Last week, GameChanger was proud to see Henry Street Settlement's Athletics and Community Enrichment Services program (A.C.E.S.) receive a $25,000 grant from our parent company, DICK'S Sporting Goods, as part of the 10th-anniversary celebration of their incredible #SportsMatter program! GameChanger teammates nominated Henry Street after partnering with them numerous times and witnessing their incredible impact on the New York community. With over 125 years of service to NYC’s Lower East Side, Henry Street’s A.C.E.S. program provides local youth opportunities to thrive through sports, mentorship, and academic support. This grant will help them expand these critical services to even more young athletes. We’re honored to support their mission and look forward to seeing the continued positive impact on local youth.#DSGLife #ItsOnGameChanger #VolunteeringIsAGameChanger

Our very own Sarah Schell will be moderating a panel on sports analytics at the Michigan Sport Business Conference in October. The student-run conference in beautiful Ann Arbor is a “must attend” for anyone interested in sports business. https://lnkd.in/gZicZF5g
The Michigan Sport Business Conference is excited to announce its next moderator, Sarah Schell! Sarah Schell is VP of Data, Analytics, and Marketing for New York-based GameChanger, a DICK’S Sporting Goods sports technology company. In this role, she is responsible for leading and overseeing the marketing and data-related functions within the organization. This includes collecting, managing, analyzing, and interpreting data from the over 7M+ games and 750K youth sports teams on GameChanger each year. Since joining the team in 2016, Sarah has transformed how the organization leverages data. Under her guidance, the data and analytics team has expanded from two to 15 teammates, firmly establishing data as a critical factor in the organization's decision-making process. Blending her knowledge of biostatistics and epidemiology earned through a Master's in Public Health from Columbia with her experience in SaaS analytics, she is uniquely qualified to examine the behavior of populations, understand causal inference, and navigate sparse data. As a former collegiate basketball point guard, Sarah is fueled by her passion for helping others do their job well. Her love for GameChanger is rooted in the joy of seeing young people grow and develop through sports. Sarah currently resides in Brooklyn with her partner Amelia and daughter Naomi.

Another Little League International World Series has come and gone, and we have a new champion! Congratulations to the Lake Mary All-Stars (Florida) for taking the title with a thrilling 2-1 extra-innings victory against Chinese Taipei.

During their championship run, their score updates via GC were viewed over 3.5 million times. 👀 ❗ Crazy stat: according to their profile on GC, this powerhouse 12U team hit 24 home runs in their 18 games this summer before the LLWS! 😱 #itsongamechanger #youthsports #llws
We are thrilled to announce the launch of our inaugural Stay & Play Champions program. Five incredible teen athletes from across the nation have been selected to lead community initiatives that promote play persistence and combat the decline in youth sports participation. Each Champion was nominated by a non-profit for their outstanding leadership, dedication to reducing barriers for underrepresented athletes, and commitment to making a positive impact. Meet our 2024 Stay & Play Champions: ⚽ Sydney Mednik (15), Potomac, MD - Nominated by Athletes for Hope🏀 Kingston Baez (17), Saint Cloud, FL - Nominated by Rise League 🏈 Kingston Davenport (17), Montour, IA - Nominated by Indigenous H.O.O.P.S.
