1. What is your elevator pitch?

ProLinked is a secure link that creates a digital community for free agent athletes actively seeking to connect with coaches, agents, and scouts on a global scale. We aim to give athletes the freedom to promote themselves and create their own opportunities.

2. Problem & Solution

Many free agent athletes aren’t provided with the necessary resources and exposure as drafted and top tier players. When dealing with high profile athletes who have the attention of head coaches, general managers, and front office executives the ‘sleepers’ can easily go unnoticed. The idea of ProLinked aims to create a platform that connects free agent athletes to coaches, scouts, and agents for athletes looking to enhance their visibility.

Users will be able to create their own individual profile tailored to their specific needs and interact with other ProLinked users. Having the option to promote themselves by sharing highlights and game film with coaches, agents, and scouts who are looking to add talent to their roster.

In this digital age, multiple communication channels are imperative to the success of many mobile applications ProLinked users will experience a mobile friendly application and website that’s easy to navigate and communicate with other users from direct messaging and forums. This can be very useful for scouts, agents, and some coaches who are constantly on the road recruiting and may not have access to a laptop attempting to get in touch with a player.
