2. The Story
A new arrival…
Limited friends…
Bored…
Lonely…
But an avid sports person…
Who just wants to stop hitting tennis balls
against the stupid wall…
He needs to find a partner!
Thus this application…
3. Mission Statement / Value Proposition
“To bring urban communities
together through sports”
-An active society
- Healthy lifestyle
- Exchange of skills/knowledge
- Take kids off the streets
4. How Does It Work?
This application allows individuals to find nearby sports
partners with similar interests
Our algorithm uses the following criteria:
- Sports Interests (e.g. Football, Badminton)
- Geo-Location (e.g. Bishan)
-Date/Time
-Proficiency Level (e.g. Beginner, Expert)
6. Research
• Existing localized websites (non-mobile) e.g.
buddyup.com, sportspartners.com.au, etc.
•Sport-Specific (iPhone) apps like Tennis Buddies
So we KNOW that there is a market!
Multiple Sports
Single Sport
Local Global
7. PlayFinder’s Proposition
We’re crowd-sourcing interests and venues!
• Multiple sports
• Can be scaled up to include other activities/events
• Multi-platform accessibility
• “Think Global, Act Local”
8. Next Steps
What needs to happen to make this project a reality?
- Continued development with focus on user experience
Any partnerships or more data needed?
- Support from community leaders, sports clubs
and associations
- Events to kick-start this platform
