Make £500 pounds in 30 seconds

Consider yourself a groundbreaking film director? Or how about an advertising genius? Well put you money where your mind is

Comenplay, a new sports network, are looking for great creative thinkers to help us create a viral video. Lets face it, we all watch them on You Tube and send them to our friends, so why not get involved and make yourself a quick fortune. Think you know what works – well prove it

We are running a competition to see who can give us the greatest viral video, and the prize is £500

The brief is simple – using theme of sport – create a catchy video based on the tag line “don’t play with yourself, find people to play with” or “don’t get fat, get fit”

Then load your video to You Tube and send the link to callan@comenplay.com

That’s it – plain and simple.

For detailed terms and conditions, and more information on the network – please visit www.comenplay.blogspot.com. We also highly suggest browsing the site www.comenplay.com to find out more information on the company and product

Comenplay.com offers free individual home pages for sports clubs

Comenplay.com, the premiere social network for sport, today announced their offering to sports clubs and associations alike.

Comenplay.com is a network for sport recently launched in the UK. The site brings together individuals, teams, clubs, coaches and associations with the central objective of encouraging participation in sport and physical activity.

What makes the sports start up stand out from the rest is their unique platform - that will essentially provide a sports club with their own network within an already established community. There is no administration, time or monetary cost involved. This is a free service that would cost thousands to set up for an individual club.

For the clubs involved, this means that they get their own web facilities with full functionality to connect and communicate with their members, and at the same time retaining full control of the memberships. This does not detract from having your won website, but rather adds value as there is support from a major network that has media partnerships with many sports associations and bodies

Dr. Asif Qasim - a practicing cardiologist, explains the opportunity and simple process: “We specialise in participation sports and have developed comenplay.com to improve communication within clubs and associations, and to connect individuals, teams, clubs and associations.”

The realization that one individual may be involved in many different sports and clubs at any given time inspired this multi faceted approach.

To get involved and set up a network for your club, the easy 3 step process would be as follows:

• Set up your flexible Comenplay Club Profile
• Invite your members to join
• Connect as Comenplay Buddies

Your Comenplay Network gives you control of your member network, and provides user friendly communication tools:

• Comenplay E-mail to message all or selected members
• Comenplay Club Notice Board
• Activity Posts for events, practices, classes and matches

Your members are automatically alerted when new notices or posts are submitted, and they can use your Comenplay Club Notice Board and their own Activity Posts to connect with one another.

With a dedicated team behind comenplay, huge partnerships with big names such as Sport England, and the fact that you essentially get your own website at no cost or hassle – if you are a sports organization, there is little reason not to get involved.

Comenplay.com announces official Media partners

Comenplay.com, the premiere social network for sport announced today their list of partners formed thus far. The social network created for sports enthusiasts has been making good progress since their recent launch

Comenplay.com is a network for sport recently launched in the UK. The site brings together individuals, teams, clubs, coaches and associations with the central objective of encouraging physical activity. The start up was designed and developed by Asif Qasim - a practicing cardiologist with a passion for sport.

The product offering is two tiered and truly unique. For sports clubs and organizations, it provides a platform that gives clubs their own members’ network as well as free promotion. Any club or association thinking about redeveloping their website should seriously consider the comenplay option where they have free, flexible web facilities and member networks which they can manage and control.

For individuals it means being part of a network dedicated to a common interest. The product itself is a very functional and relevant one. Members can easily interact with one another, and search by sport, time or location. The site currently has 30,000 users per month and the numbers are on the increase.

August marks the network’s announcement of their official partners. The team behind the comenplay.com has been hard at work in formulating strategic partnerships with some major sporting bodies and corporations. These include Sports England, Physioroom.com, Team Modena, British Military Fitness, and Travel Leads.

Sports England, the Government agency responsible for advising, investing in and promoting community sport to create an active nation, has set up 49 County Sports Partnerships to coordinate community networks and promote sport. Through using the comenplay platform, each will have their own network, which can be used to connect to local cubs, facilities, teams, press and the public. This will be a huge aid in achieving their goal of getting 2 million people more active in sport by 2012 – and making sure that participation is sustained.

The Team Modena Racing team has also partnered up with the network. The Team Modena Aston Martin DBR9 bore comenplay.com logos for the first time at Sebring, Florida(17th March), and then in June at the Le Mans 24 Hour – the most famous car race in the world.

Team Modena Director Rik Bryan, formerly a long distance runner, added “I run and cycle regularly, and have a daily exercise routine that I can perform wherever I am. Comenplay gives fantastic support and encouragement to everyone to play more sport and be more active”.

"Comenplay.com has a positive and inclusive message," says Dr Asif Qasim, founder of comenplay, "encouraging people to play more sport and be more active. We are delighted that Team Modena are helping us to promote this."

Comenplay.com is one to keep an eye on, and is rapidly becoming the place to find information on local sports clubs and facilities. Rest assured that this network is no attempt to capitalize on a currently hot media topic. It is a very user friendly and useful resource, backed by great ideals and the goal of generating increased levels of activity through connecting sports men and women.
