Too bad they were not working 24/7 on these apps instead of girly bnr advertising for the billery boys and girls. Management may have lost our money on that poop. Liberals are certainly good on spending our money instead of theirs.......................But maybe they can dig in and deliver the goods now. Better late than never.................:( :( :(

MOKO Launches Its Exclusive High School App “Bigteams Powered by REC*IT” To Over 4,000 U.S. High Schools - Allows MOKO to Capture The Highly Valuable Youth Demographic Cultivating A Student Audience From The Moment They Enter High School Until They Graduate College
Highlights
• Exclusive agreement with BigTeams grants MOKO access to provide its app, BigTeams powered by REC*IT, to over 4,000 U.S. high schools, targeting the highly valuable ‘youth’ demographic
• Extending audience reach from colleges into high schools, MOKO will engage and capture teen students, a highly desired demographic to brands and advertisers as they create more “word-of-mouth” content than any other age group
• MOKO will be able to capture and engage with a student user over an extended period of time, through transitioning a high school user to a REC*IT college user
MOKO Social Media (NASDAQ: MOKO and ASX: MKB) today announces the release its new app, BigTeams powered by REC*IT, made available to students at over 4,000 U.S. high schools, under an exclusive agreement with BigTeams, the largest high school sports software platform in the U.S.
MOKO’s app, BigTeams powered by REC*IT, uses BigTeams data to provide scheduling information, team rosters, player stats, up-to-date sports announcements and social media integration in an easy to use mobile app for both students and parents at high schools across the U.S.
The new app provides MOKO with a huge opportunity, extending its audience reach from an already valuable college market, into the highly sought after high school market. According to the U.S. Department of Education, there are approximately 15 million students enrolled in U.S. high schools this fall and BigTeams is the high school sports market leader with approximately 15% market share. This provides MOKO with a market opportunity of over 2 million high school students, and their parents. High school students are one of the most desired demographics by brands and advertisers, as teens aged 13 - 17 create more “word-of-mouth” content than any other age group. With 68.4% of students attending college after high school graduation, as reported by the Bureau of Labor, MOKO will also be able to transition users from BigTeams powered by REC*IT to its flagship college app, REC*IT, allowing MOKO to capture and engage with student users over multiple years, making those users even more valuable to advertisers.
MOKO’s suite of bespoke college apps include:
• REC*IT - the leading mobile app for college intramural and sport activities, made available exclusively to around 1,100 U.S. colleges;
• REC*IT FITNESS - MOKO’s recently launched app for college fitness activities; and,
• Speakiesy - a closed-campus social network that can only be accessed with a “.edu” email from a specific college.
The BigTeams powered by REC*IT app will roll-out with the assistance of BigTeams, who will market and promote the app to schools, faculty members and coaches through their pre-existing network and relationships. BigTeams and MOKO also plan to feature the new BigTeams powered by REC*IT app at the 2015 National Athletic Directors Conference and the National Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association Annual Meeting in December, hosted in Orlando. This is one of the largest industry conferences for high school athletic directors, allowing MOKO to engage and inform thousands of high school administrators across the country about the benefits of the new BigTeams powered by REC*IT app.
