The app displays team schedules, complete with game times, locations and opponents, It can be downloaded to any mobile smartphone, iPad or tablet.

Athletic Director Rob Castagna is excited about the benefits of the new app.

"Not only does the app provide directions to competitions via maps and GPS applications on your device, but it also allows Garnet fans to see schedule changes in real time the minute we update them," Castagna said.

Another valuable feature of the app is its ability to add specific Garnet competitions as a calendar event for Google Calendar, Apple's iCal and Microsoft Outlook.

Recognizing the convenience of modern technology, the reality of ever-changing schedules, and the need to streamline communication, the athletic office officially launched the “Garnet App” during the fall season.

Castagna is now trying to encourage even wider use of the app for the winter and upcoming spring season. Rye Garnet sports fans should visit www.ryehs.com to download the new app.

A YouTube video instructing how to download the app is available using the link below and on RCSD mobile devices.
