Live Stats Tracking and Scorekeeping

By Candice Coots

Mobile, mobile, mobile, that’s our theme this week. Just yesterday we announced the upcoming release of the Weplay iPhone application and today we have even bigger news to share. It entails free scorekeeping and live updates for your team, features you have been vocal in requesting.

That’s why we are thrilled to introduce our partnership with Fungo Media, Inc. Their GameChanger iPhone app and web tools are now available to Weplay users. GameChanger is an exciting mobile application that literally empowers coaches, parents, athletes and more to track the action on the field. GameChanger is directly integrated with Weplay, allowing team scorekeepers to record live stats that immediately post to your Weplay group. This means fans and family can access live scoring and historical game results on your softball or baseball team page while the game is being played.

“It’s hard to imagine going back to ‘doing the book’ after using GameChanger's scorekeeping application to keep track of all our team data,” said Damien Gray, manager of the Cedar Grove (NJ) Gorillas and an early adopter of GameChanger. “It’s taken hours off the scorekeeping and stat management process, kept parents and fans riveted with the game updates and made the players more excited about the game than ever.”

To start, GameChanger stat tracking will be available for baseball and softball teams, as we enter the spring sports season. This innovative game casting and stats tracking application is certain to be a home run, and our mission is to offer the service to every sport in the succeeding stage. We want all sports teams to enjoy the utility and excitement that Coach Gray’s baseball team has from using GameChanger.

We believe Gamechanger coupled with the new Weplay iPhone application, provides a rewarding mobile experience that we hope makes your sports season even more valuable. The simplicity of the Weplay app allows you to update your status, view your network activity and the ability to upload and view media. GameChanger builds on this flow by offering direct and instant scorekeeping and stats updates on your team page and calendar. These mobile features will truly liberate your on the go, mobile adventure.

As we work to send GameChanger live on Weplay, we’ll be providing tutorials, outlines and examples to help get the ball rolling. The GameChanger team is actually integrating the application on Weplay as I write this. Exciting, I know!

Join us on the Weplay Preview group and share your initial thoughts on our mobile explosion. Your feedback is key to current and future feature plans.

    This is absolutely awesome! Is this only for iPhones? Will Blackberry have an app like this?

    For spring it will be iPhone only, but we're looking to expand it. Anyone in the stands can do it, so just find an iPhone and your set!

    Any luck on getting player availability to the site? It would be great if the players could go in and click their availability for games and practices.
