Eight-time women's tackle football champion and Blitz Champz inventor Adrienne Smith will greet Packers fans and autograph Blitz Champz card games at the Packers Pro Shop Saturday, March 16, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., or while supplies last.
Smith's visit will also honor Women's History Month, as she will speak to attendees about her career as a women's tackle football champion and a five-time member of the U.S. women's national flag football team. Guests will learn how Smith parlayed her athletic career into creating Blitz Champz and securing a licensing deal with the NFL.
"I am so excited to participate in a meet-and-greet with Packers fans for Women's History Month," said Smith. "Blitz Champz is the culmination of my love for football and education, and I can't wait for Packers fans to experience all the game has to offer."
Blitz Champz is an award-winning football card game playable by two to six players for ages seven and up. Smith created Blitz Champz in 2015 as a means of spreading the fun and competition of football to kids and families worldwide. In addition to being a super fun card game, Blitz Champz has also been adopted by elementary and middle schools throughout the U.S. as a math learning tool for its ability to reinforce math and strategic thinking skills for students.
Each Packers Blitz Champz card game is comprised of 100 vibrantly illustrated playing cards that feature both female and male athletes playing flag and tackle football. Packers Blitz Champz card games are available at the Packers Pro Shop, both in-store and online for $24.99.
In addition to the card game, a digital single-player version of Blitz Champz is now available for free download at the Apple, Google and Amazon app stores.
