Walk into most neighbourhood sports academies across India at 4:30 PM and you will see great coaching on the ground — followed by two hours of manual paperwork: paper attendance registers, UPI screenshots scrolling away in WhatsApp groups, and tournament draws written on chart paper.

KIBI Sports is a sports business from India with two legs: sports equipment from 257+ brand partners sold through our own ecommerce and international B2B exports, and a sports platform used by athletes, academies and institutions.

Four Workflows Academies Digitise First on KIBI

  1. Permanent Trainee Passports (/institutions & /athletes): Institutional memory stays with the academy even when coaching staff rotate.
  2. KIBI Matchday on WhatsApp (/matchday & play.kibisports.com): Automated fixture alerts, slot confirmations, and parent updates without installing a new chat app (WhatsApp +91 80502 97151).
  3. Paperless Weekend Tournaments (/events & /live): Online entries, seeded brackets, live scoring, and automatic digital certificates.
  4. Wholesale Consumable Supply (shop.kibisports.com/pages/sports-academies-and-clubs): Direct B2B GST invoicing across 257+ brand partners (WhatsApp +91 76194 08001).

Frequently asked questions

When a coach changes jobs or a notebook is misplaced, years of trainee attendance, tournament results, and fee records disappear — leaving parents without receipts and athletes without verifiable competition records.

KIBI Sports' institutional tournament and academy portal (https://www.kibisports.com/institutions) is free during the Founding-Partner season until 31 March 2027 (https://www.kibisports.com/pricing).
