UVA Athletics Launches Updated Mobile App

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – The Virginia Athletics Department, in conjunction with Playfly Sports and WMT Digital, announced an update featuring a new look and added functionality to the Virginia Sports mobile app.

Since its inception, more than 50,000 fans have downloaded the app.

The enhanced app serves as a one-stop shop for UVA fans to follow their favorite teams, manage tickets, track live scores, tune into audio broadcasts, watch the latest videos and more.

“Our long-standing partnership with UVA and the athletic department goes far beyond traditional multimedia rights to connect them with best-in-class industry partners who help create more value,” said Christy Hedgpeth, President of Playfly Sports Properties. “WMT has a proven ability to deliver a better experience for fans, and we look forward to working with their team to bring to life a brand-new app for UVA fans everywhere.”

“WMT is sincerely appreciative that Virginia leadership trusted us to add to their digital portfolio with a new mobile app,” said WMT Digital CEO Andres Focil. “Carla Williams and her team are effectively leaning into progressive digital strategies to best serve the Cavalier fanbase.”

The Virginia Sports mobile app will continue to roll out additional features in the coming months. A number of those will be designed to give users an individually tailored experience.

Current Virginia Sports app users, iOS and Android, should navigate to their device’s app store and install the most recent version of the app. Once the update has been installed, users will automatically begin to experience the enhanced app.

New Virginia Sports mobile app users should simply go to the iOS app store or Google Play Store, search ‘Virginia Sports’, to download the latest version of the app.
