A Leader Emerges in the World Of Soccer Mergers
In a world of constant change, one dominant force is emerging. While acquisitions in the market are not new, Blue Star Sports is changing the face of the youth soccer landscape.
The industry leader in integrated software and payment solutions for youth sports organizations with over 25 million users in 23 countries, Blue Star Sports has been flexing its muscles and announced today its latest acquisition of GroupNet Solutions – a leading provider of cloud based registration systems for youth sports leagues and events.
GroupNet, based out of Chantilly, Virginia will join the rapidly growing Blue Star Sports family of companies located across the United States and Canada.
“Blue Star Sports continues to pursue the best and brightest technology companies with the most interesting customer relationships in youth sports,” said Eric Frazier, Co-Founder and Chief Vision Officer at Blue Star Sports.
“GroupNet has always been a very customer centric company, and we are excited to bring new resources and technology tools to our users as a result of joining the Blue Star Sports family,” said GroupNet Solutions President John Jackson. “We firmly believe in the direction of Blue Star Sports and the steps they are taking to improve youth sports. We are proud to join forces with them to help execute on this vision.”
“GroupNet Solutions has a long history of ‘white glove’ customer care and deep subject matter expertise which when combined with Blue Star’s resources, will expand the solutions we can provide for our current and future customers,” said Frazier who is a highly successful entrepreneur.
Based in Frisco, Texas and backed by American billionaire businessman and Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, Blue Star Sports is a major player in the sports technology world and has formed powerful partnerships in the American soccer universe.
Blue Star Sports has acquired Bonzi, Pointstreak, Goalline, PrimeTime Sports, SDI Camps, LeagueLineup, RaceWire, and CaptainU among others and is creating the Blue Star Sports Suite of services — a complete portfolio changing the way youth soccer harnesses the power of technology.
