What GameSheet does

GameSheet Inc. is a privately held Canadian software company that builds digital scorekeeping and league-operations software for amateur and youth sports leagues, primarily in ice hockey, box and field lacrosse, and—since April 2024—soccer. Founded in Newmarket, Ontario in 2012/2013 by Rich Berman and Mike Kensit, the company originated from a digital iPad scoresheet designed to replace pen-and-paper scorekeeping at youth hockey games and has since grown into an integrated platform comprising a Digital Scoring App for iPad (hockey/lacrosse), a Mobile Scoring App for iOS and Android (soccer), a web-based Dashboard for league and tournament administrators, a free GameSheet Teams mobile app for coaches and parents, an iFrame-based website embed for scores and standings, and a Player Cards souvenir product. The platform differentiates on offline-capture with cloud sync, digital signature and game-locking for officials, integration with national registries (Hockey Canada Registry and USA Hockey), and direct integrations or endorsements from state and provincial governing bodies including NYSAHA, Massachusetts Hockey, Minnesota Hockey, OMHA, OLA, OFSAA, CISAA, and the Eastern Hockey Federation.

The business operates a B2B subscription model primarily sold through direct enterprise field sales to leagues, tournaments, and associations, supplemented by self-serve freemium adoption of the GameSheet Teams mobile app. Pricing is quote-based, positioned as "less than the cost of a new hockey stick per team," and billed annually; ancillary revenue comes from short-term iPad rentals for tournament weekends and custom-branded printed score sheets. Distribution is anchored by governing-body endorsements and partnerships (USA Hockey, North American Hockey League, Tier 1 Elite League, MYHockey Rankings, SuperSeries Hockey, Washington Capitals/High School Hockey Hub, Bulgarian Ice Hockey Federation), while go-to-market combines demo-driven enterprise sales, weekly training webinars, on-demand help-center content, and community-led adoption among referees, scorekeepers, and youth hockey parents. The company is founder-controlled, operates fully remote, and reports no external institutional funding.
