RE:          MaxPreps - OHSAA Official Source for Scores and Statistics

 

It is hard to believe that the winter sports season is in full swing! NEW for this school year, MaxPreps is the “Official Source for Scores and Statistics” for the Ohio High School Athletic Association. This sponsorship gives schools the ability to enter and manage team schedules, scores, game statistics, team rosters and team photos while also providing the opportunity to highlight team and student-athlete accomplishments. As we move forward throughout the winter sports season and beyond, please see the Common Questions and FAQ’s below to learn more.

Coaches can also manage their schedule, stats, roster, team photos and communicate safely with their staff and athletes in the app. The free app can be downloaded by coaches, athletes and parents from the iTunes app store and the Google Play store.

 

Coaches and Athletic Directors can register HERE by simply entering their email. A followup email will ensue with team information and how to access the account. If you are already a MaxPreps member, simply login in the top right corner using your current credentials.
