How Girls Wrestling Teams Leveraged MatBoss for Live Video + Stats at a Major Tournament

Challenges

At the Franklin Savings Bank Girls Wrestling Invitational, multiple high school girls wrestling programs faced a familiar set of challenges:

• Manual stat tracking: Coaches and volunteers were relying on hand-written scorebooks and delayed stat entry, creating extra work after long competition days.
• Video disconnection: Match video was captured separately and wasn’t tied directly to performance data, limiting the usefulness of film review.
• Time constraints: With rapid back-to-back matches, coaching staffs struggled to provide quick turnaround feedback to athletes.
  

These challenges made it difficult for coaches and wrestlers to review performance efficiently and extract actionable insights during a fast-paced tournament environment.

Solution

Coaches at the tournament turned to MatBoss to address these pain points by combining live match data capture with synchronized video playback.

MatBoss was used on-site to:

• Capture match statistics in real time
• Automatically link that data to video clips
• Allow coaches to pull up clips tied directly to key stats immediately after each bout
  

With everything in one platform, coaches could support athletes with precise, data-backed feedback — as soon as the tournament day ended.

Implementation

The MatBoss setup at the tournament was straightforward and coach-driven:

• Quick setup: Teams brought tablets/phones already prepared with MatBoss installed.
• Live capture: Coaches or statisticians input stats directly during matches.
• Video sync: Match footage was recorded concurrently and automatically tied to the tracked stats.
  

Despite the compressed tournament schedule, teams were able to capture usable data and film with minimal disruption to their routine.

Results

Using MatBoss at the Franklin Savings Bank Invitational delivered immediate benefits for participating girls wrestling teams:

Conclusion

Bringing MatBoss into a live, competitive tournament setting helped girls wrestling teams move beyond manual stats and disjointed video workflows. By unifying live data capture with video playback, MatBoss enabled quicker insights, streamlined coaching tasks, and strengthened athlete development at a pivotal event.‍

MatBoss continues to empower wrestling programs — whether in regular season duals or high-stakes tournament environments — by making video and stats work as one source of truth.
