FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla.--May 4, 2005--The leading, annual Web design awards known as The Webby Awards has recognized the Detroit Lions Website, http://www.detroitlions.com, as a Webby Worthy candidate in the 9th Annual Webby Awards.

Detroitlions.com was also rated in the Top 20 among 131 professional sports team Internet sites, and the Top 10 among NFL sites, according to the most recent Sports Business Journal and University of Massachusetts Pro Sports Internet Survey released in February 2004.

"We're very proud to work with the Detroit Lions team in creating this exciting sports site," remarked Steve Momorella, co-owner/founder of TEKgroup International, Inc. "It definitely generates a great deal of attention."
