Ottawa, ON - June 20, 2008 - Combat Sports (www.combatbaseball.com) is pleased to announce the purchase of Ballistik Hockey, an Ottawa, ON based hockey manufacturer, specializing in composite hockey sticks since 1993. This acquisition will position Combat as a leader in the composite sporting goods market and will provide their customers with a wider range of products when choosing sports equipment.
