Coordinating team meals means managing a lot of moving parts, from practice and game-day timelines to travel departures and constant schedule changes. That gets even harder on the road, when you’re ordering in unfamiliar cities and trying to make sure food arrives where and when the team needs it.
ezCater helps simplify those logistics by giving teams one place to find local restaurants, order individually packaged meals, and schedule delivery wherever food is needed — whether that’s a hotel, a meet site, or a bus pickup on the road.
That flexibility has been especially valuable for Jacksonville State University during multi-day trips in unfamiliar locations.
“It has been beneficial because we’ll travel to unfamiliar cities and towns for games and be there for 48 to 72 hours. I’m not familiar with who takes catering orders locally or if they’ll deliver. ezCater has been really helpful on that side of things.”
– Matthew Boone, Head Coach of Track & Field, Jacksonville State University
