We'll also have a sports classifieds section to fulfil the need of our visitors for any sports related services in their locality (e.g. sports facility providers, sports centers, sports events, shops etc. etc.)

We'll also launch a Sports Jobs section and tie up with all the sports federations and institutions.

With our access to all the sports institutions and corporations we intend to get into Sports Event Management & Media Partnerships.

Our Sports Portal is already well established and growing at a rate of more than 200%.

The E-commerce & Classifieds sections are still under development (50%).
