Integration With Leading Sports Management Platform to Empower Future Growth for Non-Profit While Enhancing User Experience for Coaches, Athletes and Volunteers
BOULDER, Colo., Sept. 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — TeamSnap, the leading provider of sports management software and online community for everything youth sports, today announced an integration with Special Olympics Colorado (SOCO), Colorado’s premier sports organization for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD).
The three-year partnership will bring cutting-edge sports management technology solutions to one of the most well-known brands and non-profits that utilizes sports to make a difference in the lives of children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The phased rollout of TeamSnap’s Clubs & Leagues platform kicked off in July, with a goal of bringing on all SOCO sports starting in the fall of 2022.
“Special Olympics Colorado is part of the Special Olympics family, which is one of the world’s leading advocates for ending discrimination against and fostering belonging for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, while also empowering them to take control of their own health through the power of sport,” said Peter Frintzilas, CEO of TeamSnap. “TeamSnap stands united with SOCO on these missions, and we look forward to seeing the results of our integration, through one SOCO athlete’s smile at a time.”
Key Benefits of Partnership

“Special Olympics Colorado is honored and grateful to join forces with TeamSnap, enabling us to now offer a comprehensive yet easy-to-use registration and team management tool for all of our athletes, coaches, and volunteers,” said Megan Scremin, SOCO President & CEO. “The TeamSnap platform will help us meet the needs of our community while bringing our programs and initiatives to more individuals across Colorado.”
