Our Founding Story

Our journey started at the 2019 Sloan Analytics Startup Competition, developing a product that helped fans understand sports analytics. As we continued to build our product, we discovered that sports analytics are the perfect medium for teaching math and data literacy skills to fans. We have taken this discovery and integrated it into making an impactful product. As our product has evolved, the StatRookie team has grown to include talented designers and analysts, who share the vision of using sports to explore education.

What is StatRookie?

StatRookie is a fan engagement platform that focuses on educational outreach. Fans engage with real player and team data to answer questions about sports analytics and strategy through bite-size learning modules.

Our Values

Our content is created with three values in mind. First, we use real player data and real-life situations to make our content authentic. Second, we make our content actionable so fans can take what they learn from StatRookie and apply it to their sports interests. And third, we work to present StatRookie content in an engaging way so that fans continue to challenge themselves to keep learning.
