WILDER, Kentucky (September 16, 2015) – Kings Hammer Soccer Club and Front Rush have partnered to provide college coaches the option to access tournament data and video directly from their mobile device via Front Rush’s Coach Packet product. Coach Packet will be available for both the Gateway Showcase presented by Gildan in November 2015 and the adidas Blue Chip Showcase in April 2016.
With Coach Packet, college coaches can be confident that they have the most up to date roster information and schedule for each event. Coaches will also have access to side by side rosters with custom evaluation metrics all from their iPad or mobile device. The dedicated iPad app has offline capabilities, so there is no need to have 3G or wifi to use it while sitting on the sideline at the event. Every game at the events will be filmed through a third party video partner and the video will be uploaded into Coach Packet within two weeks after the event, allowing coaches to watch games they missed, re-visit a player they evaluated or even evaluate talent without having been present at the event.
“We are excited to be working with Kings Hammer and to continue to make headway in the soccer space,” said Brad Downs, Front Rush’s co-founder. “We know Kings Hammer events are top notch and we are confident that Coach Packet will contribute positively to the overall recruiting experience for both the college coaches in attendance and those recruiting virtually.”
Coach Packet will be available to every collegiate soccer program in the country. College coaches will have the ability to purchase the events right in Coach Packet and, once unlocked, they will be granted access to all the roster information, schedule, and video. Roster data and schedules for reach event will be available prior to the event, allowing coaches to tag players of interest and build their staff’s schedule at the event.

“We are very excited to welcome Coach Packet as a Kings Hammer Soccer Club sponsor,” said Kings Hammer General Manager, Dave McIver. “Coach Packet provides a valuable recruiting tool for all college coaches attending our Gateway Showcase presented by Gildan and our adidas Blue Chip Showcase. Both events provide the opportunity for hundreds of college coaches to scout the top male and female players from across the country and Canada each year. Coach Packet will enhance the college coach experience which has always been a top priority for our events.”
