Youth Sports Online

[Jeff Brody]

I'm interested in knowing if any of you have created youth sports sections on your web sites that allow organizations, leagues and teams to post information, schedules, standings, statistics and photos. If you are doing so, I'd be interested in having you post a URL to that site and talk a little bit about how you set it up and control the content of the site (is this something that's part of your content management application, was it purchased from a third party, or was it created specifically for you by in-house code writers or contract programmers?
Thanks in advance for sharing.

The Inland Press Association's Inlander just featured a neat site developed by the Kenosha News in Wisconsin. It's called the Kenosha Sports Network, http://ksn.kenoshanews.com/.

Scott:
Thanks for suggesting the Kenosha example. I just saw the copy of the Inland Press newsletter that included the experience from Kenosha. I am anxious to talk with the Kenosha staff about how they set up their site, and remain interested in hearing from any other papers who have found ways to allow and encourage both high school students and people associated with youth sports to post information and photos about their teams on the newspaper's web site.
