Identifying the Need for a New Solution
Coach Schween initially did not realize his athletic program needed a new athlete management system. However, as his program expanded and integrated more technology, including ForceDecks, GPS and velocity-based training systems, Steve found himself juggling data across multiple platforms. Athletes were inconsistently inputting information, and managing reports across different tools became increasingly time-consuming and inefficient.
From Siloed Systems to Integrated Insights
Why RockDaisy?
Steve was impressed by how user-friendly and customizable RockDaisy’s platform was. With guidance from RockDaisy team members, he quickly got up to speed on building dashboards that met his program’s needs. The ability to get responsive, hands-on support from the RockDaisy team played a significant role in his decision.
“RockDaisy’s support is incredible. I wasn’t even tempted to look at other systems.”

Top 3 Takeaways from Coach Schween Experience with RockDaisy AMS
- Centralized Data = Greater Efficiency
RockDaisy AMS consolidates data from multiple platforms (ForceDecks, VBT, GPS, and more) into one central location. This eliminates the need to switch between systems, saving time and improving data accuracy for both coaches and athletes. - Customized Dashboards for Targeted Insights
The flexibility to build unlimited dashboards tailored to each sport and coach’s needs has been a game-changer. Coaches can easily access the specific metrics they care about, such as bar speed for wrestlers or body weight trends for football players. - Enhanced Athlete Engagement and Buy-In
With personalized profiles, athletes now have easy access to their performance data. This visibility encourages greater accountability and engagement, with athletes proactively reviewing and discussing their progress with their coaches.
These improvements have not only streamlined day-to-day operations but have also fostered a data-driven culture throughout the entire athletic department.

“We’re building something special here. By focusing on performance data, readiness, and collaboration, we’ve created a system that works for both the athletes and the coaches. It’s helped us stay efficient, stay informed, and, most importantly, improve our athletes’ performance”

Streamlining Athletic Department Operations
In addition to performance data, RockDaisy has helped unify the athletic department’s operations. The software integrates with the athletic training department, allowing trainers to input injury reports and treatment protocols directly into the system. This seamless communication between coaches and trainers improves both injury management and return-to-play protocols.
Steve has also worked with his athletic department to use RockDaisy for eligibility checks. The RockDaisy team provided personalized support to create a system that tracks rosters and eligibility reports, a feature that could greatly benefit other high schools.
Coach Schween uses the Daily Trend Report to quickly monitor all athletes and track their improvement over time.
Continuous Improvement and Future Plans
With one full year of integration under his belt, Coach Steve is still discovering new ways to optimize the platform. He plans to expand the use of RockDaisy’s workout builder feature to further streamline programming. Additionally, he aims to develop more sport-specific dashboards to enhance data accessibility for his coaching staff.
A Game-Changer for High School Athletics
For programs juggling multiple data sources, RockDaisy AMS has proven to be a transformative solution.
“I’d be lost without access to the RockDaisy Athlete Management System”
