Nerf Sports is a series of Nerf products focused on sport play.
Details
While not as popular as Nerf blasters, Nerf Sports consists of balls and equipment for people to play sports with. Common products released under the Nerf Sports series are footballs and basketball hoops. Many Nerf Sports objects are designed to cope with any amount of rainfall there may be, making them popular among people who play street sports.
There exists a sub-series of Nerf Sports called Firevision Sports which focuses on products that can be used both in daytime and nighttime.
History
The series dates back to the early years of the Nerf brand itself. The majority of the early Nerf toys were Nerf Sports products (or retroactively added into the Nerf Sports line), among them being the Football (1972) and the Nerfoop (1972).
The line spawned several sub-series, among them being Nick & Nerf (1995 to 1996), Head 2 Head (1996 to 1997), and most recently, Firevision Sports (2012 present). The line went on a brief hiatus in 2004, when all Nerf Sports products were rebranded under the Pro Shop or Street Zone lines depending on the product. Later Nerf Sports products were not under these lines.
