The Reason Ryan Created National Sports ID
After several years of coaching his AAU basketball teams, Ryan realized there was a huge problem in youth sports. Most teams, tournaments and leagues did not abide by any age or grade rules. Coach Ryan started to realize that more times than not his teams were playing against older players playing down because the other teams coach wanted to win so bad to promote his/her business. This problem is rampid and Coach Ryan wanted to do something about it, as he felt young athletes were being taught and learning that cheating was ok.
Ryan Tremblay then created National Sports ID and an online process to verify the age and grade of youth sports athletes to assure a fair playing field for all teams to compete in. Coach Ryan’s very extensive background in sports and the internet were combined to create this very powerful tool.
