SIP FROM THE FIREHOSE
|
|
Started this project in 2004 to help teams and players find each other without having to go to multiple sites.
With the help of a close friend of mine Loren Budd, a conceptual design was born, and shortly there after this site.
I have played and managed a number of teams over the years and I know the difficulties in running a team.
I hope to bring a number of tools to team managers that will allow them to run their teams efficiently, with minimal work.
Currently I am the only person working on the project, but hopefully in the future I can bring on a graphic designer
and a technical writer to enhance the look and add some documentation to the site.

What does the future hold for the Sportlinker site?
- We are currently looking at expanding the site into new cities.
- upgrading the user interface and expanding the sports management tools.
- Personalized team websites that are driven from the sports management tool.
