Head Coach – Water Polo Canada
SkillShark has been a highly effective tool for myself and coaching staff to help pick our U14AA Ringette Team. The accuracy through SkillShark could never be achieved by our old school ways of pen and paper. I would highly recommend SkillShark for your next evaluation process

Gary Banerd

Head Coach
We have 1000 kids, 87 different sessions, and close to 100 hours of evaluations that take place. I wouldn’t even be able to calculate the time SkillShark has saved us. Evaluators find it easy, coaches are happy, and I now have concrete data that I can show a parent if questions come up. It’s a great program.
