Coaches can gain a better understanding of athlete progress and participation
Sport management software can allow coaches to have a greater understanding of athletes. For example, Sport:80 allows coaches to easily see the progress of their athletes to better identify pathways for progression. Coaches can also have visibility into member participation and engagement. This allows coaches to have a clear view of the training they need to provide athletes, and they can further monitor athlete progression.
Coaches have their own login to the system and can easily access their personal information
A key benefit of sport management software is that it allows athletes and coaches to access all of their data from one place and utilize a suite of self-service functions. An online membership database, such as the Sport:80 Platform, provides each coach with their own login to the system, allowing them to access their own progress and personal information. This provides coaches with complete autonomy over their personal information and allows them to update it from any location.
