New Wrestling Tournament Software and Mobile App Launched

Aug. 29, 2012 - PRLog -- “Wouldn’t it be cool if parents and coaches could pull out their smartphone and track when their kids are up next to wrestle?”
Now, there is an app for that...

TourneyGuru wrestling tournament software has emerged from thoughts about what a wrestling tournament experience could be like if you use the latest advances in cloud computing and the mobile Internet. The goal in developing TourneyGuru was to make things easier for the Tournament Director, but also improve the tournament experience for parents, coaches, and wrestlers. A tournament’s success can largely be measured by the feedback of those in attendance, and if they’re excited to come back next year.

Parents, coaches and wrestlers want the tournament to run smoothly and efficiently. And they want the latest information and updates on tournament brackets and results (http://www.tourneyguru.com/tournaments_listing.php). Throughout a tournament they are asking questions like: How soon will my kid wrestle again? What match number are they? Who is wrestling next?. This is where there was a real opportunity.

Everyone has a cell phone these days—and in the US, more than half of these phones are smartphones (i.e. iPhone, Android, etc.). With that in mind, it became TourneyGuru’s mission to create software that not only made the Tournament Director’s job easy, but that also gave attendees what they want via SMS text alerts and mobile apps for tournaments (http://www.tourneyguru.com/mobile_register.php).

TourneyGuru founder, Jeff Ireland says, "We pilot tested our software with a small number of tournaments to work out any kinks and get feedback. After only a few tournaments, we knew we had something special. The feedback we got was exciting and gratifying. A new wrestling mom with three young boys said, ’Your mobile app is a mom’s best friend!’ A head official said in an email, ’I must say that the tournament ran efficiently and smooth. It was amazing what I saw during my off mat time to view the computer that my table was using"

Although the wrestling tournament software (http://www.tourneyguru.com) is already leading edge, Ireland says it is far from finished. "We are continually adding new features to make it even better. And because TourneyGuru is web based, you immediately get access to the very latest updates the moment we release them without the hassle of additional downloads and installations"
