I’m Abhilash J, a Product Communications Specialist at SportStr, dedicated to keeping sports academies informed about the latest platform enhancements, feature releases, and product innovations. My role focuses on communicating meaningful updates that help coaches, administrators, and academy owners maximize the value of technology in their daily operations.
I collaborate closely with product, engineering, and customer success teams to understand user needs, platform improvements, and upcoming developments. This allows me to translate technical updates into clear, actionable information that helps users stay informed and make the most of new features and capabilities.
Through SportStr, I publish release notes, product announcements, feature highlights, and platform updates while sharing practical guidance on how sports academies can leverage technology to improve efficiency, enhance communication, and support long-term growth.

- Sportstr Facial Recognition App for Android. Attendance just got a major upgrade.
The Sportstr Facial Recognition App is now available on Android as a paid add-on. It
allows academies to mark student attendance using advanced facial recognition
technology. Simply register a student’s face once, and attendance can be recorded in
seconds—no manual marking, no cards, no QR codes, and no waiting in queues. The
result is a faster, more accurate, and completely seamless attendance experience for
both academies and students
