Our Story
In the beginning, there was a vision: a world where technology and sports unite to create extraordinary experiences. SportsFirst was born out of this vision, with our founders, Nishant Shah and Arpan Desai, determined to make a lasting impact on the sports industry. With over 13 years of experience each, they set out on a journey to empower sports companies, startups, and teams worldwide by building state-of-the-art digital solutions.
Our first breakthrough came in 2013 when we developed the GamePlan iPad app for GlobalApptitude, it played a pivotal role in winning of Baltimore Ravens’s Super Bowl. The app's success catapulted us into the limelight, and soon we were featured in prominent publications like the New York Times, CBS, and the Wall Street Journal Sports. This recognition fueled our ambition, and we knew there was no turning back.
Over the years, we’ve stayed true to our mission, evolving with the industry while always keeping the needs of our clients at the forefront. We’ve honed our skills in areas such as Web & Mobile App Development, Digital Playbooks, Sports Telestration, Athlete Training & Development, and more. Our work with major sports organizations—including the NFL, NHL, MLB, NCAA, and ICC Cricket—has allowed us to deliver digital experiences that resonate with both athletes and fans alike.
​
But at SportsFirst, we believe our success is defined not just by the projects we’ve completed, but by the impact we’ve made on the sports community. We’re not just developers and consultants; we’re part of a larger movement that’s transforming the way sports are experienced around the world. Our passion for innovation drives us to continually push the boundaries, exploring new technologies like Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, and Computer Vision to create solutions that are not just cutting-edge, but also deeply meaningful.
​
Our journey, from the success of the GamePlan app to becoming a global leader in SportsTech, has been fueled by our commitment to making a difference. We’ve had the privilege of collaborating with pioneering platforms like SportsCode, Hudl, and SportsData.io, and have supported over 100 products globally. With every project, we strive to create more than just a product—we aim to build tools that empower sports organizations to reach new heights, connect with their audiences, and ultimately, change the game.
