Rochester, Minn. (August XX, 2024) — GoRout is excited to announce that it is now an official sponsor for the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA). As the leading provider of coach-to-player communication technology for softball teams of all levels, GoRout is set to bring unparalleled support and innovation to coaches of the association for the next three years. 

As part of the agreement, GoRout will be named the presenting sponsor of the D1, D2, and D3 Top-25 polls for the NFCA; the title sponsor of each D1 and D3 Caucus; and the title sponsor of a Board of Directors meeting. GoRout will also work to spread awareness and education about various NFCA initiatives among its audience through a variety of channels. 

“We are excited to announce GoRout as our newest Official Sponsor! GoRout is passionate about the sport of softball and to helping coaches enhance on-field communication with easy-to-use technology.  They are a fast-growing, first-class  company committed to excellence,” said Carol Bruggeman, Executive Director of NFCA. “ GoRout’s support of our polls, Convention Caucus meetings, and Coaches Clinics show broad-based support throughout the softball community.  We look forward to working with them to grow the game.”  

GoRout is Now an Official Sponsor of The National Fastpitch Coaches Association

One-way communication technology was approved by the NFHS for high school softball in 2025 and now GoRout Diamond is accessible for teams across all levels. This sponsorship with the NFCA will be pivotal in increasing awareness about the system. As the most reliable, affordable, and scalable communication solution on the market, GoRout Diamond has a place in every softball program across the country. 

“GoRout is always looking for creative ways to work with first-class coaching organizations that share our commitment to making coaches’ lives easier, and we couldn’t be more excited to sponsor the NFCA,” said GoRout CEO Mike Rolih. “This sponsorship will allow softball teams across all levels to access best-in-class coach-to-player communication tools and provide their programs with a technological advantage. We are continually improving the GoRout Diamond system to offer softball coaches much more than just pitch and play calling. Upgrades rolling out this fall will include automations such as emailed pitch reports and advanced data, an upgraded user interface, and much more that we are excited to announce over the coming months!”

Just like our communications system, we are constantly seeking ways to improve our team at GoRout. To further commit ourselves to the growth of softball and our role within it, we are now hiring a Softball Sales Lead to spearhead our initiatives in the game.
