SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR MANAGING THE PARTICIPATION OF ATHLETES IN ORGANIZED SPORTS

摘要

A system enables registration of individual athletes who wish to compete in organized sports leagues or other competitions. Once registered, an athlete presents an identification card which is used by the system to ensure that the athlete is not currently suspended from competition before being permitted to compete in a particular event. The system enables athletes to safely compete in multiple sports or multiple competitions sanctioned by different organizations. The system is capable of maintaining both health-related and performance-related information for each athlete while providing appropriate confidentiality and secure access.
