Selling the Passion
There's nothing like the excitement surrounding a high school sporting event. Upgrading your fundraising efforts starts with conveying that passion--and explaining the market it can bring--to local businesses.
Hurdling Administrative Challenges
One aspect of coaching at the high school level often overlooked is the administrative challenge that comes with managing a team. Bound™ lends coaches a helping hand.
Stats and More… at Your Fingertips
The team that developed the innovative QuikStats Iowa platform is behind Bound™, which made pulling varsity level stats from virtually every sport in Iowa into the app seamless. From bowling and volleyball to wrestling, track and more, individual and team stats for Iowa high school athletes are available at the fingertips of Bound™ users.
The entry of stats for varsity level sports is mandated for all schools by the Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union and the Iowa High School Athletic Association. After the stats are loaded, they are made available for free to anyone, anywhere.
Originally, the stats were only available on a website. When Bound™ was launched in 2018, it made the information accessible via app for the first time. Currently the stats function is only available for Iowa high schools, although the technology can be configured to accommodate any state association.
