www.sportstropolis.com launches beta version of unique online community for aspiring athletes, sports enthusiasts

Orlando, Fla. --- Sportstropolis.com, a startup company in East Orlando has launched a Beta version of its unique online community for aspiring athletes, coaches, college and pro recruiters and sports enthusiasts. Adam Clarke, chief executive officer of Sportstropolis.com, said the new online community will combine many of the functions of Facebook, LinkedIn, and other online directory services with a feature-rich environment designed to enable users to post a record of their athletic achievements from youth to adult level sports. At this time, the site is set up to target individual amateur and recreational athletes of all ages and allows them to track and record their games and events. Stat tracking is currently available only in baseball and softball. The functionality is also great for parents who can begin to essentially create a scrapbook of the games their children play. Future features will allow those users to add training techniques, practice cycles, game schedules, tournament competitions and everything in between. Team, league, and tournament functionality from all sports will also be added soon to increase the overall scope and purpose of the site. Clarke said he expects to incorporate user feedback in designing and adding new features to the Beta version of the site. “The goal of Sportstropolis.com is to allow users to freely share their stats, images, and game summaries with friends, teammates, coaches, and recruiters,” Clarke said. “Sportstropolis.com will make it easier for individual users and parents to gather and track information about their performance over time,” Clarke added. Sportstropolis.com is a member of the University of Central Florida Business Incubation Program in the Central Florida Research Park in East Orange County.
