CompuSports was founded in 1984 to publish and distribute football coaching software. Our Easy-Scout software was one of the first football scouting software applications for personal computers - initially designed to run on the Apple II plaform.

For 25 years, our primary focus was on the publication, maintenance and support of Easy-Scout and similar "traditional" software applications for football scouting, statistics, video analysis, athletic recruiting and athletic equipment inventory management. We also distributed many of our industry's leading traditional playbook software applications, including Chalk Talk, Playmaster, Playmaker Pro and Coach's Office on behalf of their publishers.

 

As the internet emerged as a viable platform for publishing and eCommerce in the late '90's, we created a number of coaching-themed web sites, including The CompuSports Media Exchange and www.footballcoachingsites.com. Our football coaching forms "exchange" , created in 1999, facilitated the sharing of forms among football coaches - long before "cloud storage" sites like DropBox, Google Drive, OneDrive or iCloud existed. 

 

In 2009, we acquired the Option football coaching web site - www.optioncentral.net from its founder, and added videos and podcasts to its existing collection of option football articles.  A number of these podcasts were produced by CompuSports Radio, along with over 100 football coaching podcasts that remain available to this day.

 

Our YouTube Channel  was launched in 2013, and includes a sampling of the material available at Option Central, including a number of full-length Play of the Day Chalk Talk videos that we produced in collaboration with Coach Tony DeMeo.  Working with Coach DeMeo, a widely renowned authority and innovator in the world of Option football, we created 9 Virtual Playbook DVDs (now available in streaming format) ,  10 CoachTube "courses" and numerous Podcasts and audio-enabled versions of Coach DeMeo's Play of the Day in YouTube Shorts. 

 

In the Summer of 2023, we re-imagined and redesigned our www.footballcoachingsites.com web site, adding live "feeds" from web sites, podcasts, YouTube Channels and Forums.   We also assisted Coach DeMeo in preparing his latest book, Tony DeMeo's Triple Gun Offense: An Evolution of Option Football, for publication - first as an eBook, and recently in a Paperback version, that is available at Amazon.com.   Tony DeMeo's Triple Gun Offense: An Evolution of Option Football is considered by Coach DeMeo to be "the best thing he's ever done".

 

While our software development activities are on hiatus indefinitely, we remain engaged in maintaining, improving and selectively expanding the collection of tools and resources that we've been providing to the football coaching community for over 40 years.
