Usportstar - Online Showcase for sporting talent

Fancy your chances as a sports star but overlooked by the talent scouts? Now is your opportunity to make a breakthrough.

A highly original website that showcases new sports talent was launched at Chelsea Football Club on, in conjunction with the opening of the major football business exhibition, "Leaders in Football".

UsportStar.com is the first in a series of community driven portals by Dreamscape Media and is designed to target people with genuine sporting talent. By combining the worldwide appeal of Youtube with the extraordinary popularity of reality television shows, UsportStar.com generates content from video clips uploaded by the public. This user-created content promotes the skills and sporting ability of athletes of any age who believe they may possess star potential.

The use of the site to register and upload videos of sporting prowess and skills will be open to everyone. It is a concept which will reach out to people of all ages and backgrounds, drawing them even closer to the sports they love and increasing their sense of involvement. For many it will fuel dreams of discovery and achievement by showcasing the talent and skills of athletes of any age and ability who think they have what it takes.

Usporstar.com is hoping to become a primary source of talent for professional team scouts, managers, major brands, agents and academies. The site will be a major point of reference for all professionals who are constantly on the look out for promising young sportspersons.

UsportStar.com has been developed with attention to detail, to ensure its broad appeal, ease-of-use, effectiveness and ethicality. All teams, scouts and agents will be thoroughly vetted and authorised, and all videos checked and verified; parental approval and protection of young people is intrinsic to the site's design.
