What is a GPID?

SportMana is a sporting identity, participation and governance platform built around people rather than teams.

SportMana helps players, coaches, officials, volunteers and administrators maintain one trusted sporting identity, one participation record and one lifelong sporting journey through a Global Participant ID (GPID).

What problem does SportMana solve?

Many sporting records become fragmented across clubs, leagues, organizations and systems.

Participants change clubs. Coaches earn qualifications. Officials gain experience. Volunteers contribute for years.

Yet there is often no single trusted record connecting that journey.

SportMana solves this by providing one GPID, one identity and one sporting record that stays with the person throughout their sporting journey.

What is a GPID?

GPID stands for Global Participant ID.

A GPID is a unique sporting identity assigned to a participant within the SportMana ecosystem.

It remains with the participant regardless of:

One Person. One GPID. One Sporting Journey.

Is SportMana only for players?

No.

SportMana is designed for everyone involved in sport, including:

Can one person have multiple roles?

Yes.

A participant may be a:

at the same time or at different stages of their sporting journey.

SportMana maintains one GPID across all roles.

Your sporting identity, participation records and recognised achievements remain linked to you and are not lost when you move between clubs or organisations.

What is Mana?

Mana is SportMana's recognition system.

Mana helps recognize sporting involvement over time.

What are SportMana Crests?

Crests are recognition milestones within the SportMana ecosystem.

As participants grow their sporting journey and accumulate Mana, they may progress through different Crest levels.

Crests are designed to recognize long-term participation, contribution and development.

Does SportMana replace existing sports administration systems?

No.

SportMana is designed to complement organizations by providing a participant-focused identity and participation framework.

Many organizations already use registration, competition or event management systems. SportMana focuses on the individual's sporting journey. SportMana does that and much more. 

Why does SportMana focus on people?

Because sport is powered by more than teams and competitions.

Sport depends on:

Most systems remember teams.
