K12 Sports Tech is on a mission to help connect all athletic administrators nationwide to the tech they need to succeed, and create impactful opportunities and experiences for student athletes.

To accomplish this, transparency and engagement by vendors that serve these wonderful programs is essential. So, K12 launched the Vendor Impact Initiative, in which vendors are encouraged to send their customer base K12’s Vendor Impact survey. The survey reviews vendor performance across 8 Impact Categories and provides valuable insights for vendors to optimize their tech and support of athletic departments.

To aid in our efforts, K12 Sports Tech is excited to announce a partnership with Squadlocker. Squadlocker is offering athletic administrators $50 or more in custom gear to Review a Vendor/s using the K12 survey.

“Squadlocker is a clear leader in school athletics apparel innovation,” said Abby Emerson, Founder and CEO of K12 Sports Tech, “so they are a natural fit as a K12 partner. We are excited to partner with them not only to reward administrators for sharing vital, valuable feedback about their tech providers, but to help aggregate key data and drive vendor transparency in the school sports tech space.”

SquadLocker CEO George Overholser said, “We are proud to support the K12 Sports Tech program mission to assist athletic administrators nationwide to improve understanding, access, and transparency related to technology. Great software helps them spend more time creating impactful opportunities and experiences for student-athletes. That’s what we’re all about at SquadLocker, as well.”
