Challenges

Before adopting MatBoss, Coach Surabian faced significant challenges related to scoring and video management. The main issues included:

  • Scoring Difficulties: The manual scoring process was cumbersome and inefficient.
  • Lack of Video Storage: There was no centralized place to store and review match videos, making it difficult to address and correct technical issues.

These challenges impacted the team’s performance by limiting the ability to conduct effective film review sessions, which are crucial for identifying and correcting mistakes.

Solution

Coach Surabian first heard about MatBoss through other schools in the area that were using the platform. Intrigued by the positive feedback, he decided to give MatBoss a try. The decision was driven by the need for a wrestling-specific video and stats program that could streamline their workflow.

Implementation

The implementation process was straightforward and efficient. Key steps in the process included:

  • Initial Setup: The booster club purchased two iPads and a MatBoss subscription.
  • Integration: MatBoss was quickly integrated into the team’s routines, being used at duals, tournaments, and practice sessions.

Coach Surabian found the setup to be quite easy, allowing the team to start using MatBoss effectively without significant delays.

Results

Since adopting MatBoss, Bridgeland High School’s wrestling program has seen notable improvements:

  • Improved Film Review: The ability to store and review videos has enabled effective film review sessions, helping athletes understand and correct their positions.
  • Time Savings: The integration of video and stats in one platform has saved considerable time in administrative tasks.
  • Enhanced Performance: Athletes have shown improvement over time, benefiting from the visual feedback provided by the video analysis.
Conclusion

MatBoss has significantly enhanced the coaching strategy and team management at Bridgeland High School. By providing a seamless integration of video and stats, the platform has streamlined coaching tasks and improved athlete performance. Coach Surabian particularly appreciates the ease of use and the ability to conduct effective film review sessions.

While Coach Surabian notes that a feature allowing simultaneous use for both boys and girls teams without switching iPads would be beneficial, he strongly recommends MatBoss to other coaches. The platform has proven to be a valuable resource for enhancing training and achieving better results.

I would absolutely recommend MatBoss to other coaches. MatBoss is a great resource for coaches and kids. It has streamlined our processes and helped us focus more on improving athlete performance. MatBoss has allowed me to show improvement over time, which is helpful with kids. The ease of use is one of the best features, making it a great resource for both coaches and athletes.
