Advancing women's sports digital management and showcasing innovation and commitment to excellence - one organization at a time.
New York City, 28/ 02/ 2024 – Athletes Unlimited, a trailblazing network of women's sports leagues known for its innovative approach, has announced a new partnership with ScorePlay, the leading digital asset management software provider for sports.
This strategic alliance marks a significant shift in the league's digital infrastructure, as it moves away from using multiple platforms management, indexation, distribution and video hosting, consolidating its digital asset management under ScorePlay's all-in-one advanced solutions.

By choosing ScorePlay, Athletes Unlimited positions itself as the first women's sports league to leverage this cutting-edge technology, underscoring its status as a pioneer in the sports industry and joining NWSL and WNBA teams.
Jenny Jeffries, VP of Social & Content at Athletes Unlimited, is spearheading this exciting collaboration. Her leadership in integrating ScorePlay's technology with Athletes Unlimited's dynamic content strategy is expected to revolutionize how the league manages and distributes its digital assets. Jenny's expertise and forward-thinking approach are integral to this transition, ensuring a seamless integration of ScorePlay's services into the league's operations.
"We are thrilled to partner with ScorePlay. Their technology not only streamlines our digital content management but also aligns perfectly with our vision of innovation and excellence in women's sports," said Jenny. "This partnership is more than a technological upgrade; it's a statement of our commitment to providing the best possible platform to showcase not only our leagues but the stories of our athletes both on and off the field and court."
ScorePlay's CEO, Victorien Tixier, commented on the partnership, expressing excitement about working with an organization that shares their values of innovation and excellence. "Athletes Unlimited is at the forefront of redefining women's sports, and we are proud to support them with our technology.
