HANOVER, Md. – Fivestar has partnered with the US Box Lacrosse Association (USBOXLA) to bring the Fivestar App to over 25,000 individual members and 40 sanctioned events, including the USBOXLA Nationals in August.
The partnership aligns Fivestar with USBOXLA’s youth, high school, college, and adult programs and provides USBOXLA with a digital partner for their athletes to get recognized for their achievements through the Fivestar App. In addition, players and fans can upload and rate the highlights from the Nationals, and USBOXLA will select an All-Tournament team based on the highlights posted on the Fivestar App.
“Fivestar is thrilled to partner with USBOXLA and showcase the tremendous athletes across all ages within the organization. Box Lacrosse epitomizes what Fivestar is about – fast-paced, action packed and full of highlights. My relationship with Shaydon and Matt Brown is another reason this partnership so special,” said David Cottle, Vice President of Fivestar.
“We are excited to partner with the Fivestar App because Box Lacrosse is all about electrifying highlights. From crease dives to BTBs, our USBOXLA members are now able to capture, post and rate the moves and skills of America’s elite box players,” said Shaydon Santos, President and Co-Founder of USBOXLA. “Our USBOXLA Nationals All-Tournament team will be selected by the fans of box lacrosse using this versatile app, and we look forward to additional opportunities with the Fivestar team.”
