DURHAM, N.C. -- The University of Florida Athletic Association and Teamworks have collaborated for a partnership that will streamline cross-departmental communication for coaches, athletic trainers, advisors, administrators and centralize player and staff information. Florida's partnership with Teamworks will enable the UAA to increase operational efficiency and modernize internal communication throughout the entire department.
Â
"Our student-athletes, coaches and administrators push, train and support one another every day, creating a bond that is signature to the Gator Program and yields success on the field and in the classroom," said
Jeremy Foley, Director of Athletics. "Utilizing Teamworks across our 21 varsity teams and staff will strengthen that bond to keep open, immediate communication as we strive to deliver a championship experience."

TEAMWORKS HIGHLIGHTS
- Collaboration tools allow coaches and staff to securely share important documents, forms, video, schedules, travel itineraries and more across divisions of the department and directly with student-athletes
- Teamworks' messaging module will revamp the Gators' communication methods, enabling staff and coaches to schedule or immediately send mass or one-to-one email, text, voice or push notifications to student-athletes for schedule changes, appointment reminders and more
- Customized modules tailored to Florida Athletics' daily operation
"Florida's longstanding athletic success and 36 team championships certainly stem from much hard work, but also from its leadership's foresight and adaptability," said Zach Maurides, Teamworks founder. "The department will soon realize Teamworks' returns as the staff will have more time to develop student athletes, having eliminated previously paperdriven processes and other inefficiencies, and student-athletes will be better informed, providing student-athletes' with constant communication and feedback. As Gator Nation drives for more banners and medals, our software will ensure it does so as efficiently as possible as an organization."
