Hooper Stats is the simple way for a PARENT to track their own kid's basketball game — without burying your face in a spreadsheet and missing the play. That's the whole point of it: every stat for YOUR player, logged with one thumb while you're still watching the court. Big, glove-friendly buttons for a bucket, a board, an assist, a steal. When the final buzzer sounds you get a clean recap card you can text to grandma in two taps. NO ADS. NOT NOW, NOT EVER. You pay for the app, so it works for you — not for advertisers. No ads, no tracking, no selling your kid's data. Ever. WHY PARENTS LIKE IT • Built around your own kid — not a team clipboard • One-thumb live tracking — huge tap targets, no fiddly menus • Made for the stands — works one-handed, glance-and-tap • Instant recap card after every game, ready to share • Season view — averages and trends as the season builds IT TELLS YOU WHAT TO WORK ON After a few games, Hooper Stats reads your kid's stats, spots where they're struggling, and suggests specific practice drills to fix it — from a built-in library of 55. It refreshes after every game as they improve. It works instantly, offline, and privately — no extra cost, no AI subscription. BUILT FOR THE RECRUITING YEARS Every game becomes a clean, organized record — not screenshots and memory. Export your kid's full history as a spreadsheet (CSV) or a polished PDF stat sheet to send to club, high school, and college coaches. Whole season or a single standout game. The recruiting paper trail, built as you go. WHAT YOU CAN TRACK • Points, with 2PT / 3PT / free-throw shooting splits • Rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, turnovers, fouls • Game-by-game log and full season averages • Tournament mode — group games and see the run at a glance ALSO FOR COACHES: RUN THE WHOLE BENCH Not just watching one kid? Flip on Coach mode and track every player on BOTH teams, live — tap the jersey, log the stat, with an "I'm not sure" fallback for when the game's moving fast. An advanced-stats toggle for serious staffs, a complete box score at the buzzer, and the same CSV/PDF export for the whole roster. It's a real team tool — the app just leads parent-first. PLANS Start with a 7-day free trial on any plan: • Single Player — track your own kid in depth (the core experience) • Team Players — track a whole roster as a coach • Both — the parent-and-coach bundle (best value) Monthly or yearly (yearly is two months free). Cancel anytime. Family Sharing supported, so the whole household is covered by one subscription. YOUR DATA Your stats live on your device and sync privately to your account only if you choose to sign in. We don't sell data and we don't show ads — ever. Built by a basketball parent who was tired of choosing between watching the game and writing down the game.
