EAP portfolio company announces partnership to establish all-in-one sideline replay and video breakdown solution for youth and collegiate sports

Entrepreneurial Accelerator Program (EAP) portfolio company SkyCoach, the leading sideline replay technology company, and Krossover, the leading sports film analysis and statistics company, are partnering to integrate their platforms and service the youth sports and collegiate marketplaces.

“This is the first step toward an exciting future for our customers,” said Keith Simpson, CEO of SkyCoach. “Both Krossover and Stack Sports share SkyCoach’s values for exemplary customer service. We look forward to providing the best and most comprehensive solution possible.”

“Our goal at Krossover and Stack Sports is to provide a premier film analysis solution for coaches,” said John Mathew, General Manager of Krossover. “This partnership with SkyCoach allows us to improve on our customers’ experiences, while simultaneously providing expanded resources to SkyCoach’s current clients. Establishing this strategic partnership is the next step toward a comprehensive film analysis solution for coaches.”

Krossover and SkyCoach’s partnership will initially be offered to lacrosse and football programs for the 2019 season.
