Henman Communications, a London based sports and lifestyle PR agency, has been appointed by SPRYT, a new online sports platform designed to help sports and fitness individuals, teams and clubs find new training partners, teammates, coaches and classes in your area.

The free-to-use SPRYT platform enables and encourages open communication between those looking to get fit and active. The platform can also connect people with sports and fitness coaches, clubs, teams and a range of sporting facilities. 

The concept behind SPRYT is that on any phone, a user has access to information about where their local teams, facilities and coaches are based near home, to avoid having to travel long distance to play, train or exercise. SPRYT offers users access to more than 80 different sports and fitness activities.

Users are able to select from a range of different sports and activities in order to get fit and meet other like-minded active people.

Richard Henman, MD & founder of Henman Communications said: “We are really delighted to have been appointed by SPRYT to help grow their social media and online presence. SPRYT is another great example how technology can have help us find training partners, fitness and sports classes, coaches and sports facilities – all in our local areas and keep us fit and healthy! It’s such a simple concept, free to use and has a huge number of commercial possibilities it’s very exciting to be involved at this early ‘start-up’ stage.”

Co-founder of SPRYT, Paul Lyes added: “I had the idea for the platform after moving to London from South Africa last year. Moving into an area full of people you don’t know is very daunting, however being in that position I started looking for a sports team or sport club to join.  I found getting the right information in London was difficult and hence the concept was born!”

Co-founder Daragh Donohoe said: “At present we are focusing on building the SPRYT profile in London, but hope to soon be launching in other cities in the UK and also other international territories in the future. Providing people with access to a dedicated web based sporting platform and online community of active people, clubs, teams, all conveniently based near to where you live, is a great way to find a new activity or sport that you love.”
