Cyber-Support & Guidance for Sports Clubs

Sport Buoy finally launching!

Welcome to Sport Buoy!

After 9 months of development, testing, trialling and triumphing, the attention of the Sport Buoy team is turning from the web application towards the top-level site. Over the next month this WordPress blog will be slowly transformed into our main marketing front-end, so please bear with us while we tidy up the loose ends.

With the end of the 2008/2009 season comes a great deal of effort on the part of sports clubs as they deal with the consequences of the last turbulent year and try to organise themselves for the next campaign, and Sport Buoy is no different. We’re trialling how the system copes with year-ends and new seasons at the moment too, as well as continuing other support work with our client clubs, so don’t expect too many development announcements for the next couple of months. After the dust has settled we’ll be looking to add a few more clubs to our system trial – still in an alpha state – with the eventual aim being to have a complete beta available for more general use by December 2009.

If you are interested in the capabilities and benefits which Sport Buoy can bring to your sports club, please contact us via email at info@sportbuoy.com.

Yours sincerely,

The Sport Buoy Development Team
