Sportsara Gold Star

I'm a weekly Los Angeles Badminton Meetup Organizer for fun, health, exercise and improving badminton skillset fundamentals

• Sportsara - A personal health & performance metrics tracker for badminton doubles players, groups, coaches and organizers
  • Problems Sportsara solves for doubles badminton pairs:
    • Weekly personal games played disappear forever (no recording data, no analytics for improving)
    • Nobody knows how good doubles pairs truly are together
    • Organizers struggle to create evenly matched games
    • Personal improvement is difficult to see
    • Badminton groups have no reliable history

• How Sportsara Works:
  • For every badminton match point recorded:
    • An estimated 1 calorie burned per point played will be tallied for each player
    • Total points played per month
    • Total games played per month
    • Total games count per player
    • Total games count per player pair
    • Total points scored per player pair
    • Active months
    • etc.
    • [Optional] Personal monthly goal settings and views
    • [Optional] A modified ELO rating will be adjusted for the playing pair
      • Inspo: ELO Rating System for Chess and Beyond
  • For coaches:
    • Use Sportsara to track students’ practice games between training sessions and help them see their progress over time
  • For organizers:
    • Make club activity visible, measurable, and easier to grow together
  • For doubles partners:
    • Every game strengthens your partnership and shows how you’re improving together
• 📣 For any bugs, usability issues, feature requests or any app product feedback, contact me here: bryan@sportsara.com I think about how to make Sportsara better almost everyday. I'd love to hear your feedback.

• "ART when really understood is the province of every human being. It is simply a question of doing things, anything, well. It is not an outside, extra thing. When the artist is alive in any person, whatever his kind of work may be, he becomes an inventive, searching, daring, self-expressing creature. He becomes interesting to other people. He disturbs, upsets, enlightens, and he opens ways for a better understanding. For those who are not artists, who are trying to close the book, he opens it, and shows there are still more pages possible.", The Art Spirit, Robert Henri, Painter, on Creativity Through the Eyes of an Art Student, passages delivered by Jack Dorsey
