GAMESHEET INC.

"Founded by a couple of hockey dads with a passion for sports and a dream to make league management easier."

In 2013, while volunteering as a Convenor for Newmarket House League, Rich discovered that part of his job was to enter data from each paper scoresheet into a spreadsheet and email it to the league’s webmaster. In the age of iPads, Rich couldn’t believe that they were still keeping score with pen and paper, and manually updating stats and standings. Rich called Mike, an entrepreneur and his partner in the Cujo Invitational Tournament, and GameSheet Inc. was born.

Since then we’ve been perfecting our digital score sheet and inventing new tools to reduce the time, effort, and cost of managing leagues and scoring games.

As sports enthusiasts ourselves, and users of our invention, we are passionate and focused on making the GameSheet system the best solution it can be.

MYHOCKEY RANKINGS

MYHockey was developed as a way for fans of youth hockey to spread the love of the game. It started simply as a set of links to hundreds of clubs so people could easily locate clubs/teams to assist in scheduling games. Links were good, but soon it was obvious that we wanted real information about each team, their record, their league, who they are playing, etc. It quickly became apparent a team's record was not a viable indicator of their strength. This led to questions about which team was truly better and exactly how you might measure a team's strength or weakness. Within a year, we realized that the site must have some sort of team rating/ranking to be the tool that we envisioned. What started as a quest for locating opponents of the same skill level, MYHockey Rankings evolved as a tool to help youth hockey coaches, managers, players, and fans learn more about the sport we all love.

MYHockey's ratings are computed mathematically, with no subjective weighting. MYHockey computes an average performance rating for each team based upon how well they play against other teams and how good those teams are. There are two real inputs to this rating, they are "AGD" or average goal differential and "SCHED" or strength of schedule. AGD is currently calculated by accumulating the goal differential of each game, to a maximum of 7, and then dividing it by the number of games played. Using a max game goal differential of 7 does "penalize" teams that blow out opponents, but this is common in rating systems as it takes away the incentive for teams to run up scores and allows them to have a bad game by capping the mathematical damage. The strength of the schedule is computed by averaging the rating of each game opponent. AGD and SCHED are then added together to compute a team's official rating. A team's rating typically is not reflective of the team's best or worst games, but a mathematically computed average performance rating that translates game scores into a numeric representation of team performance.

MYHockey's first website was published during the 2003-04 season. A number of large investments have been made over the years to upgrade the platform and build out the information to hockey fans. Despite these investments, MYHockey remains free to the general public thanks to our sponsors, volunteers, and premium members. While our registered volunteers, many of whom have helped out for five to ten years, are the backbone of our information collection and validation today, every website visitor is a possible volunteer of information through our guest game score entry capabilities or through our change request system that helps keep information on separate ranking categories, leagues, clubs, rinks and teams accurate and up to date. Memberships are also available at a low price for anyone interested in extra features and/or who wants to provide financial support to keep MYHockey growing. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, please visit our volunteer information page for more information and to get registered. Each year, we add additional functionality to MYHockey and we have no plans on changing that pattern. Look for more enhancements in the coming months and years as we continue to invest in the MYHockey platform. We thank you for your continued support.

VERBERO

The Collegiate Hockey Federation (www.chfhockey.net), the national collegiate hockey governing body of the Amateur Athletic Union , and Verbero (www.verbero.com) have agreed to join forces in order to offer the CHF teams access to Verbero's custom uniform and equipment program.

The alliance has been designed to tailor Verbero!s offerings around the requirements of each CHF team rather than players and teams individually fulfilling equipment needs. "Given the explosive growth of the CHF over the past couple of years to 125+ university teams, we feel there is an opportunity to offer our Members some exclusive benefits of being part of an exciting organization – and are very happy to partner with Verbero that helps to enhance the experience of our players”, noted CHF Chairman Mark Purowitz. Verbero CEO Andy Sutton, a 15-year veteran of the NHL, commented, "We are so excited to align with the CHF as we share many of the same values related to top quality product, better access, superior service, and a more progressive way of evolving the status quo. Verbero is well positioned to care for the teams in the CHF and given our focus on custom and team-related products, we are extremely eager to showcase our offerings through our partnership with the CHF.”

"We are a team of passionate, hockey enthusiasts with deep backgrounds at all levels, truly making Verbero the brand #for hockey players, by hockey players! Our equipment is highly innovative and our custom program is unmatched, with tools and services unlike any other brand in the space. Our proprietary Team Store software makes Verbero and team-branded items available 24/7/365, an absolutely perfect complement to any non-varsity hockey program". Debuting the partnership at the upcoming Federation Cup national tournament taking place March 18-23 in Philadelphia is a great way to showcase our alignment as well as the values that make both the CHF and Verbero different, unique and ideal for collegiate non-varsity hockey teams.
