FanBladz is a technology company that is focused on helping high school student athletes promote their academic and athletic successes to fans and recruiters.

Vision

Enable every high school student athlete (SA) the opportunity to earn a college scholarship by being discovered while enjoying their athletic journey and sharing it with fans and recruiters.

Mission

Our mission is to leverage technologies to help high school student athletes promote their success and be discovered by colleges.

Why

Student athletes work hard on their sports careers and need a simple, online location to consolidate their performance information for fans and recruiters to review and follow.

We think that sports recruiting should be transformed from an existing manual search process into an intelligent and analytical search engine that expands the network of student athletes into a national market for recruiters to find key talent anywhere that is aligned to the specific needs of the sports program. This will allow the “undiscoverable” talent a chance to be found and recruited by coaches anywhere.

How

For the SA, their accomplishments can be easily shared with others, including coaches and friends, so they can see a complete summary of their career in a single location. Our sharing technology is similar to LinkedIn with a focus on high school athletes. Coaches will be able to search, review, and follow SA based on the area of interest, similar to the way employment recruiters use LinkedIn to find candidates.

Overview

FanBladz is an online service that allows high school student athletes (SA) the ability to build resumes and player performance profiles (PPP) of their academic and sports performance history in a centralized, web-based location for sharing with family and fans while enabling their discovery by college recruiters using advanced analytical search and capabilities.

The Problem

There is currently no platform for a SA to consolidate their academic and athletic careers and promote their successes with others. Currently, the SA has a MaxPreps profile that is mostly managed by the high school coaches, HUDL profile for their athletic video, and Twitter to promote their successes, including game highlights and scholarship offers. These are disparate and ineffective at providing a cohesive summary of their athletic and academic success and make being discovered or followed by fans and recruiters difficult.

The Solution

FanBladz consolidates all the SA’s academic and athletic performance into a single profile and enables them to share that profile with others. This is a great way for family and friends to be able to stay current on the progress of the SA and see the accumulation of success over the SA’s high school career.

The FanBladz platform also allows recruiters the ability to specifically search for players by performance metrics (e.g., 40 yard dash), biometrics, and game statistics. This will enhance the recruiting process by allowing recruiters the ability to easily discover talent all over the country, follow that SA, and engage directly with them.
