High school basketball coaches face a consistent challenge: how to get professional-level analytics without blowing a tight budget. While other platforms can cost thousands of dollars, MaxPreps Advantage delivers comprehensive basketball analytics for just $600 per season per team, using the cameras schools already have.
In our most recent webinar, we detailed how schools on the NFHS Network can receive detailed stat breakdowns, shot charts, and film analysis tools with the cameras that are already streaming their games.
Here's a breakdown of what the platform delivers and how coaches are using it to save hours every week.

Automatic Stat and Breakdowns Ready Within 12 Hours
MaxPreps Advantage automatically analyzes game footage, delivering complete team breakdowns before coaches wake up the next day. These stats for coaches are available within 10 to 12 hours, whether from NFHS Network footage that loads automatically or video that’s manually uploaded.
Breakdowns include everything from basic statistics to advanced metrics. Certain stats link directly to video, so coaches don’t have to scroll and click for hours after a game to find a specific play. For coaches managing multiple responsibilities, this saves hours each week and gives time back to develop players.
Shot Charts and Visual Tools That Reveal Patterns
Shot charts provide coaches with visualization options to illustrate trends and identify areas where adjustments can be made. The advanced editor also provides a comprehensive view of game footage, allowing coaches to filter for different plays as needed.
How Coaches Use Film to Create Player Accountability
After identifying key moments, coaches can illustrate on clips with drawing tools, arrows, and text to highlight particular areas. This is great for showing players exactly what needs to be improved.
The system tracks whether athletes have watched their assigned film, creating built-in accountability. Coaches can see who has watched and who needs a reminder, making film study a crucial part of player development.
How MaxPreps Advantage Fits Your School's Setup
Every school on the NFHS Network gets the All-Access plan at no cost, which includes unlimited storage for game film and self-editing tools. For the full experience and advanced features, schools can add MaxPreps Advantage for $600 per team per season.
Games from the NFHS Network load automatically, but coaches can also upload video from any device for tournaments or games played at other venues. The same stat turnaround and features apply.
Schools that stream on the NFHS Network get the All-Access plan automatically — if your school isn't streaming yet, see how it works.
Film exchange with opposing coaches utilizes link sharing, allowing schools to control what they share and for how long. This addresses one of the regular needs basketball coaches face throughout the season.
How $600 in Basketball Analytics Frees Up Your Budget
Schools can get set up quickly, with full access available within two to three days from signup. PlayOn provides a coach's resource guide to help teams get started.
For athletic directors managing multiple teams, every dollar saved on analytics tools stays in the program. That money becomes available for equipment, travel, or other needs that directly impact student-athletes. This is budget freedom that strengthens programs rather than straining them.
Most comparable analytics platforms for high school programs run thousands of dollars per season. At $600, MaxPreps Advantage costs less than a single away-game charter bus and the data it generates stays useful all season.
For ADs looking to offset costs further, digital ticketing through GoFan generates revenue for your program.
Get Started with MaxPreps Advantage
MaxPreps Advantage is part of the PlayOn athletics suite, which schools on the NFHS Network never pay for at the base level. The $600 per team investment in advanced basketball analytics is significantly lower than the cost of other coaching tools, while working within the streaming and ticketing ecosystem that schools already use.
