Sports App Raises Funds For Expansion

 

Now, Play Your Sport differently!

Founded in the year 2015 by Supriya Mamgain and Varoon Kapoor, Play Your Sport is an app developed by a Delhi-based startup. It allows the users to discover fitness centers or organize sports events by connecting like-minded people within the area.

Recently, Pay Your Sport raised an undisclosed amount in pre-Series A round of funding, which was led by Ashish Gupta, Founder and Trustee at Ashoka University. The startup will utilize these new funds in the expansion of its team, boosting the technology that it currently uses and extending it services across the country. Around 50 employees need to be hired in the next half year.

In India, people are not exposed to play sports because of inconvenient options, lack of sporty infrastructure and less encouragement of talent. Hence, Play Your Sports brings an organized system to identify your talent and play your favorite sport. At present, Play Your Sport is being used by more than 1000 sports facilities across sports such as cricket, football, swimming, badminton and basketball to run acquisition/retention campaigns, manage membership and streamline operations.
