ProSmart Signs Partnership Agreements with the English and Scottish Ice Hockey Associations
Kelowna, BC (FSCwire) - ProSmart Enterprises Inc. (TSXV: PROS) (“ProSmart” or the “Company”) announces that the two governing bodies of English and Scottish Hockey, the English Ice Hockey Association (“EIHA”) and the Scottish Ice Hockey Association (“SIHA”), have now embraced ProSmart as their exclusive national development model and team management tools for coaches, managers and teams across England, Wales and Scotland.
This marks the first time these two national governing bodies will have a comprehensive developmental and administrative resource to support their overall athletic communities. This is also the first time a governing body in Europe has taken the step to fully adopt ProSmart as their national platform of choice. The platform is being rolled out this season with the localized ProSmart service updated to include EIHA and SIHA branding.
These two associations govern approximately 300 teams, including approximately 30 women’s teams. Importantly, the two associations and the 830 registered teams the platform already serves across Europe are part of a much larger sports community being addressed by ProSmart. ProSmart is not just looking to engage with the individual players, coaches and managers, but also parents, grandparents and fans. ProSmart is also looking beyond the hockey community these individuals represent and will look to drive engagement and growth into other sports and activities those hockey participants and their friends are involved with, especially opportunities around the ProSmart Football (Soccer) platform. Thus, the overall community and reach potential for ProSmart is significantly larger than it appears on the surface.
In light of this large opportunity, ProSmart is already in active discussions with brands and sponsors that have strong interest in running various promotional programs through the EIHA and SIHA.
"The EIHA is excited to partner with ProSmart Hockey and to embrace its curriculum as the national development model for grassroots hockey across England and Wales. In doing so, it empowers us as a national governing body to provide a comprehensive developmental program for all registered coaches, managers and teams, while also being able to effectively measure the overall growth of the game across England and Wales." says Paul Hayes, EIHA Director of Coaching.
“The partnership with these two national governing bodies is indicative of our long-term, international vision and a clear indication of our unique value proposition. ProSmart will use this strong precedent as a springboard to partner with further European national governing bodies, cross-promote our other sports verticals across these communities, and then deploy promotional programs across them with various brands and sponsors to ensure financial sustainability.” says Alan Schuler, ProSmart Co-Founder & CEO.
