GameChanger Becomes Exclusive Scorekeeping App and Pitch Count Technology Partner of the SCHSL
COLUMBIA, SC –The South Carolina High School League (SCHSL) is pleased to announce its new partner, GameChanger, the #1 rated youth sports app for team management and scorekeeping. The partnership makes GameChanger the exclusive scorekeeping app and pitch count technology partner of the SCHSL. GameChanger will help South Carolina coaches and parents score games and manage teams while also helping SCHSL members ensure youth pitcher arm safety through its pitch count technology.
“There is something to be said in a name – “GameChanger” speaks volumes for our latest sponsor. The South Carolina High School League is excited to announce a partnership with GameChanger, one of the most recognized names in baseball and softball. GameChanger is currently a mainstay among many of our member schools. Having their level of technology in place for our state championships will catapult SCHSL events even further. Gamechanger’s support for the SCHSL is much appreciated while the support they offer to baseball and softball coaches is something we are happy to share with our membership,” said Jerome Singleton, SCHSL’s Commissioner.
According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information, there is a proven relationship between innings pitched and upper extremity injury. Scorekeepers can leverage GameChanger to easily track how many pitches have been thrown and rest a pitcher once he or she crosses a certain threshold. The app can also seamlessly sync the pitching data to ensure teams adhere to each school’s requirements.
GameChanger is now partners with 20 state athletic associations overall, and 15 of the top 20 states in terms of the number of teams, as the company continues to expand its reach across the U.S.
“At GameChanger, we’re always looking to support high school teams that want to empower their coaches with technology,” said Sameer Ahuja, President of GameChanger. “Our apps make it easier than ever for these coaches and parents to manage and score their games while also providing valuable pitching data to protect youth arms.”
GameChanger now covers more games in a Spring month than the entire history of Major League Baseball. In just one year, they covered over 4 million youth sports games and the number of GameChanger users could fill Madison Square Garden 30 times on a given Saturday.
