”The strength of the team is each individual member. The strength of each member is the team.”
- Phil Jackson (11x NBA Championship Coach)
Today, we are making HomeCourt easier to use for coaches and teams.
For many of us, being on a team is why we play sports. The camaraderie, the sisterhood, the brotherhood, the feeling that you can accomplish more together than alone.
Teams are not just for organized sports. Teams are our families, our coworkers, and friends that help us stay motivated and grounded. Today, more than ever, we lean on our teams for support and connection.
We have been incredibly inspired by coaches and teams all over the world that have been using HomeCourt to help their players stay in the game over the recent weeks. Coaches like Penn Charter Girls Basketball Coach Joe Maguire and Cedar Cliff Boys Basketball Coach Savercool to sports organizations like Frankston Blues Basketball in Australia, Wellington Basketball in New Zealand, and the Panthers Basketball Club have shown us how it done.
As part of the product development process, we interviewed over 50 different teams and organizations to see what features would create the most value for what they need, especially during times when teams cannot be together.
We hope the updates today can help us all stay a bit more connected through sports during these crazy times and well into the future as we adapt to a new environment together.
