Boccia Connect Canada
A digital national infrastructure layer for disability sport in Canada. Not merely an app, but a living system that connects players, clubs, coaches, organizers, and institutions into one coordinated ecosystem.
Reducing Friction Everywhere
Discovery Problem
Many potential players don't know boccia exists or how to find a club. BCC makes boccia visible, searchable, and welcoming.
Coordination Problem
Clubs, coaches, and organizers spend enormous time on logistics. BCC automates and streamlines so volunteers can focus on athletes.
Growth Problem
Boccia lacks a unified digital backbone for scaling nationally. BCC becomes that backbone.
Fundraising Problem
Most clubs cannot do traditional fundraising because athletes can't physically participate. BCC becomes a fundraising machine for local clubs.
