For competitive academies & clubs · One platform, one player record
Every week, every family sees their kid getting better — from a report your coaches build in 30 seconds. That’s what makes families re-enroll. The whole club stack — scheduling, dues and payments, roster, your club website — comes with it, one login.
Alex · U12 · Midfielder
Strength this week
First touch under pressure is sharper — settled three balls into space against a high press on Saturday.
Focus for next week
Scanning before he receives — we’re cueing “check your shoulder” so he sees the pass before it arrives.
“Encourage him at home — he’s starting to lead the back line.”

Same coaches · Same families · Same fees · Different season
One system · The whole club stack
A chat tool, a form builder, a scheduler, a payment link, and a spreadsheet holding it together — you pay for all five, your families open none of them. Vimasu runs the whole club in one login, and becomes the one app your families actually open — because it’s the only one with their kid inside it.
Every club has a site a volunteer stopped updating two seasons ago — old roster, dead schedule, a registration link that goes nowhere. Vimasu renders your public site from the teams, staff, programs and schedule already in the system, so it can’t go stale. Registration and payment sit on the page, not in a form somewhere else.

3 dimensions to rate
This is one of three taps your coaches will do per player. Multiplied by every session.
How it works
Three taps on the sideline — a rating, a strength, a focus. It drafts the report in your program’s voice, you approve it, families read it Sunday morning. No exporting, no second login, no coach ever asking “how do I use this.”

Three ratings. Two notes.
On the sideline, in the locker room, or after dinner. Mobile-first. Under thirty seconds per player.

Sunday morning, every week.
A polished development report — strength, focus, and what to encourage at home. The visibility families pay for.

The product
Not a stat dump — a short, specific story about their kid: what they did well this week, what they’re working on next. Parents forward it. That’s the product doing your marketing.
Weekly Development Report · Soccer example

Defender · Week of Apr 22
Strength this week
Strong first touch and calmness on the ball under pressure in 1v1 situations. Held possession through three consecutive defensive sequences in the second half.
Focus for next week
Improving receiving angles when checking back to the ball — particularly off the back line during build-up phases.
Coach's note
“Real composure tonight. Encourage at home to keep that body language — it lifts the whole back line.”

You review and approve Sunday morning. Director-signed development reports land in every family’s inbox before the next week starts. Renewal conversations change immediately.
Onboarding is white-glove and included in the price.
No setup fees. No professional services upsell. No second weekend before reports go out.

Founder, Vimasu
Founder's note
I've spent many years close to youth sports development — watching the same gap show up in club after club, academy after academy: families paying thousands per season and getting game schedules in return. Coaches know the players are growing. They just have no scalable way to make that growth visible.
Vimasu is what happens when you take the way coaches already think about players — sport by sport, framework by framework — and turn every session into something families can actually see. Then clubs asked us to run the rest — scheduling, payments, registration, chat — so that record would stop living in a sixth disconnected app, and Vimasu became the system the whole club runs on. We started in soccer, but the same engine now runs for hockey, basketball, baseball, volleyball, tennis, wrestling, swimming — 27 sports and counting. Each one in its own coaching language, not a soccer template with the words swapped. If you take development seriously, in any sport, you should be using it.
Some of what we've been writing about → field notes
Sport-native · Not generic team management
Technique.
Game IQ.
Mindset.
What your soccer coaches grade
Every tool you’ve tried is a graveyard of logins your coaches abandoned by week three. This one speaks your sport — so a coach rates in the words they already think in, not a soccer template with the words swapped. Adoption isn’t a hope you’re paying for. It’s the design.
One platform · Every sport
Each with its own development pillars, positions and benchmarks — not a one-size-fits-all template. Find yours:
Don't see yours? — new sports ship with a custom framework, white-glove.
The compounding moat
By a kid’s third season it’s a full record — every rating, every report, the week the weak foot finally clicked. A family leaving means abandoning all of it. Nobody walks away from their child’s history.
Player history · on record
U13 · Defender
A record no group text, end-of-season form, or rival vendor can reconstruct
Team apps stop at logistics. Vimasu runs the club — and owns the development layer they can’t.
Why it can’t be shortcut
Sport-native across 27 sports.
Built around the framework your coaches already think in — Technique · Game IQ · Mindset in soccer, Skating · Skills · Hockey Sense in hockey, Takedowns · Mat IQ · Conditioning in wrestling, each in its own language. Generic vendors face years of sport-specific R&D to reach parity in even one vertical — we have depth in dozens.
Editorial workflow, not auto-send firehose.
Every report passes a director before it reaches a family. Competitors building auto-AI lose trust on the first hallucinated note. We don’t.
One system, not another tool in the stack.
Chat, registration, waivers, scheduling, payments and 1:1 booking — clubs cancel the patchwork one tool at a time. Vendors selling a single point feature can’t answer a platform that already holds the development record.
Voice-matched AI, not generic LLM output.
Reports sound like your program — terminology, tone, framework. A copy-paste generic AI competitor produces output families immediately recognise as filler.
Run brackets and group stages with live standings and public pages — no GotSport, no TourneyMachine, no bracket spreadsheet. And because visiting clubs enter through Vimasu, every box score lands in a player record. Your event becomes a doorway into the platform for clubs that haven’t joined yet.

Brackets & group stages
Single-elimination or round-robin, live standings, public bracket pages your families can follow.
Cross-club entry — the moat
Rival clubs’ teams enter your event through Vimasu. Their players’ stats deposit into a record — so the tournament seeds the platform with clubs who haven’t signed up.
Spectator passes
Sell digital gate passes to fans; revenue settles on the same rail as dues and registration.
Tournament performance becomes part of each player’s permanent development record — the one thing no bracket tool keeps.

Communication and progress visibility — top unmet expectation in youth sports
Source · Aspen Institute · Project Play
The market exists. The competitive academies and clubs exist. The families willing to pay for visibility already pay for everything else. The layer is missing.
Who it's built for
If all you need is a schedule and a group chat, you don’t need us — and we’ll tell you so. Vimasu is for programs that compete on how well their players develop, and want families to see it.
80–250 players · 6–14 teams
Scaling family communication beyond what TeamSnap and group texts can carry. Differentiating against the competing program two zip codes over.
Why now
Renewal pressure mounting · Parents asking for more visibility
1–3 sites · skills-development focus
Premium pricing requires premium visibility. Families paying $300/month for skills training need to see why every week — not just at the end-of-season showcase.
Why now
Premium positioning · Differentiation is the wedge
Showcase · academy · college-recruiting tier
Pathway-track families — ECNL and MLS NEXT, AAU and prep, AAA and junior, showcase ball — compare your reporting to what college recruiters expect. Structured weekly development is table stakes at this tier, not a bonus.
Why now
Recruiter-aware families · Structured pathway expectations
2+ sports · Cross-pathway program
One development OS across hockey, basketball, soccer, lacrosse — whatever your program runs. Unified family-communication standard, sport-specific frameworks underneath.
Why now
Multiple sports · One brand standard · Unified ops
Not sure if you're a fit? — we'll tell you honestly if Vimasu makes sense for your program.
Pricing
Priced by active players — never a seat you’re not using. Start free; the player record is free forever. Do the math a director does: it pays for itself the first season it saves a single family.
Procurement
27 and counting — soccer, basketball, baseball, softball, football, hockey, volleyball, lacrosse, tennis, golf, swimming, track & field, wrestling, martial arts, gymnastics, cheer and more, spanning team, racquet, individual, combat and aquatic sports. Each ships with its own development framework in that sport’s coaching language (Technique · Game IQ · Mindset in soccer, Skating · Skills · Hockey Sense in hockey, Takedowns · Mat IQ · Conditioning in wrestling) — not a soccer template with the words swapped. Custom rubrics let you define your own dimensions entirely. Don’t see your sport on the list? We ship new ones with a custom framework, white-glove.
Yes — that’s the point. Scheduling, RSVPs, roster & family CRM, payments, game recaps, chat, registration and waivers all live in Vimasu, so clubs cancel the patchwork one tool at a time (10 categories live today, 8 more in beta). To make switching painless we import from TeamSnap, so coaches never enter data twice during the move. The reason clubs make the switch isn’t the consolidation, though — it’s the one thing no point tool has underneath: a permanent development record for every player.
Three taps per player — under thirty seconds each. Most coaches finish a full roster in under ten minutes from their phone. The format matches how coaches already think in their sport’s dimensions — so adoption isn’t a behaviour-change project.
Player photos are opt-in, never used for ML training, never shared cross-organization, never used in marketing without explicit per-parent consent. Hard-coded into the upload pipeline and database row-level security. We treat it like medical data.
Custom rubrics are first-class. Every sport ships with a sport-specific default you can use as-is or fork — or define your own dimensions, weights, and rating scale entirely. The AI drafting adapts to whatever framework you set, so the reports always sound like your program in your sport.
Roster import + coach briefing + first reports sent inside one week. White-glove onboarding is included on every tier — not a separate professional-services upsell.
Yes — Coach Free is open. Solo coaches get one team and up to twenty players for free, forever. Use it for your team, build a track record of structured weekly reports parents love, then bring it to your director when you’re ready. The whole program upgrades together — you keep your data and your players seamlessly. Create your free coach account any time.
Export everything in CSV + PDF. No data hostage situations. 30-day money-back guarantee on the first month if Vimasu isn’t a fit.
Still on the fence? with your roster on screen.

The families deciding whether to come back are deciding right now — send them a reason this Sunday. We import your roster and brief your first coach, the record’s free, your whole club is $1. If your coaches aren’t using it in 14 days, you don’t pay.
