The challenge

Vikrant Pratap, who runs Khel Sports across cricket, badminton, football, athletics, swim and chess, had 47 active WhatsApp groups by August 2025. Every parent wanted updates on their child. Coaches were forwarding the same drill scores three times. Tournament fees came in via Google Pay screenshots. The mess was working — but barely.

“Parents finally stopped asking us ‘how is my child doing?’ at the gate. The weekly digest does that for us — and they trust the data.”

— Vikrant Pratap, Director

What changed

  • Weekly parent digest covers attendance, drill scores, peer percentile, and coach's note. Sent every Sunday 9 AM IST. Open rate: 87%.
  • Tournament module ran 14 events in 9 months — bracket builder, live scoring, accommodation tracking, prize-money calculation. Manual ops fell 90%.
  • Performance percentiles are the unlock — parents see their child against the cohort, not just their score. NPS jumped 25 points.
