- Baron® Championship Rings to Remain Exclusive Ring Provider for Five Additional Years -
SPRINGFIELD, MASS. – The Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame has announced the extension of its partnership with Baron® Championship Rings as the exclusive ring provider for the Basketball Hall of Fame for an additional five years. Baron® will continue to craft commemorative rings for the newest Hall of Fame Class members through 2029.
As part of the extended partnership, Baron® has also collaborated with the Jerry Colangelo Golf Classic in Phoenix, where they will provide custom-designed rings to the tournament’s winning teams each year throughout the agreement.
“We are pleased to announce the extension of our partnership with Baron Championship Rings,” said John L. Doleva, President and CEO of the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame. “Each Class through 2029 will continue to receive beautiful commemorative rings created by the Baron team, and we are proud to be supporting their community initiatives as well.”
A key element of the renewed partnership is the Hall of Fame’s support of Baron’s “Leave No One Behind Program.” This initiative was developed to help players, coaches, or entire organizations who lack the financial resources to fully participate in or celebrate their sport. The program seeks to alleviate burdens such as league fees, uniforms, or even championship rings, ensuring no one is sidelined due to financial constraints. With the support of partners like the Hall of Fame, Baron® aims to expand the program’s reach and impact.
“Baron® is honored to support the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, and we couldn’t be more excited to continue working with them to modernize their recognition and commemorative collections,” said Drina Baron-Zinyk, President of Baron® Championship Rings. “The Hall of Fame is a cornerstone of our portfolio, and we are committed to playing a pivotal role in their efforts. As a North American company with innovative design and manufacturing capabilities, we are proud to lead the way in revolutionizing the Championship Ring market.”
The renewed partnership underscores a shared commitment to excellence, innovation, and community impact, ensuring that each Hall of Fame Class continues to be celebrated with the distinction they deserve.
