Klevr partners with SkillShark Athlete Evaluation Software

[SASKATOON, SK, May 24, 2022 -] Klevr is proud to announce our strategic partnership with SkillShark, the leader in the digital evaluation tech space. SkillShark and Klevr will work towards valuable ideas for improved communication between coaches, athletes, and parents through mobile app technology.

SkillShark and Klevr share a common goal of making the current coaching and feedback processes more efficient while providing additional solutions that help with overall player development.Klevr and SkillShark both support practical solutions that help coaches hone in on specific areas where player development might be needed. Their partnership will provide the opportunity to reach more coaches who are looking to find improved ways to develop their athletes.SkillShark, is an evaluation software and app started by Neil Anderson, a softball coach who wanted to improve the pains that come along with the typical pen and paper evaluations. As a coach, Neil would often have weeks of data entry into spreadsheets when conducting evaluations. He found that even when the data was collected, they did very little with that data, and the athletes received almost no feedback. He knew there had to be a better way. Neil got to work on what is now considered the leading athlete evaluation app on the market today. Coaches can evaluate athletes from anywhere, simply by using their mobile device or tablet. SkillShark will automatically calculate and centralize the player data, allowing the coach to send instant feedback reports to athletes, rank and sort players into teams, even track player progress over time. SkillShark is designed for any sport, and can measure any metric that a coach wants to evaluate.

“We are extremely excited to announce our partnership with SkillShark and our use of their product in our hockey Program. This decision to use SkillShark with our player evaluations has helped us streamline our entire process to immediately evaluate players for the upcoming season. We can’t say enough about our experience with SkillShark and are so excited to see where this partnership will go.” Kris Versteeg - Klevr Founder  (11 NHL Season, two-time Stanley Cup Champion 

“Both Klevr and SkillShark are two incredible apps that I wish were available to me years ago as a coach. Providing feedback to athletes in an efficient way is pivotal for their development. With Klevr, I can easily show the athletes annotated clips of either personal development or mark-up game highlights. This helps us all see exactly where we need to get better and what we’re doing well. Every athlete, parent and coach should have this in their toolbox.” Neil Anderson - Softball Coach - SkillShark Founder
