   News Release Contact: Michelle Smith, VP of Marketing 781.639.7088 MomsGuide.com, Inc. National Council of Youth Sports and Mom’s Guide to Sports form a partnership to provide a new fundraising solution Marblehead, MA, January 22, 2001 - Mom's Guide to Sports and the National Council of Youth Sports have entered into a fundraising partnership in which both organizations will promote and distribute GameTime Guides from the Mom’s Guide to Sports series for team fundraising purposes. The new partnership will offer NCYS members GameTime Guides from the Mom’s Guide to Sports series at wholesale prices. With a suggested fundraising sales price of $3-$5 per Guide, there is tremendous value and a high profit margin in selling GameTime Guides for team fundraisers. Sally S. Cunningham, Executive Director, National Council of Youth Sports said, "Mom's Guide to Sports is the kind of fundraising opportunity the NCYS is proud to pass along to our members. What an excellent way to raise money and at the same time educate the spectators with the basic rules of play.” She added, “I can't wait to attend my next sporting event to see the convenient pocket guide in everyone's hands. Mom's Guide to Sports has created a winner and we are pleased to welcome them to the NCYS team!" GameTime Guides from the Mom’s Guide to Sports series are an exceptional product for sports kids to sell for team fundraising purposes. Each Guide in the series of twelve different sports explains the basic rules and terms of a given sport, along with colorful field diagrams and referee signal illustrations. For fans, these quick reference pocket-guides increase knowledge and participation in kids’ sports games. Youth sports leagues, teams, athletic departments, and booster clubs have made thousands of dollars by ordering GameTime Guides at wholesale prices and re-selling them at fundraising prices. The Guides are durable, fun to read, and easily transportable for direct one-to-one sales to fans along the sidelines. “We are looking forward to being able to support the NCYS’s objective of continued education of youth sports to all members and their fans by offering teams and organizations GameTime Guides for fundraising,” said Michelle Smith, VP of Mom’s Guide to Sports. About GameTime Guides from Mom’s Guide to Sports GameTime Guides from Mom's Guide to Sports were created by sports-mom Vicki Poretta of Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Driving her children to their many different sporting events, Vicki realized she was a passive spectator in her daughter and son's games. She simply didn't know all the rules and terms of so many sports and neither did many of her friends along the sidelines. Finding no handy reference manual other than overly technical and lengthy books geared toward coaches, Vicki created the Mom's Guide to Sports, GameTime Guide series. These handy reference Guides are published and distributed by MomsGuide.com, Inc., of Marblehead, MA, of which Vicki Poretta is a shareholder and board member.
