Newsletter  Archives
Greetings!
Welcome to our monthly newsletter series on optimizing your Wiffle Ball/Backyard Ball experience.  We provide monthly tips and information on the sport of Wiffle Ball, everything from pitching, hitting, building fields and more. This month we have a jam packed issue filled with Wiffle Ball Fun Facts, updates to our website, new products, suggestions on what to give out for Halloween treats and another great Customer Corner wiffle ball field submission.
 
We also want to hear from you.  Do you have a story about WIFFLE, tips on playing, pictures of your field, or information about an upcoming tournament or event?  Let us know and we'll share it.
Wiffle Ball Fun Facts 
 
The first prototypes of the Wifle Ball were made with a razor blade and some tape on a kitchen table.
 
The first Wiffle Balls were sold in 1953 for the price of 49 cents.
 
The first major retailer to sell Wiffle Balls was Woolworth's.
 
The first star to appear on the Wiffle Ball Box in the early 1950's was Ted Williams.
