BOULDER, Colo. — Team- Snap, the world’s No. 1 web and mobile team and activity management service, announced on Thursday a partnership with Ripken Baseball, the nation’s largest youth-focused baseball and sports organization, to share resources and content for advocating youth sports.
TeamSnap will be Ripken Baseball’s official team management sponsor and partner. Through the agreement, TeamSnap will provide tips to Ripken readers and the companies will partake in crossplatform sharing of resources and materials for players, parents and coaches. Resources include general baseball information, management tactics, baseball drills and ways to encourage the enjoyment of the sport for young players.
“TeamSnap simplifies team management so coaches don’t have to worry about logistics. Instead, they can focus on teaching the same of baseball, and that’s what the Ripken Way is all about,” said Adam McGillen, communications manager of Ripken Baseball, in an article on the Ripken Baseball website.
TeamSnap’s five-star iOS and Android apps are used by 60 percent of its users, including baseball parents, athletes, coaches and players, for retrieving player information, viewing player attendance and availability, editing team calendars, accessing game locations on a map, posting game results, and more.
