AdaptivApps Launches Web-Based App For 2020 Angel City Virtual Games

DALLAS, July 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- To maximize the virtual experience of athletes, coaches and spectators, AdaptivApps today launched its web-based "Angel City Sports App" for one of America's premier Paralympic events. Powered by C-Hear's patented technology, the App – with no download necessary – will provide a seamless, efficient adventure for all involved with the 2020 Angel City Virtual Games presented by The Hartford.

The free App, which will help virtual attendees track schedules and chart results, is available through simple Google or Facebook sign-up at App.AngelCityAlliance.org. This year's event, forced to go virtual due to COVID-19, begins its three-week summer schedule July 13-19.

"With the help of AdaptivApps, we expect our virtual event to be exciting and rewarding for everyone involved," says Angel City Sports CEO Clayton Frech. "This year's event will be unique. But through our Angel City Sports App, it can also still be a great success."

Debuting in 2015 and typically hosted at UCLA, the Angel City Games feature clinics and competition in adaptive sports and activities including track and field, wheelchair basketball, wheelchair tennis, swimming, table tennis, sitting volleyball and archery. In 2019, the games attracted 300 athletes from 19 states and three countries.

Following its mission to develop innovative Apps catering to the disability community, AdaptivApps chose Angel City Games as its inaugural partner.

"We're honored to be a part of this year's Angel City Games," says AdaptivApps CEO Linda Robison. "It's great to know that, just as the athletes adapt to their differences, this event is ready to adapt to the changes brought on by the coronavirus."

This year's Angel City Games will continue with week-long competitions and clinics Aug. 3-9 and Aug. 24-30.

Says C-Hear founder and CEO Adena Harmon, "These games will be a big step in AdaptivApps changing and drastically improving how people with different abilities use Apps."
