Diving Australia partners with revolutioniseSPORT
Diving Australia have announced that they have struck a partnership with online sports management provider, revolutioniseSPORT.
The revolutioniseSPORT platform will provide Diving Australia with a ‘whole of sport’ solution, allowing full integration between the national body, peak state bodies, and participating diving clubs around Australia.
Diving Australia Chief Executive David Bell explains that diving is one of Australia's most successful Olympic sports and this new partnership will allow Diving Australia to better manage and expand their grassroots participation base.
Welcoming the link with revolutioniseSPORT, Bell stated “this partnership will really help us in our efforts to attract more participants at the grassroots level, as well as assist those volunteers who spend many hours of their week organising competitions and registrations.
"Our decision is based on the fact that the platform is flexible and scalable, and will be able to grow with Diving as we move forward into the future. Being able to accurately assess our membership base, retention rates, and the demographic spread of members will help us align our strategic vision with real-world data about diving across Australia."
The key features of the platform include the ability to process online registrations and payments, as well as organise championships ranging from the amateur to the elite.
revolutioniseSPORT Director Alex Mednis is excited to be working closely with one of Australia's most prestigious sports, adding "we believe that the future of sports management starts from the grassroots up, empowering clubs to manage their own affairs, whilst being tightly integrated with a national system.
"For a sport to effectively manage and grow their participation, you need a streamlined system that works for everyone - one that both the clubs and peak bodies are happy with - that can be up and running in days, not weeks or months. revolutioniseSPORT is uniquely positioned to offer this service to sports across Australia."
Online registrations for diving will commence in July 2014, right across Australia.
revolutioniseSPORT is the emerging market leader in online club management in Australia. The platform supports both grassroots clubs and peak sporting bodies, and has formed partnerships with three Australian National Sporting Organisations within six months of releasing their whole-of-sport solution.
