Gossage enjoying Skippy PB

I’m currently a member of the Hormel Foods Extended Family Blogger Program and this post is part of my involvement with the group. While Hormel Foods has provided me material and necessary resources, including products and same-as-cash gift cards, to complete the activities shared on my blog, all statements and sentiment in MomStart are my own.

Richard “Goose” Gossage is an iconic Major League Baseball star and Hall of Famer. He’s also passionate about helping young people get involved in sports, so he’s partnered with Hormel to spread the word about the importance of providing kids with the right fuel to perform at their best. Goose hopped on the phone with me recently to share some tips to help parents support their kids in their after-school activities:

Beeb Ashcroft: I’d like to start off by learning a little bit more about why you’ve partnered with Hormel for this back-to-school season.

Goose Gossage: You know, Hormel has [always] been a food in our cupboards with SKIPPY Peanut Butter, and SPAM has been a part of our outdoor activities; being in Colorado, we live a very, very active lifestyle out here being in the mountains. And Hormel has provided us throughout raising 3 kids – even when I was a kid, SKIPPY Peanut Butter was a staple food in our cupboard way back in the day. And SPAM of course has been around for a long time. They’ve [also] got some great new products: The Hormel Pepperoni Stix and the Hormel Rev Wraps, each one has [at least] 12 grams of protein, and parents can pack it around with active lifestyles, schlepping kids from sport to sport to ensure their kids stay energized, before practice and through the game. You know, the new products – the SKIPPY P.B. Bites, man I wish we’d had these around when I was a kid. This is a brand new product that captures the signature SKIPPY taste in a bite-sized creation, with a crunchy center and a soft peanut butter coating. So perfect for snacking on or in the dugout on game days – during the game, after the game, before the game – so I wish we’d had these SKIPPY P.B. Bites when I was a kid.

Beeb Ashcroft: And I’m sure as an athlete, you can attest to how important it is to have good nutrition and protein-filled snacks for activities like sports.

Goose Gossage: Oh, absolutely, and not only for grown ups but especially for kids, because kids stay so active. And you’ve gotta kinda force them to eat their protein so they can have that reserve of energy to get ’em through the day, to get ’em through maybe a couple of sports – I know a few kids that play a couple of different sports at the same time, so going from practice to practice, you need to keep up that energy reserve. And Hormel with their protein in their products really is the ticket for these active lifestyles of these kids today.

Beeb Ashcroft: So, you’ve got the lunch for the kids; once you have that, what are some other hints for parents to help them support their kids and encourage them if they want to pursue sports?

Goose Gossage: Well, I was very lucky, Beeb, to have parents that supported me in everything that I did. I was a pitcher – I tried out for my team when I was 8 years old and they said, “You’re gonna be our pitcher”older products, fit the bill for sustaining this energy that it takes to play all these sports.

Goose Gossage

Beeb Ashcroft: And so they have something they can pack in their lunch and take with them when they’re running around doing all this stuff, right?

Goose Gossage: Absolutely! You know, in baseball in particular, they did a bat bag – we used to throw peanut butter and jelly sandwiches into our kids’ bat bags and into their packs that they carried to the games, and then we had to remind them that hey, that sandwich is there for a good reason, and that’s to eat it! You know, you gotta kinda stay on kids. Hormel has always provided this for me even when I was growing up as a kid, and now these new products and all the protein that they add, the Hormel Rev wraps, the Hormel Pepperoni Stix, and the Hormel Natural Choice – this is a great product. Pre-packaged deli meats sure to be delicious, affordable, and contain no preservatives or artificial ingredients. So, these Natural Choices are really a great product for the active family.

Beeb Ashcroft: Is that your choice for a sandwich, get the Natural Choice Meats on there?

Goose Gossage: Absolutely! They come in little packets that are easy to just throw ’em right into the kids’ packs, and they’ve got that to snack on throughout the game or throughout the day, to sustain that energy – people don’t really realize the energy that it takes for these kids and as a professional baseball player, to sustain that energy that it takes. If we’re not feeding our bodies with the fuel that it takes to sustain our energy, then we’re not gonna be able to perform on the field like we should. And these Hormel products are perfect for the active kid, for the active mom, for the active parents. We’ve gotta watch what our kids put into their bodies, so they can do the job on the field or their particular sport that they’re playing.

Beeb Ashcroft: And you hit on a good topic there, because like you said, kids’ school schedules are so packed these days with extracurricular activities – do you have any advice for parents for prioritizing which activities to choose from?

Goose Gossage: No, I think it really lies with the passion. If the kid has a passion for a particular sport, that’s what it takes to really be great at something is a passion. And because you don’t mind practices and you gotta practice to get better, so you know, these are things that you support your kids with whatever they want to do. I was always a stickler on hey, you’ve got to finish what you start. You know, pick a sport that you really do love, and you’re very passionate about, and give it your best shot. And that’s gonna bleed into your everyday life. I believe that every kid that has baseball, whether they make it to the big leagues or not is irrelevant. All the life lessons are out there on that baseball field and, you know, you’re gonna be a better person whether you make it to the big leagues or not, in anything that you do if you had played baseball because baseball is a failing sport. I can’t name anything else that you would fail 7 out of 10 times and be a star! So, learning to deal with failure – I think people are missing the boat on how sports really interacts with the kid later on in life. You know, how you deal with failure, that’s gonna directly correlate with how much success you had in life. And I believe that baseball is the greatest sport for preparing a kid for his future in whatever else he or she does.

Beeb Ashcroft: And you’re quite active in your own local community with youth sports, aren’t you?

Goose Gossage: Oh yeah. I love the kids – some of us never grow up, Beeb, I’m a perfect example of that and baseball has kept me young. I think sports lends a great life lesson to all the kids, and again, it goes back to dealing with that failure part of the game. And you know, food enters into this – Hormel is a perfect product again to, as a team, feed your kids, to prepare them, and to have with that fuel that will sustain them through these sports, it’s so important. I can’t tell you how important sports has been in my life, and I know what a role it played in my success as a person in life, so just give it your best shot – that’s what I tell kids all the time.

Organo Gold Sponsors Manny Pacquiao For The Fight of The Century #MayPac

May 1, 2015 by Beeb 1 Comment

Manny Pacquiao

Samples provided.

Tomorrow night, boxing fans will be glued to their TV sets watching the anticipated matchup between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, which is being dubbed “The fight of the century”. I follow MMA more closely than boxing, but this fight is so hyped that even casual viewers like me are eager to see what will happen.

There’s been a lot of coverage of the huge ticket prices and sponsorships during this bout, and one of the logos you’ll be seeing Manny Pacquiao sporting at tomorrow’s weigh-in is Organo Gold coffee – their Gourmet Café Latte is said to be his favorite “Sports drink”, which sounds like my kind of workout beverage! If you’re rooting for Pacquiao tomorrow night (As I am) and you like coffee, you can buy a special OG Promo Pack through May 10th for a chance to win autographed “Pacman” swag. They also have a recipe on their blog for fight night cookies that you can make to snack on during the match!

Who do you think will win tomorrow’s Mayweather vs. Pacquiao matchup?

Seattle Seahawks and Mariners OYO Sports Figures They Look & Feel Like LEGOS

November 11, 2014 by Momstart 2 Comments

This is a partnered post and all opinions are our own

OYO Sports has created sports figures that are buildable, playable and they look just like LEGO figures. I’m probably not allowed to say it but I am because it’s true. (I’m sure I’m supposed to say comparable to the leading building-block brand, but we all know who they are so I’m just going to say it like I did) We received the following sets and this is what my kids did with it:

  • Seattle Mariners Robinson Cano Limited Edition Minifigure
  • Seattle Mariners Kendrys Morales Limited Edition Minifigure
  • Seattle Mariners Starter Practice Field Set
  • Seattle Seahawks Kam Chancellor Limited Edition Minifigure
  • Seattle Seahawks Marshawn Lynch Limited Edition Minifigure

image

My kids took the sets and started building, they quickly found that their “leading brand building sets” fit together perfectly. image

Each character had to be put together and since we received a mix of Football players and Baseball players my kids turned the Seattle Seahawks into Baseball players and the Seattle Mariners into Football players. It was really cute and they played with them for hours. They had the guys running around the bases and I think they even made up their own game.

image

OYO Sportstoys make these figures and playsets for Football Hockey and Baseball. We’re huge baseball and football fans and were super excited when these showed up. The kids had to open them up 

The Story of OYO Sportstoys!

image

It all started at the ballpark. Shortly after building an elaborate starship from a popular building-block brand, a father took his son to Fenway Park to take in a Red Sox game. Taking in the sights and sounds of the park, a true New England rite of passage, the duo would begin exploring the confines of the park in search of toys. As their searches went without results, an idea was born: Creating mini-figures of athletes that kids could play baseball with.

Developing figures with rotating forearms, bending knees, and complete with the equipment of a true ballplayer — a ball, bat, and glove — the dynamics of the project were born. After many late nights of extensive patent work and distribution strategies, OYO obtained licenses with Major League Baseball and the MLB Player’s Association as its first professional sport.

image

But an OYO goes beyond a figure capable of poses previously impossible for building-block minifigures. The OYO packaging was intricately designed to be able to fit in a kid’s pocket while looking like both a toy and 3-D baseball card. Following many colors, concepts, and logos, the final OYO package was complete and the rest is history in the making!

They really did a great job and I can see us collecting more of them because we like having the Seattle Mariners and Seattle Seahawks minifigures to play with.

BOKS: Build Your Kids’ Success Launches in North Carolina with NBA Star, John Wall

September 4, 2012 by Momstart 9 Comments

By: Ashley

By now, I’m sure you’ve heard at least a little whisper here on MomStart about BOKS. This is a program that I am truly falling in love with. I am so happy to be a part of it.

clip_image002Build Our Kids’ Success (BOKS) is all about getting kids active. They’ve got the research behind them to show how valuable exercise and activity is for academic achievement. Yep, it’s true – active bodies do yield active minds!

At Hunter Elementary School in Raleigh, NC, I was lucky enough to be a part of the BOKS launch. First of all, I just want to say how completely impressed I was with this school. It was the first day of school, there was an assembly planned, a special superstar guest (the NBA’s John Wall) was scheduled to attend, media was present, they had just gotten back into their building 8 days prior (due to renovations)… and they were basically holding field day. ACK! The former teacher in me had a mini panic attack!

The truth is though, you would have never known the challenges Hunter was facing. It was one of the most organized, upbeat, vibrant schools I have been in. Is that the effect that BOKS is already having? Who knows? 😉

clip_image004clip_image006

The kids came into their first day of school, not knowing that a special guest was arriving to bring BOKS to their school. Local legend, college basketball superstar, and #1 NBA Draft pick – John Wall. While Wall didn’t attend Hunter Elementary, he grew up just down the street making Hunter the perfect school to work with on BOKS. John Wall spoke to the kids, answered questions, played games, and showed the students of Hunter Elementary that being active is good! (And FUN!)

It’s not surprising that BOKS is gaining momentum and popularity. The science is there. The plan is there. The support is there. If you want to learn more about BOKS, and bring it to your school, their website is full of great BOKS information. I have to warn you though, it’s going to set off a spark- the spark to get you going!

We also took the TOZZ camping with us. Miles calls it his football. He and his dad are looking forward to many games of catch. I like the TOZZ ball because of the hole in the middle, I think it’s easier for kids to catch and I once broke a finger trying to catch a football so the lightness of it makes me feel better as a mom. I just don’t want to see my son break a finger like me, I mean he’s already falling once a day anyway.

TOZZ™

TOZZ is a super-tough, soft-touch, great-grip football allowing you to get more out of your arm. TOZZ was made to grip it and rip it.

I took the CANZ to church one afternoon and we played with some friends. It was really cute to see Miles play with them. He put all of the red ones on his arm and he looked like a muscle man. Then they all took turns tossing them in and dumping them out. My kids being four and five they still love to dump things out.

Sports Moms Resource and a Gatorade Survival Pack Giveaway

April 16, 2011 by Momstart 447 Comments

With Winter over and Spring finally here we’re entering into Sports Season. Kids and moms will be busy busy busy going from activity to activity, and from practice to games. With all of this activity comes nutritional needs, and sometimes injuries and moms want to know how to take care of their kids under all conditions. Gatorade created the “Gatorade Sports Mom Study” to find out exactly what moms want to know. From the survey they found:

image

· Sports Moms are a big community 13 million strong. In fact, 7 of 10 moms are raising kids in competitive sports.
· Athletes have special nutritional needs to fuel sports performance and nutrition is where Sports Moms say they make the most impact on their young athletes’ success.
· Despite their commitment to nutrition, Sports Moms have concerns and uncertainties around their #1 role, including protein, hydration, pre- and post- game fuel.
· Sports Moms reported that there are additional nutritional challenges when raising an athlete including the fact that kids in sports eat an extra meal a week and two more meals away from home than kids who aren’t in sports.

Because Gatorade is really into supporting moms and sports they have developed a new resource for moms to connect and learn more about kids and sports. When Visiting the Sport Mom’s Resource you’ll find things like:

· Articles and advice discussing various topics including nutrition, hydration, sports injury and training and conditioning
· Meet real Sports Moms, not actors, as they share their stories about raising kids in sports
· Watch
Sports Mom TV, inspirational documentary webisodes featuring real Sports Moms of youth athletes and professional athletes
· Learn how Gatorade is scientifically formulated to give athletes the edge and about Gatorade’s 40+ years of science and athletic research

I received a really cool Sports Mom Survival Pack from Gatorade. It’s quite a treat. The running jacket is made of that dry wet material that keeps you dry while you work out, and it’s super nice quality. Of course I love the Gatorade too and I’ll be happy to give that to my kids in the following weeks. Zoe’s a lot like her dad, she likes anything other than water.

Gatorade Fuel Pack Tips to Prepare Kids for Sports and Improve Their Performance

December 17, 2010 by Momstart 520 Comments

Brook de LenchActivity is something that I push on my kids every day. My kids are still a very young age, 2 and 3 but I know how very important it is to get outside and play. Even when the weather is not very kind. Most kids are very active and then kids that are in sports are extremely active. Brook de Lench, author of Home Team Advantage: The Critical Role of Mothers in Youth Sports, had lots of great advice on how to prepare kids for sports and how to help student athletes perform their best. Brook de Lench is a mom, a former athlete, a youth coach, and founder of the sports parenting resource MomsTeam.com. These are her tips on children and sports…

Tips for parents on how they can help their child perform at their best:

Home Team Advantage Book CoverEnsure your athlete gets enough sleep.  A tired athlete, especially one still playing fall sports, isn’t going to be able to perform at their best during tryouts.  You can help by setting a consistent "lights-out" time for turning off the computer, cell phone, MP3, and TV, so your athlete gets the rest needed for peak performance.

Fuel Sports Nutrition gaps:  Athletes typically have little time in the school day to eat before tryouts, so they start on an empty stomach or choose ineffective sources of fuel based on what’s readily available. Athletes need to be properly fueled before, during and after tryouts, especially multi-day tryouts, to get the most out of their bodies and perform at their best.  Make sure your athlete has the right fuel when it’s needed by packing scientifically developed sports nutrition products like Gatorade’s G Series to provide the fuel, fluids and nutrients athletes before and during sports, and the fluid and protein they need to recover after a grueling day of tryouts.

Be pro-active about hydration: Even mild dehydration can keep an athlete from performing at his/her best during tryouts. Staying hydrated during the school day is particularly challenging because athletes often can’t or don’t remember to hydrate properly or regularly. Athletes need to be hydrated for sports, no matter the season or the weather.  Water does not hydrate as effectively as a sport drink like Gatorade that is scientifically formulated with fluid, electrolytes and carbohydrates to rapidly replace what athletes lose in sweat and provide energy to keep them at the top of their game. Remember that thirst is not a good indicator of hydration, so encourage athletes to drink on a schedule.

Blow the Whistle at Bedtime. Studies show that students need nine hours of sleep but only get about seven. Set a consistent “lights out” time for turning off the computer, cell phone and television so young athletes get the rest they need. Consider docking texting and gaming devices away from their bedroom to reduce late-night distractions.

Fuel the Burn. Active young athletes need at least 3,000 calories per day for peak performance, so they need to eat very frequently. Help them maintain energy throughout the day by sending them off with healthy, high-carb, low-fat snacks such as energy bars, trail mix or dried fruit to munch at their desks (if it’s ok with the teacher). Students with early morning workouts should eat two breakfasts – one before the workout and one before school. So, send athletes to practice with a snack to help them recover and refuel.

Be Proactive About Hydration. Staying hydrated during the school day is challenging. In fact, studies show that many student athletes start their sports already dehydrated, making it difficult for them to catch up during activity. For safety and performance reasons athletes need to be hydrated no matter what the season, and water isn’t enough because it doesn’t hydrate as effectively as a sports drink like Gatorade that is scientifically formulated with fluid, electrolytes and carbohydrates to rapidly replace what athletes lose through sweat and provide energy to keep them at the top of their game.

Use Sports Sense to Power Schoolwork. Great athletes are disciplined, focused and dedicated. Help young athletes channel these qualities to manage their schoolwork as well. Encourage them to use free time at school to review notes or knock off smaller assignments. Also, coach them to tackle the tough stuff first. Young athletes will be tired after sports, so they should finish priority and difficult homework earlier in the day.

Don’t Forget the Fun. Youth sports may be increasingly competitive, but the top reason kids play sports is to enjoy the game. Look out for warning signs that students are struggling to enjoy the experience, and work with them to find a solution. Warning signs include: complaints of sickness at practice or game time; slow return to practice after injury; nervousness, anxiety or anger before, during or after the game; practices well but plays poorly.
