FundPlay Foundation Software Grant

FundPlay Foundation Software Grant is sponsored by FundPlay Foundation (via LeagueApps). Provides youth sports nonprofit organizations with free LeagueApps software, capacity building, coach training, and impact‑evaluation resources.

Making Sports More Accessible for All We believe that everyone should be able to play, but children from underserved communities often miss out on this opportunity. That’s why we created FundPlay Foundation, a nonprofit organization providing free software to more than 400 community sports organizations, enabling more than 550,000 unique sports opportunities for kids.

LeagueApps contributes 1% of its revenue to FundPlay Foundation and has committed to providing software licenses, and employee and administrative support. Learn About FundPlay Foundation Teamwork Makes The Dream Work The entire LeagueApps community contributes to our collective impact.

Because LeagueApps commits 1% of its revenue towards youth sports accessibility, every LeagueApps customer helps to ensure more kids have access to the benefits of youth sports simply by using our software. We also work with our customers to help them have a bigger impact in their local communities.

In addition, the LeagueApps team supports community sports organizations and FundPlay Foundation and its grantees through its company volunteering program, its annual FundPlay Day of Service, and by mentoring youth that are pursuing education or careers in tech.

How We’re Solving the Accessibility Problem LeagueApps is a founding member of the PLAY Sports Coalition, having helped get the organization off the ground in April 2020 as the COVID-19 pandemic put sports on pause.

We have led the fight for economic support for youth sports organizations and families, helping to unlock more than $20M in grant funding to youth sports nonprofits in underserved communities, and introducing legislation to support these organizations through game-changing federal funds.

As members of the Aspen Institute’s Project Play 2024 group, and having been previously recognized as a Project Play Champion, we are working with national brands, governing bodies, and pro leagues and teams to positively influence the youth sports landscape and ensure a better youth sports experience for all kids. In 2019 we organized the first NextUp Youth Sports Management Conference.

By facilitating collaboration between club and travel organizations, pro leagues and teams, and sports-based youth development organizations, we are engaging the entire youth sports community to address issues of accessibility and participation.

“Thank you for being a part of our team in so many different ways, not just providing an opportunity to register kids to be a part of sports, but also fighting the issues we’re dealing with in our community. LeagueApps has allowed us to stay in contact with those families and allow them to feel like they’re a part of something. ” “Thank you for supporting South Bronx United.
