Please, think for a while. Have you, your children, or your friends ever participated in a sports entity? Have you ever been in contact with a sports federation, governing body, or association?

You surely know that, besides elite organizations, they often struggle to get funds to sustain their operations and infrastructure. They are semi-professional entities that rely on volunteers, grants, and local sponsorships on a regular basis and it is not easy to govern and develop their sports.

Season after season, they organize events, competitions, meets, and activities that affect multiple stakeholders. On a daily and weekly basis, they need to communicate with and organize thousands of people inside and outside their organization. Athletes, clubs, referees, fans, press, sponsors, media, and their own staff need to be synchronized according to the sporting schedule.

Memberships at the beginning of the season in order to know who is participating. Retrieve their identification, medical reviews, coaching and refereeing titles, payments, invoicing, accounting, and parent consents.

Creation of tournaments and leagues, scheduling at beginning of the season, and fixture adjustment every week. Assigning referees to matches and meets, data collection of stats and live scoring, sanctioning, and disciplinary review of the events.

Publication of relevant information, results, and scores in websites and apps, contacting with fans, and privately communicating with all the stakeholders like club managers, athletes, their parents, and referees.

In summary, thousands of interactions and tasks need to be coordinated by every type of federation and association. A work that is done by people that love their sport.

At the same time, they are the most engaged communities in the world. Doing everything above with limited resources is only possible thanks to the passion that we all have for sports. You know what it is to be a kid and play in the streets while dreaming to become a star one day.

They also generate billions of dollars flowing within their own ecosystem from memberships and registrations to paying referees, awards, and salaries.

On top of that, their competitions attract sponsors and fans as a key asset for their organizations.

We created LEGEND to give an answer to this. Our mission is to make sports sustainable. We envision a world where technology enables sports entities and athletes to maximize the return they obtain for living their passion, chasing their dreams, and competing at the maximum level for years.

Our strategy to make sports sustainable consisted of two steps.

First step: Maximizing operational efficiency.

For 6 years we have been creating the technology used for the daily operations and management of sports entities and athletes. More than 90 federations are working with us around the globe. They all combined add up to more than 40 million matches organized with our apps and more than 10 million marks in sports like swimming and running are processed every year.

Every stakeholder is part of our ecosystem of apps: athletes, fans, sponsors, governing bodies, clubs, referees

Without this engine, the sports sector would rely only on fragmented and legacy systems that slow down their growth and the exploitation of their assets. LEGEND is able to digest data of every sport, like results for football, times for swimming, and scoring for gymnastics.

Thanks to the tools that help federations to manage and maximize their operational efficiencies, we own two key important assets, members’ personal information, and competition data and stats, that allow us to execute our next step.

Next step: Creating new revenue streams.

A new market is taking off. Blockchain for sports and gaming creates new revenue streams. And in this early stage, there is still a need to bring it to the masses and to scale to millions of athletes in the world.

A path started by companies like Chiliz and Sorare where LEGEND has a competitive edge. Athletes, clubs, fans, sponsors, referees, and the rest of the stakeholders, are already part of our platform.

We have a plan to disrupt the sports sector. We are leveraging blockchain technologies and validated use cases to unlock inflows of resources for sports entities. Funds that help federations to grow their sports and enable more people to profit from their passion.

Don’t miss the opportunity to become part of the next generation sports platform.

Looking for talented individuals, ambassadors, strategic backers, and partners to expand our vast ecosystem.
