Growing the Game Means Supporting the Athletes Who Play It

Girls flag football is creating opportunities that did not exist just a few years ago.

More athletes are playing. More high schools are building programs. More colleges are recruiting. Flag football will make its Olympic Games debut at Los Angeles 2028, bringing even more attention to the sport.

And more girls are beginning to see a real path to continue playing the game they love at the next level.

At scoutSMART, we want to help build that path.

That means giving student athletes better ways to showcase who they are and what they can do. It means helping coaches discover and evaluate talent. And it means connecting the flag football community with resources that can support athletes throughout their journey.

Our new partnership with SYZMIK Sports is another step toward that goal.

More Than Athlete Recruiting Technology

scoutSMART was built to help solve a visibility problem in girls flag football.

Talent exists everywhere. Opportunity does not always find it.

Flag football players can showcase their film, athletic information, academics, measurables and more in one scoutSMART profile. Tools like scoutVISION make it easier to turn game film into recruiting content. Our NEW Evaluation Tool gives coaches ways to evaluate athletes based on the criteria that matter to their programs.

But helping athletes succeed goes beyond recruiting technology.

As the sport grows, we believe the resources surrounding its athletes should grow with it.

That is where partnerships matter.

Why SYZMIK?

SYZMIK Sports brings a different kind of expertise to the girls flag football community.

The company develops protective performance equipment for athletes competing in flag football and other non-tackle sports. Their focus on athlete protection complements scoutSMART’s focus on visibility, evaluation and recruiting.

We support the game in different ways, but share one goal: creating more opportunities for girls flag football athletes.

“SYZMIK and scoutSMART share a mission to support and grow girls’ flag football. By combining SYZMIK’s innovative safety products with our recruiting platform, we’re building a partnership that benefits athletes, programs, and the sport as a whole,” said Diane Bloodworth, CEO of scoutSMART.

Creating More Value for the scoutSMART Community

The partnership agreement will bring new benefits directly to scoutSMART athletes.

The partnership brings new benefits directly to scoutSMART athletes. Players with a complete, free scoutSMART profile will receive exclusive discounts on SYZMIK gear. SYZMIK will join scoutSMART’s Player of the Week program. Together we will recognize and celebrate standout girls flag football athletes.

The two organizations will also collaborate on athlete education, safety resources, recruiting content and future events and initiatives.

These opportunities allow scoutSMART to offer athletes more than recruiting tools. We can provide more resources, recognition and support to help girls flag football players succeed on and off the field.

The partnership extends beyond products and recognition. scoutSMART and SYZMIK will work together on:

• Athlete stories and recognition
• Girls flag football recruiting education
• Player safety resources
• Co-branded content for athletes, parents and coaches
• Event activations and future scoutSMART initiatives

We are not just building a database of athletes.

We are building connections between players, coaches, programs and organizations that want to move girls flag football forward.

Building the Infrastructure for What’s Next

The growth of girls flag football is exciting. It also creates a challenge. The sport is evolving quickly, and the infrastructure around it needs to keep pace.

Athletes need better ways to get discovered.

College coaches need better tools to find and evaluate talent.

Families need better information as they navigate a recruiting process that is still taking shape.

Programs need technology and resources designed specifically for their sport.

And the athletes stepping onto the field need organizations that are invested in their long-term success.

scoutSMART is working to help connect those pieces.

Our partnership with SYZMIK is one more way we can bring valuable resources into the growing flag football ecosystem.

The Game Is Growing. So Are the Opportunities.

There has never been a more exciting time to play flag football. But opportunity starts with being ready for it.

Build your scoutSMART profile. Keep your information current. Add your film. Show coaches who you are as an athlete, a student and a player.

And as the sport continues to grow, scoutSMART will continue working to build the tools, partnerships and connections that help athletes grow with it.

Get seen. Get evaluated. Get your opportunity.
