Development of a Comprehensive Sports Performance Tracking and Community Engagement App

The client seeks to develop a high-quality, accessible mobile platform enabling recreational sports enthusiasts—such as basketball players—to track their individual performance statistics, analyze their progress over time, and facilitate social interaction through community features. Existing solutions lack comprehensive analytics, ease of use, or connection features for a broad demographic of users combining performance tracking with social engagement.

A mid-sized company aiming to provide recreational athletes with tools to monitor their performance and connect with peers through a feature-rich mobile application.

• Implement tools for deep statistical analysis and interpretation, including the ability for users and external analysts (coaches, peers) to review and interpret data via CSV exports or integrated analysis modules.
• Facilitate social connectivity through chat features, community boards, and the ability to organize pickup games within the app.
• Support categorization of games by type (e.g., pickup, league), with options for users to establish personal goals, challenge friends, and compare their stats to professional benchmarks.
• Ensure the app is scalable, secure, and reliable to accommodate a growing user base.
