BOULDER, Colo., Oct. 15, 2020 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Today at The Aspen Institute Project Play Summit 2020, TeamSnap<\/a> CEO and Founder Dave DuPont announced that TeamSnap will commit $1 million over the next three years to improve access to sport for underserved youth athletes.<\/p>\n

\"TeamSnap\"<\/em><\/p>\n

As part of the commitment, TeamSnap will be supporting a series of new programs to drive access to sport. This includes being a partner on The Aspen Institute\u2019s\u00a0Project Play 2024<\/a> initiative which mobilizes industry leaders to take actions around making sports accessible to all children, regardless of race, gender, zip code or ability. As well as a long-standing partnership with Positive Coaching Alliance, an organization that recently announced their Million Coaches Challenge, a commitment to train over 400,000 coaches, with a focus on underserved communities.<\/p>\n

\u201cAccess to quality sports is a very personal initiative for me. Playing team sports had an incredibly positive impact on all aspects of my life; they taught me key life skills and laid the foundation for a healthy lifestyle,\u201d said DuPont. \u201cI believe all children should have the same access to sport that I had growing up. I am immensely proud that TeamSnap is doing everything it can to support access to sport and our $1 Million commitment will go a long way towards helping ensure more young athletes get into the game.\u201d<\/p>\n

Over the past six months, TeamSnap has been a key resource in helping sports organizations and teams navigate the pandemic and make a safe return to play. Its Return to Sports resource hub has been heavily accessed and its new Health Check COVID-19 screening tool<\/a>, which it is providing free to all of TeamSnap\u2019s 24 million users, has already been used more than 4 million times.<\/p>\n
