INDIANAPOLIS, IN (August 19, 2014) — C2CSchools.com, a web-based high school sports information delivery system, has entered into a three-year agreement with the National Federation of State High School Associations as an NFHS Corporate Partner. Its primary support will be for the NFHS Coach Education Program.

           C2CSchools.com offers unique web-based software designed specifically for state athletic and activities associations to manage, regulate and coordinate all phases of their business online, including but not limited to bylaws, finances, student academic eligibility, injury data, participation forms, score reporting, scheduling, testing and polling.
            The software package allows member schools within an association to create public websites and integrate with all social media, providing each school unlimited space to display scores, highlights, schedules and rosters. Furthermore, this software communication tool provides updated information for all school teams, clubs or organizations to parents, students and the public.

“We are glad to have C2CSchools on board as an NFHS corporate partner,” said Bob Gardner, NFHS executive director. “The service it offers has the ability to not only reach our member associations and their member schools, but also the coaches, players and fans. We look forward to working with C2CSchools.com over the next three years.”
C2CSchools.com allows players’ and teams’ statistics to be uploaded to the website, providing a single gateway for interested parties to review player and team information, game stories, scores, statistics, rosters and news.  Another feature will provide online forms that eliminate some paper correspondence.
“For C2C to become a partner with the NFHS is kind of a dream come true,” said Robert Gomes,C2CSchools.com chief executive officer. “With all the things C2C does with state associations and schools, and all the things the NFHS does with the associations for the schools, I think this partnership is a natural fit.”
