Founders of FairGame

Having kids that play various sports we know first hand the difficulty on how to cheer up a child that has just lost

yet another game, and lost with a massive margin.

There is a better way to setup tournaments so that our kids get a chance for a equal opponent, it was this dilemma that sparked the creation of FairGame.
