The Beginning
Teamopolis started out in 2002 as a solution to a common problem. How can we
communicate more effectively in a sporting environment?
Back in 2001, Marc Zabudsky, a sports enthusiast and entrepreneur, decided with
a few of his friends to start a Hockey team together. Everybody was excited to play
for the upcoming season. However, the team was doomed to failure ... registration
came and went, and because of a lack of communication, the team never signed up,
and Marc didn't get to play Hockey that season, and he realized that if they were
ever going to play, something had to be done.
A Better Sports Website
Not satisfied with the quality of sports websites available, Marc believed sports
teams and leagues deserve a better website experience. And he set about creating
an better team website.
Since starting Teamopolis, Marc has been hard at work to create websites that:
- Improve communication, and encourages participation in sports
- Are Affordable
- Assist in managing a team or league
- Look great!
Providing Great Web Services to Sports Teams and Leagues
Teamopolis is all about providing excellent services, giving them
the tools they need to make a great website. Who else is better equipped to tell
us what they need than the teams and leagues themselves? We listen carefully to
what our customers tell us, and make every effort to give them what they need.
Whats in a Name?
We are often asked how we came up with our name. The answer is quite simple. In
sports you generally have 3 components:
- Leagues and Organizations
- Team and Clubs
- and, Individuals
We chose the word
Team because it is the common link between all of these 3 components.
Polis is taken from the Greek language meaning "Body of
Citizens", so putting the two words together, we present to you, a social community
of people sharing a common sporting interest online ... Teamopolis!
