You might’ve seen him before… ripping tryout sheets and drop kicking clipboards at old-school tryouts.🦈
But who is the SkillShark Shark?
He’s a simple guy with strong opinions.
❤️ Loves: digital tryouts, unbiased team selection, saving time with auto reports, giving feedback to every athlete after tryouts, and keeping athletes in sports.
😡 Hates: Clipboards, pen & paper tryouts, messy writing, spreadsheets, politics, and coaches who say “good job” after tryouts instead of sending a detailed report card.
Remember: the safest way to keep him off your back is to run your next tryout with SkillShark, the best digital athlete evaluation app.

SkillShark is designed to save time and improve player feedback, and this customer review captures both:
“This platform has not only been a game changer for our development of players, it has saved time, money and resources with how well the user interface works with the assessments and allows us to make very specific development, plans and progress with our students and families far better than we’ve done before.”
-OwnTouch Charlotte, via SkillShark's Google Reviews
Better organization in your tryout and athlete evaluation process leads to better decisions, clearer feedback, and more meaningful development for every athlete.
#SkillShark #Tryouts #AthleteEvaluations
Trying a new process for athlete evaluations can feel like a risk.
Most organizations are used to pen and paper, so switching to an app can seem complicated or completely different from how tryouts have always been run.
But once people actually try it, that concern tends to disappear pretty quickly.
Andrew Slater from Baseball Saskatoon runs evaluations for around 1,000 athletes each year and works with a large group of evaluators, many of whom have never used SkillShark before.
Baseball Saskatoon has been using SkillShark for around five years now, and every year, he sees the same pattern:
“We have our evaluators that know nothing about the system. I show them how to use it, and when I go by to check on them, they say, man, is this slick.”
It’s not about being “tech-savvy," it’s about using something that’s built to be simple and intuitive to use.
If you’ve been hesitant to move away from pen and paper, the easiest way to understand it is to try it yourself.
Set up your free account, then score a few athletes in the app, and you’ll see how quickly it clicks.
If you want a bit of guidance getting started, book a walkthrough and we’ll walk you through it.

David Ryan, owner of R&R Gymnastics in Massachusetts, shares how SkillShark streamlined their entire evaluation process, saving time while delivering professional, structured feedback to every athlete.
What their process used to look like:
❌ A full week of planning
❌ Another week of execution
❌ Manual data entry and scattered scores
Now, their entire evaluation process is faster, more organized, and managed in one central place.
Here’s what changed with SkillShark:
✅ Evaluated 200 athletes in one week
✅ Collected 150+ data points per athlete
✅ Collaborated remotely with evaluators
✅ Generated instant reports for athletes and families
✅ Created more accountability and transparency across the evaluation process
Dave often says, “What gets measured gets accomplished.”
SkillShark brings that philosophy to life, capturing detailed evaluation metrics and turning those measurements into meaningful feedback reports that athletes can use to support their development.
