Blue Hens Invest in Student-Athlete Success through Partnership with Teamworks

DURHAM, N.C. – Great teams aren't able to exist without great teammates.

That's exactly what the University of Delaware Athletic Department is getting with a brand-new partnership with Teamworks, the industry leader in athlete engagement software for athletic organizations. The Blue Hens will utilize the entire Teamworks platform package to deepen student-athlete engagement by seamlessly connecting them with the multitude of resources available throughout the athletic department and university.

"Teamworks is an ideal partner as we invest in resources that improve the experiences of our student-athletes," said Chrissi Rawak, Delaware's Director of Intercollegiate Athletics and Recreation Services.  "We want to develop our student-athletes in order to achieve excellence, not only during their time at Delaware, but for their lifetimes.  As a proven solution to streamline all of the moving parts, from travel to communication, Teamworks will not only simplify the lives of our athletes, but also increase the opportunity for success in competition, the classroom and the community."

The partnership comes as a part of Delaware's continuing efforts to find innovative ways to improve the student-athlete experience.

By facilitating communications and scheduling for all 21 Blue Hen teams, Teamworks will empower student-athletes, coaches and administrators to spend less time on logistics and more time focused on winning. As a part of the partnership, the Blue Hens are also incorporating the recreation services area and the spirit squads, who will also be utilizing the software in a full department wide collaborative effort.

"We're proud to be a part of UD's pursuit of excellence by improving engagement and collaboration throughout the department," said Zach Maurides, CEO of Teamworks.
