Every skill above is highlighted because we train on every single one. Bayesian modeling, production pipelines, tracking data, machine learning, app deployment, version control. Your students don't learn this in a classroom. They learn it by building real tools for your program with professional guidance.

We Know the Problems

Sound Like Your Program?

We've talked to dozens of collegiate athletics programs. These come up every time.

"We have student managers collecting data on paper and putting it in spreadsheets."
We set up real data workflows so your student analysts go from manual entry to structured databases with automated pipelines. Skills they'll use in any career.
"Our coaching staff wants dashboards but nobody knows how to build them."
We train your students to build Shiny apps and interactive dashboards that coaching staff will actually use. Shot charts, scouting reports, performance trackers — deployed on any device.
"We want analytics but don't have the budget for a full-time director."
We act as your fractional analytics lead. Advisory, training, and consulting on retainer. Your students do the work. We guide and build capacity semester over semester.
"Students rotate out every year and we lose all institutional knowledge."
Everything lives on our platform. Code, dashboards, models, documentation. When seniors graduate, juniors inherit a working system with real training materials.
"Our students want to work in pro sports but their resumes are thin."
Every project becomes a portfolio piece. Real dashboards, real models, real deployed apps. When they apply to the White Sox or Dodgers, they have proof of work — not just coursework.
What We Deliver

Three Ways We Work With Your Program

Start small or go all-in. Every engagement is scoped to your budget, your sport, and your students' skill level.

01

Student Analyst Training

Structured, instructor-led training for your student managers and analysts. Live sessions with professional cloud environments. Real sports data. Real tools. Real portfolio projects that get them hired.

02

Embedded Consulting

We work alongside your students on real projects for your teams. Not a slide deck. We're in the code with them, building dashboards and deploying tools your coaching staff will actually open on game day.

03

Fractional Analytics Lead

Don't have budget for a full-time hire? We serve as your program's analytics advisor on retainer. We set the direction, scope projects, review student work, and liaise with coaches. Senior-level guidance at a fraction of the cost.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Who delivers the training and consulting?
PhD statisticians and data scientists from pro sports front offices, top research universities, and the open-source data science community. Specialists in Bayesian modeling, production Shiny development, data engineering, machine learning, and sports-specific domains like tracking data and biomechanics. Not generalist consultants. People who have built the models, deployed the apps, and published the research.
Our students are beginners. Can they handle this?
We start where your students are. If they've never written a line of code, we begin with Python or R fundamentals. If they're already coding but need to level up to production-quality work, we meet them there. Every engagement is scoped to your program's current skill level.
How does this work with the academic calendar?
We build around your schedule. Training cohorts align with semesters. Consulting projects flex around your sport's season. Advisory check-ins adjust when things get busy. We understand that October looks different for a football program than it does for a baseball program.
Do you also work with professional teams?
Yes. Our team has extensive experience inside pro front offices and we work with professional organizations as well. The training, consulting, and advisory framework is the same — the scope and complexity scale up. If you're a pro team, reach out and we'll scope an engagement for your department.
What about confidentiality?
We sign NDAs before any engagement begins. Training can use your program's data or our sports datasets depending on your preference. Any tools we build for your program stay with your program.
We have an analytics club that wants to help our athletic department. Can you bridge that?
That's one of our favorite setups. We can train the analytics club through our club partnership program and connect their project work directly to your athletic department's needs. The students build real tools, the department gets real value, and everyone has something to put on a resume.
