Ulanguzi Launches Alumni Extranet for UNC Women's Soccer

National Champions choose award-winning design agency

RALEIGH, N.C. (January 15, 2007) 2006 NCAA National Champions UNC Women's Soccer recently selected Ulanguzi Creative Strategies, an award-winning design agency located in Raleigh, NC to develop an alumnae extranet that keeps past players in touch—allowing them to share photos, exchange messages and email teammates. Team Manager Tom Sander chose Ulanguzi to create the site based on the agency's strong performance in interactive media with related brands, such as UNC (Football) Lettermen (www.UNCLettermen.com) and UNC football alum and Detroit Lion Dre Bly (www.DreBly32.com.)

Through advanced planning, design and technical delivery, the Ulanguzi team provided a solution for current and past athletes, acting as a secure, interactive resource. In it, players have access to a personal and fellow player profiles, site-wide message board and a series of slide-show-styled photo galleries.

Sander was thrilled with the design and functionality of the site, "We had high expectations for a website that put players back in touch with each other. It not only had to embody the Carolina spirit but it had to be enjoyable to use and easy to manage. Ulanguzi exceeded our expectations and I am looking forward to the life-long community that Carolina Soccer can foster.”

"It is fantastic that UNC Women's Soccer captured top honors in the NCAA tournament," congratulated Ulanguzi Managing Partner Dylan Bost. "Now they have a great way for past players to come together and share in that excitement and pride."
