Toronto, ON – Pointstreak Sports Technologies Inc. is pleased to announce they have reached an agreement with the Great West League (GWL) to be their ‘Official Statistical Partner’ for the inaugural 2016 season and beyond.
Pointstreak’s real-time statistics platform can engage fans and media and will assist in building the GWL’s brand while enhancing the experience for their fan base.
“We’re truly excited to be partnering with Pointstreak,” said Great West League President Ken Wilson. “Pointstreak is the best at keeping statistics for a baseball league and integrating those stats into league and team media.”
Pointstreak’s real-time electronic scorebook, known as Pointstreak Stats Pro, has been utilized across North America by some of the highest-level collegiate summer leagues such as the Cape Cod Baseball League and the New England Collegiate Baseball League. Pointstreak Stats Pro will provide the GWL with the ability to score every game right at the field. By having all six teams utilize Pointstreak, fans and media across every market will have full access to live game stats, spray charts, league leaders, player profiles and advanced analytics.
“We're thrilled to have been selected as the official real-time stats provider for the GWL's inaugural season,” said Pointstreak CEO Ken Cook. “Our solution will ensure parents and fans that can't be at the stadium will have access to up to the minute updates on all games. It will also help the GWL establish an engaging online experience for all fans to find timely info on game times, box scores, stat leaders and much more. Year-over-year, we'll continue to push the boundaries with the GWL in an effort to maximize their online presence.”
