SportMe.org - Connect With Teammates, Fans, and Coaches

Sportme is a UK-based community for athletes and sports fans who are looking to connect with others who share a love for a particular sport or team. The site is, in all respects, extremely similar to your average social network in that it is based around the creation and viewing of personal profiles, though logically with a sports theme. To use (and even get detailed information about) sportme, you’ll need to sign up. Once you’ve done this, you begin by creating your profile and uploading a photo. The profiles are heavily sports-related and detailed; you can even specify your teams, positions, duties, accomplishments, greatest moments, etc. From there, you can browse for your teams and clubs and join them, or create new ones if they don’t yet exist. Joining such groups lets you communicate with other team members, coaches, trainers, and fans; you can check out scheduling info, upload photos and videos, create posts, and more. You’ll probably find some of your team members here, whom you can friend and/or message to expand your network. Lastly, sportMe has an independent video and photo gallery where you can search for or browse multimedia content by tag, keyword, or category.

 
  In their own words  

“sportme is an innovative and completely free social network that assists grass root and semi-professional sports clubs, teams, individual athletes and fans to interact online and share their sporting experiences with one another. From football to archery, netball to bowls, sportme offers everyone involved in sports the chance to share their exploits with others in the sporting community.

Clubs, teams and individuals can create custom profiles and use the development functions to keep up to date with their sports schedules; coordinate practices, matches and tournaments and find local teams with whom they can compete.

Members can also communicate with their sports peers, develop friendships with other sporty people and promote themselves and their groups via the internet using sportme message boards, sports forums, blogs, calendar and photo/video sharing functions”

  Why it might be a killer  

Sportme is a thorough website in all senses of the word. Anything you’d want in a sports website can be found here; easy mechanisms for team communication, extremely detailed personal profiles, photo and video uploads, team and club pages, and more. Every section has been executed with great attention to detail and incorporates many different search, input, and communication elements.

  Some questions  

What about a section for training and workouts? This seems to be the only element missing from the site.
