As part ongoing efforts to promote safety in local youth sports, Capital Health has entered into a five-year sponsorship agreement with Hamilton Township Recreational Baseball Association Little League (HTRBA) based in Mercerville, New Jersey. The partnership launched with the presentation of a $6,000 check at the league’s home at Van Horn Park. These funds will support HTRBA’s purchase of automatic external defibrillators (AEDs) for the league to help save the lives of players, coaches, or spectators who may experience sudden cardiac arrest.
“Many children are first introduced to the ideas of health and fitness through youth sports, and this partnership will build on the foundation established by HTRBA,” said Dr. Neil Saxena, a board certified and fellowship trained cardiologist from Capital Health Cardiology Specialists – Hamilton. “Supporting HTRBA’s purchase of AEDs is an exciting first step in increasing safety in local youth sports and the larger community and encouraging better health habits for a lifetime.”
