Tipevo Partners with PCA To Improve the Youth Sports Experience

01.17.2019


Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA) — a national non-profit developing BETTER ATHLETES, BETTER PEOPLE through youth and high school sports — has partnered with Tipevo, America’s Ultimate Youth Sports Directory® designed to help parents, players and coaches search, learn and connect with programs across the country. Tipevo is an intuitive solution for discovering the right youth sports club, as well as understanding what that club is about via simple and comprehensive profiles that display the most important information. Tipevo strives to standardize information across youth sports programs and offer transparency by allowing users the opportunity to securely share their experience at a club with the rest of the community through verified ratings and reviews.

Tipevo will work with PCA to encourage youth sports organizations and programs to adopt the PCA philosophy while allowing current PCA partners to showcase their clubs and teams on the Tipevo platform.  PCA will be highlighted as a market standard of positive youth sports environments through Tipevo’s curated program profiles.

"After working very closely with the youth sports community for two years, we've identified the information that parents are looking for during their search process, as well as the best structure for programs to convey this to potential program participants. With our experience, we were able to create technology that will streamline the youth sports process for both parents and programs. We're super excited about extending our platform to the PCA community and beyond," said Dan Conte, Founder & CEO of Tipevo.


"We're excited to partner with Tipevo and support continued efforts to provide a space for leagues and families to share their youth sports experiences," said Jason Sacks, PCA's VP of Business Development and Philanthropy.  “We look forward to sharing this platform to our current partners and collaborating with Tipevo on a shared mission of developing the best possible youth sports experience for kids.”


Tipevo will be the presenting sponsor of the redesigned PCA podcast series. PCA and Tipevo will also collaborate on social media content and more, as part of this partnership.
