PERU, Ill. - The Illinois Valley Pistol Shrimp announced today that they are currently developing a new mobile app which will launch later this spring. Users will be able to access team rosters, leaderboards, team stats, schedule, online merchandise store and much more. Coupons and special offers from team sponsors will also be available. The app will be available for both apple and android.

General Manager June Keeley says “Our goal is to give our fans’ the best possible experience and the mobile app is the perfect way to deliver fun and convenience. We have wanted to create an app for a while and this felt like the perfect time. The community has been so wonderful to us and we believe they will really enjoy this. It will also be helpful to instantly notify fans of rain or weather delays and other important information by sending notifications.”

One of the most exciting features, continued Keeley, is the rewards program where registered users can receive points for attending games and community events, and also scan QR codes at special opportunities for points. Once certain levels are reached, the points can be redeemed for merchandise and other awesome awards. The app will also have a “Fan Cam” feature where fans can share their game night photos by uploading directly into a digital gallery.

In conjunction with the mobile app, development of a new team website is also underway. The new website will have a dynamic fresh new look and offer much more functionality for site visitors. Look for the mobile app and new website to be unveiled later this spring.
