Bluefields Scores Angel Funding To Help Amateur Football Teams Get Organised

Bluefields.com, a sort of 'Groupspaces for amateur football', has scored 100k from seven angel investors including Julian Ranger of iBundle and Jalin Somaiya, Google Sales Project Leader, although Somaiya's involvement isn't associated with Google. Both will join Bluefields' board.The other five angels are Lee Strafford, co-founder of Plus.Net and ex-Chairman of Sheffield Wednesday FC, along with Mark Wainwright, Brian Lawrence, Jim Mann and Ami Shipro. The funding will be used to launch Bluefields' football (soccer) focused player availability and payment applications this August in time for the start of the football season in the UK. The platform is both browser-based and will have mobile apps for iPhone and Android.
