Coaches: what if you could have at your fingertips all the Career Stats of all of your current AND former players? What if you could have one location to direct college scouts? What if this location tracked 3X as many stats as the NPSAA?

Parents: Wouldn't it be convenient (as part of a transcript) to have all his/her high school career sports achievements in one place? Even "Christian Character", "Leadership" and "Courage" Awards are tracked.

Student Athletes: How cool would it be to know your Average Yards per carry this season, or Percentage of Shots on Goal (soccer), or Passing Completion Percentage during your career? Imagine being featured in the "Homeschool Stat Leaders" that will be referenced across the nation by the media and college recruiters.
