St. Croix Soccer Club Success Story

How the St. Croix Soccer Club's Staff Saves 30 Hours of Tedious Paperwork

Stillwater, Minnesota

65+ Teams

1150+ Players

The Challenge

With about 800 athletes who who tryout for competitive teams, the St. Croix Soccer Club was struggling to keep up with paperwork and overall score tabulations after evaluation sessions. The club uses paper forms to record player scores during tryouts, creating hundreds of individual forms that needed to be collected and then manually tallied to determine each player’s score. Those scores were then entered into a spreadsheet to determine the top-ranked players. A second version of the spreadsheet was then created to post to the club’s website to announce teams. This process was tedious, and it introduced the risk for human error throughout.

The Solution

To simplify the process, the St. Croix Soccer Club turned to TeamGenius’ evaluation software. While the club opted to keep using paper forms, they benefited from using the software’s capabilities to quickly rank players and create rosters. After
transferring the scores from the paper forms into the application, the software quickly generated results. It removed the need to manually calculate scores and determine playing rankings.

“It saved numerous hours and human error. We caught some mistakes this year we might not have in the past” said Nathan Klonecki.

The Result

Using TeamGenius software resulted in a savings of about 20-30 hours of work for the tryouts administrators. They no longer had to spend time manually calculating scores and ranking players. It also reduced the risk of human error when determining teams, and allowed the roster to be quickly created and posted to the website.
