Hey Product Hunters!
Remember growing up and going to your high school football or basketball games? Did you play high school soccer or tennis? What about little league baseball or softball? Do you have great memories of being with your teammates or your parents cheering you on? Now imagine growing up where none of those things exist. Unfortunately it’s a reality for many kids and schools today with more youth and schools soon facing this same fate. For almost 40% of school districts nationwide are charging fees to participate in sports, known as “pay-to-play.” In fact, by 2020 it’s estimated that 27% of U.S. Public high schools will be without any interscholastic sports programs.
StatRow’s Impact:
StatRow’s mission is to help reduce the financial burden on young athletes. Our platform allows youth and school organizations to use their own content (game highlights) to help fund the cost of playing. Our goal is for any kid to play any sport because of their love for the game and not have to decide which sports to play based on cost. The goal is for every organization and every school on StatRow to reduce their reliance on registration fees and fundraisers each year.
Today, StatRow released our iOS app and will follow up with a Droid version and desktop site by the end of the year. If you have an iPhone download the app on today and help us fight the youth and school sports funding crisis.
Feel free to reach out with any questions about StatRow. Also connect on Twitter @dj_mcduffie. Look forward to hearing from everyone!
As a friend of lots of folks in the high school athlete space, I often hear about the political challenges of getting funding allocated for various teams and athletes. It's cool to see what you guys are doing with StatRow, DJ and team. Definitely sharing with my high school coaching friends!
@onebandwagonfan Awesome! Thanks Harold...The goal is to reduce the reliance on registration fees and donations and have teams fund themselves so that all kids can play sports..Oh and we all can see youth and high school highlights from across the country...
