The largest skill-based daily fantasy sports operator and one of the fastest-growing sports companies in North America, PrizePicks, announced it extended its partnership with the Atlanta Braves, the famous American professional baseball team based in Atlanta, Georgia.

Announced this week, the partnership extension builds on a solid foundation between the duo which dates back to 2020. Per the newly extended agreement, PrizePicks will serve as the club's Official Daily Fantasy Sports Partner throughout the 2024 season.

The recently extended collaboration will bring benefits for both the Atlanta Braves and PrizePicks, solidifying further their successful partnership. For PrizePicks, the company will benefit from prominent signage throughout Truist Park. Moreover, the company will benefit from out-field LED signage.

It's not a surprise that under the deal, PrizePicks will gain access to a wide range of VIP experiences that will ultimately benefit fans of the team and the sport throughout the baseball season. Along with other exciting activations, one of the experiences will be "Pick of the Game," a pregame radio show on the Braves Radio Network that will cover all 162 games within the regular season.

Not unexpectedly, the collaboration will help the Atlanta Braves connect with their fans. At the same time, the popular team will benefit from increased awareness and bring unique opportunities to the fans.

Jim Allen, the Atlanta Braves' Senior Vice President of Corporate and Premium Partnerships, shared his excitement about the extended agreement with PrizePicks in a statement. "PrizePicks has been a valued partner for years. They are the leader in their industry and a prominent local Atlanta business, and we are happy to extend our relationship with them for the 2024 season," he revealed.

Adam Wexler, PrizePicks' CEO and Co-founder was just as excited. He added that the extended agreement with the Atlanta Braves marks an exciting moment for PrizePicks. Moreover, Wexler acknowledged that the collaboration strengthens the successful relationship between the duo. Finally, he said: "As a homegrown company born in Atlanta, it is a priority for us at PrizePicks to engage with local fans by continuing to bring amazing experiences to Braves Country."

In November, PrizePicks boosted its offering with a new free-to-play game. At the time, the company announced that the game be available only for its players in Michigan initially, before expanding to more US states.
