LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, December 8, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Just 10 months after launching its award-winning youth sports coaching app, MOJO was recognized today as one of the “Best Employers in Sports” by Front Office Sports in its annual awards recognizing organizations across the $614 billion sports industry that are “doing the best for their employees.”

This year’s Best Employers in Sports Award Presented by FEVO was given to 30 companies including La Liga, Premier Lacrosse League, United Soccer League, Hyperice, LeagueApps and the Denver Broncos. Prior honorees include ESPN, the NBA, and MLB.

MOJO is one of the youngest companies to receive this distinction, according to Front Office Sports, the innovative sports media company that started the annual awards in 2019.

“We are pleased that MOJO is one of this year’s Best Employers in Sports honorees,” said Adam White, CEO of Front Office Sports. “They are part of a group of companies that have navigated a tumultuous time, while not forgetting to put their employees first in everything they do."

The announcement caps a year of impressive growth and industry recognition for MOJO, which already reaches more than 250,000 families with kids who play sports. Founded in the weeks before the pandemic, MOJO assembled a world-class team of software developers, content creators, and youth sports experts. Working remotely and in its headquarters in Los Angeles, MOJO quickly forged marketing, distribution and content partnerships with titans of the sports industry, including the NBA, NFL FLAG, FC Barcelona, and US Youth Soccer. The company is poised for further growth this spring — the most popular season in youth sports — as 28 million kids aged 2-11 are eligible for COVID vaccinations and as families return to courts and fields everywhere.

“We’re honored to be one of this year’s Best Employers in Sports,” said MOJO co-founder and COO Reed Shaffner. “Our team puts great effort and care into everything we do to make youth sports easy, fun and accessible for everyone. Simply put, it’s a pleasure to come to work with such an incredibly talented team solving problems that will improve the lives of millions of kids and families in youth sports.”

Founded by veteran Disney executive Ben Sherwood, MOJO is committed to supporting families around the world with world-class technology and content. Early MOJO investors include Seattle Seahawks quarterback and Superbowl champ Russell Wilson, NBA superstar Kevin Durant (through Thirty Five Ventures) and Tom Werner of Fenway Sports Group (owner of the Boston Red Sox and Liverpool FC).

“MOJO works every day to bring the magic back to youth sports,” said Sherwood, who has coached his two sons for the last 13 years in different sports. “MOJO is also trying to bring some magic to the workplace especially in these challenging and disrupted times.”

Currently, MOJO provides content and practice planning for soccer, basketball and flag football with baseball and softball in production for spring 2022.
