Ridgeline High School, part of the Utah’s Cache County School District, struggled with various productivity and efficiency challenges. Coaches were spending countless hours managing registration paperwork and communicating with parents about payment status, preventing them from spending ample time with their student athletes.
With the school’s main administrative office managing the payment and registration process, there was a lack of transparency. Coaches and the athletic administration did not know the status of athlete payment or the available funds each team had to spend.
THEIR CHALLENGE
Ridgeline High School implemented Aktivate, across all sports teams and school activities. In doing so, coaches and activity leaders became far more self-sufficient and productive.
By implementing Aktivate's best practices, Ridgeline doubled the rate of online payments and now annually processes 97% of payments online. This led to a 116% increase in overall payments from $100,000 to $216,000. The payment per athlete also increased from 70% to $160 per athlete.
Leveraging another Aktivate best practice, Ridgeline elected to include all credit card processing fee into the overall fee, providing parents and athletes with a clear view of total registration fees from the outset.
OUR SOLUTION
What their AD has to say…
“One of my main goals as an athletic director is to help our Head Coaches with their administrative duties so they can commit more time to their athletes and coaching. Aktivate has freed them up from the time consuming task of fee collection. It’s been a great asset to all of us!”
- Mike Hansen, Athletic Director
