SportsPower

Global Reach Sports empowers National Governing Bodies with technology to reach, aggregate, engage and grow their grassroots sports communities. The tool developed to accomplish this is SportsPower.

SportsPower is an array of tools that are designed to assist an NGB by increasing member, coach, club and event organizer loyalty and affinity, increasing staff efficiency and increasing the NGB’s assets for corporate sponsorship.

The SportsPower platform provides the foundation for a digital marketing strategy focused around each individual member’s or team’s performance statistics and standings. The end result is a system that empowers the NGB’s community to generate performance content that is of primary interest to members, coaches and families. People like to view content about themselves, their friends, their competitors and their heroes.

Fueled by the Human Ego, SportsPower provides the engine to grow and enhance a sport organization’s existing online community by increasing benefits to members, sponsors, coaches, clubs and event organizers. SportsPower is the technology that drives this digital marketing strategy.
