USASA Mid-Year Meeting
Last weekend, Demosphere traveled to Ft. Lauderdale to take part in the annual USASA Mid-Year Meeting.

On Saturday, Demosphere held multiple sessions demonstrating the Online Registration System now in place nationwide. The sessions complemented additional online sessions that took place over the summer.

Also, we discovered a "small world" type of story. Our very own Kris Baker(right) and USASA National Administrator Stephanie Walker(left) played together in the late 90's on the Ravens, an elite team in the Broward Women's Soccer League in Florida.
Phone It In™
Demosphere's latest feature proves to be a success!

Phone It In™ made its initial debut on Columbus Day weekend! Seven tournaments used the Phone It In™ system and 757 scores of over 2,000 games played were voiced in by phone!

With this new feature you can now update scores on your website directly from the field using your mobile phone!

Please contact sales@demosphere.com if you are interested in using this new feature.
Google Features
Demosphere is now offering various Google enhancements to our products!

Attention League and Tournament administrators! Fields and complexes can now be linked to Google Maps. If an address is available for the complex, you can enter an address and print out directions to the field!

If you didn't know already, Demosphere also offers Google Analytics. Google Analytics can help you find out more information about your site's visitors, such as how they accessed  and interacted with your site.

Demosphere is seeking volunteers to try out a potential new WebWriter feature, Google Custom Search Engine Integration. This new feature would allow you to do a Google search for specific content within your website.

To volunteer or for more information regarding these Google features, please contact sales@demosphere.com.
New AGC Version Released!
Demosphere is happy to announce that a new version of the Age Group Commissioner (AGC) Program has been released!

Not only is AGC now compatible with Microsoft Vista, but it is now optional to have pending check registrations displayed and available for rostering within the program! To check out all the new features available with the latest version of AGC please check out the demosphere blog.

Please contact sales@demosphere.com for more details.

Tip of the Month - Online Registration
Did you  know that if a registrant pays by credit card and you need to give them a refund you can issue that refund by credit card?

Issuing refunds by credit card saves your club both time and money, especially because when working with Demosphere, Visa and Mastercard actually refund you the average 1.98% processing transaction initially charged!

If you have any questions about refunds please contact
support@demosphere.com.
