Based on survey data from over 150 parks and recreation departments across 37 states
The surprising truth about scheduling in parks & rec
Our research uncovered something unexpected: 34% of departments still use manual methods for staff scheduling – more than any software solution on the market.
Not because they prefer spreadsheets, but because nothing better exists.

Why we created this report
We built Athletify because we kept hearing the same story from recreation professionals: scheduling is painful, complicated, and takes too much time away from actually running great programs.
Unlike generic scheduling tools, Athletify was designed specifically for parks and recreation – with no user-based pricing, so you can add all your seasonal staff without costs multiplying.
