PrepChamps Closes $1.2 Million Series A Round Funding



PrepChamps, a fast growing online social recruiting community for high school sports, announced today that the company has secured over $1.2 million in series A funding from a number of angel investment groups and private investors. The influx of financial resources will further assist PrepChamps in its goal of getting high school athletes recognized and recruited.

Created in an effort to increase social recruiting and social networking for 7.5 million of the nation's high school student athletes, PrepChamps will use the funding to build off of its past and current successes: its new website, its many partnerships, its combines and tournament affiliates, and its recent collaboration with myYearbook.com to sponsor virtual 'battles'.

"These efforts and initiatives have caught the attention of several 'angel investors', and with this additional capital, PrepChamps will further solidify its position in the high school sports social recruiting marketplace," stated PrepChamps CEO Dean Bundschu.

"Indeed, this will directly translate into further recruiting and networking opportunities for the thousands of current athletes, coaches, and fans who have profiles on our site and for the millions that we will continue to reach out to," continued Bundschu.

PrepChamps recently launched a dynamic new website, which in addition to creating an entire athletic profile in a virtual format with photos and videos, users can write blogs, create forums and groups online, and perhaps most importantly, they're now able to track their eligibility and progress through PrepChamps' industry groundbreaking NCAA Clearinghouse Checklist.

Free for high school athletes, coaches, scouts, and fans who can visit www.prepchamps.com to create a profile, search athletes and view combine and in-game video footage of up and coming college bound athletes looking to "Get Recognized and Get Recruited".
