TORRANCE, Calif. /California Newswire/ — The American Youth Soccer Organization (AYSO) is pleased to announce that it has renewed its official partnership with Sports Connect, powered by Stack Sports, as the Exclusive Registration and Member Management Platform for an additional four years. This partnership is aimed to create a more simplified registration and back-office experience, allowing AYSO volunteers and staff to focus on growing the game of soccer in their local community.
Sports Connect provides innovative solutions developed exclusively for AYSO programs, including custom website designs, in-site access to AYSO player cards, real-time custom reporting, integrated background checks, and a live sync and instant access to the AYSO National Data Center. Additionally, Sports Connect has equipped the AYSO Office with added insights into their membership at the regional level, setting the foundation that allows AYSO to study and learn from their regions and make data-driven decisions that can transform the future of soccer.
“AYSO’s vision and mission is not only provide the opportunity all to play but to enrich the lives of children and families through the beautiful game and Sports Connect is building innovative solutions that help make running and growing our programs possible,” said Matt Winegar, AYSO Transitional National Executive Director. “We look forward to working with a partner like Sports Connect that supports our mission.”
Sports Connect has served as a trusted partner of AYSO since 2016, providing registration solutions to the sections, areas, and regions as well as supporting the participating players, families, and volunteers. As part of the partnership renewal, Sports Connect now provides additional member management solutions for the governing body, including a more seamless learning management and player safety experience.
