What is Eventlink Associations?
Eventlink®, the One Spot athletic management software built by athletic directors for athletic directors, now introduces Eventlink Associations, the One Spot association management software built by a state association for state associations.
Our Story
Eventlink® started with a simple goal: make life easier for athletic directors. Built in Indiana by people who understand firsthand what it takes to lead an athletic department, Eventlink® quickly became the trusted software for schools across the state. Today, 99% of the Indiana High School Athletic Association (IHSAA) member schools choose Eventlink®, without any mandate. Our retention rate is 100% among these schools. Once a school chooses Eventlink®, they never look back! Eventlink® is organically growing beyond our home state with customers in 20 states.
Our success in Indiana led to a strong partnership with the IHSAA. We began with a simple officials licensing data-sharing agreement, which allowed their member schools to choose the software they used to schedule officials. That partnership led to Eventlink® becoming the official provider for scheduling and digital ticketing. Working directly with the IHSAA gave us courtside seats to the unique challenges and responsibilities that come with managing a state association. As Eventlink® continues to grow in schools and through partnerships with state associations nationwide, one thing is clear: schools aren’t the only ones who need a One Spot solution. State associations deserve a powerful, purpose-built, One Spot solution that supports their mission and keeps the focus where it belongs, their member schools.
Eventlink Associations is an association management software built from the ground up by one of the most advanced state associations in the country. What started as a solution for one state association is now a fully customizable platform for state associations nationwide.
“Over the past 8 years, MyIHSAA, now known as Eventlink Associations, has been developed with the goal of improving the efficiency of operations for our state association and member schools in various areas. The Eventlink® team buys into the mission of our association and shares our commitment to service. This makes Eventlink® a great partner to take what we have developed and tailor it to meet the needs of other associations and their member schools.”
