Contest Coming to Win a David Beckham Academy MatchMaster Hand Held Soccer Game

Susan Gunelius — Sat, 21 Jun 2008 13:49:50 +0000

I’m very excited to announce a contest that is coming to PlayLibrary next week where you could win one of two MatchMaster Hand Held games. This new MatchMaster Head-to-Head Interactive Soccer Game is associated with The David Beckham Academy. The game tests players’ abilities to develop their performance by managing their daily schedule. It also teaches children how training, eating right and rest leads to better performance and health. Each player can also test their skills by playing the seven interactive training games as well as challenging other MatchMaster players in one of four Infra Red games.

The David Beckham Academy provides programs for young athletes ages 4-15 that teach the importance of hard work, healthy living, teamwork and the importance of having fun in sports. As you’d expect for a product with The David Beckham Academy name on it, MatchMaster is designed with parents and education in mind. Players have to select their “Daily Routine Planner” during certain parts of the game where they have to select meals, training and sleep to develop a stronger player.

MatchMaster is available exclusively at Wal-Mart (it just debuted on June 1, 2008), and it is intended for children ages 8 and up. The retail price is $19.96. The price is definitely worth it based on the amount of play a child can get from this toy. I particlulary like the option to challenge other MatchMaster players. Each day, your child will have to set his or her Daily Routine Planner determining how and when to eat, train and sleep, which will add to their lifelines. Players can even get injured then need to spend time nursing their video player back to health. I think the MatchMaster would be a great video game for the car, particularly if two players were riding and could challenge each other!

As part of the MatchMaster launch, there is also a MatchMaster Sweepstakes running through September 1, 2008 where you could win some really great prizes. Watch my post tomorrow for all the details about the sweepstakes.

And about that contest…. I have two MatchMasters that will be raffled off here on PlayLibrary over the next week or so. Come back and visit PlayLibrary to enter, or subscribe to the PlayLibrary feed so you don’t miss anything!

Making It Real by David Beckham
Whoopi’s Big Book of Manners by Whoopi Goldberg (although from what I’ve seen of her act, she isn’t exactly the most well-mannered person out there….)
Is There Really a Human Race? by Jamie Lee Curtis
Emeril’s There’s a Chef in My World!: Recipes That Take You Places by Emeril Lagasse
Lady in the Water: A Bedtime Story by M. Night Shyamalan
