We organize and connect the fragmented market place of sports players/coaches and fans into a search-able database this is sports-focused and user-friendly. In essence, we connect the “Real world” through the “Virtual world.” We make the communication and tedious tasks of planning and organizing activities simplistic, less time consuming, more efficient and more enjoyable. At its most simplistic form is a sport enthusiast social networking site. The site has similar functionality to other social networking sites but additional functions not offered. We connect our tools to highly-trafficked social media such as Facebook, MySpace, Bebo, Hi5, and Orkut. Members can play multiple roles across multiple sports and activities simultaneously, and in one environment. We organize this fragmented market placed into searchable database that is sports-focused and user-friendly. The site has been in development for a couple of years and we figure we need a few months worth of development to complete the functionality, make it user friendly & launch it. We are seeking funding to complete it. We are currently working with top amateur sports organizations to get their endorsement and thus acceptability. We can provide a detailed presentation with more data as well as a summary business plan.

Providing efficient use of activities planning & organizational time. Decreasing users overall costs of services. Providing an informative, interactive, safe and enjoyable environment.
