A roster you can stand behind

Every shift and every drill becomes scores, voice notes and a ranked board, from every sheet and every evaluator, so when a parent asks why, you have the answer.

TryoutBrain is tryout software for youth and adult sports clubs. Coaches and evaluators score athletes from their phones by voice, sliders or paper sheets; the app matches every observation to the athlete, ranks the field, helps the staff place athletes on teams, and emails each family their result with the reasons. It is built in Canada and serves clubs in Canada and the United States.

Three ice slots. Forty skaters. Parents in the stands.

A hockey tryout is the hardest kind to defend: it's fast, it's loud, and by the time the last group comes off the ice nobody remembers the second-line centre's third shift. The evaluators each saw a slice. The decisions get made in a hallway. The email that follows has nothing underneath it.
