Online community for sporting Brits unveiled
2 August 2004
A new website has been launched for the UK's sporting community.
Sport One aims to encourage the development of UK sport by bringing together clubs, coaches and participants into a single online community. The website, operated by Sport One Ltd and established by ex-international trampolinists Brian Hudson and Luke Porter, will focus on all sports and all levels of participation.
Launched this week , the website aims to become the most comprehensive multi-sport community website in the UK, delivering sports news, sporting events and information across 100 specific sports and focus group areas.
In addition to theses services, any UK sports club or team can build a free club website and all members receive a free Sport One email account. Clubs can enter their details onto the Sport One directory, add their own club events to the Sport One calendar and submit club news and results to the Sport One articles and information resource.
The new sports site will also sell a range of sporting goods, equipment and services and has pledged to plough half of all trading profits back into the creation and development of UK sporting facilities and coaching.
Mr Hudson said: "I have always been frustrated by the slow development of British Sport, particularly those sports that are not high profile or professional sports. Sport One aims to get behind those people serving sport at grass roots and club level, empowering them with the tools and resources necessary to drive British sporting success in the future."
