01.01 Décrivez votre startup en détail
UNAFFI is a SaaS Marketplace in the sports industry connecting people wanting to play sports with the opportunities to play those sports at any level. The platform that we provide aims to act as a complete directory of all sporting opportunities that exist in our user's areas and then act as a user friendly marketplace platform that allows users to organise and manage all administrative tasks involved in getting to active participation in sports. From hiring and paying for local sporting facilities, to finding and joining regular sporting activities, to registering for larger sporting events of any kind, UNAFFI aims to UNIFY all sporting administration and communication onto one platform and app to allow for a more unified experience for users and athletes and to offer economies of scale to all sporting bodies and clubs that might not have the resources or knowhow to implement a solution in this space themselves. UNAFFI brings unification in sports.
01.02 Quel est le problème principal que vous essayez de résoudre ?

02.01.02 Justification de la contribution de ma startup
Although not directly focused on this goal, UNAFFI may contribute to an environment where this can be the case by making sports more accessible to all people and thereby not allowing sports to only be accessed by people of certain wealth levels. So sporting opportunities will be more accessible even to the poorest of people, making their quality of life better.

02.02.02 Justification de la contribution de ma startup

02.08.02 Justification de la contribution de ma startup
UNAFFI will provide employment opportunities for people by making traditionally volunteer run positions viable for paid employment positions through the use of efficiency and economies of scale. Sporting opportunities being more accessible will lead to more money being earned by those within sports which will lead to more jobs and more employment opportunities and better accessibility to those opportunities within the sporting industry. Coaches for example are the easiest example to understand as their services will be promoted more effectively allowing them to earn better salaries and allowing for more people to be employed as coaches and trainers.
