Mizuno USA brings America's favorite pastimes -- baseball and softball -- to communities across the country through the "Dare To Dream" Tour. This mobile baseball/softball workshop visits youth fields, major league stadiums, community baseball parks and sporting goods retailers. Baseball and softball fans of all ages will have the opportunity to participate in a variety of tour exhibits and, at selected locations, experience the art of glove craftsmanship as well as meet their favorite Major League Baseball stars.

Mizuno's "Dare to Dream" Tour van is a mobile exhibit. Some of the same equipment that's used by Major League All-Stars such as Miguel Tejada and Chipper Jones, and Team USA Olympic softball stars Jennie Finch and Natasha Watley, will be available to see, touch and try out first hand!

Each "Dare To Dream" Tour van travels the country year-round, giving thousands of players the opportunity to get an up close and personal look at the latest innovations in baseball and softball equipment and to experience all the "Dare To Dream" Tour has to offer.

Mizuno and McFarlane Toys have partnered up to give fans the opportunity to win McFarlane Toys Sports Picks baseball figures at all of the "Dare To Dream" Tour stops. The Sports Picks figures feature athletes who use Mizuno gear.
