Company profile
researched Aug 2026Bond Sports develops software for operators of sports and recreation facilities, positioning itself as a single operating system that replaces multiple point tools. The platform combines a facility-wide calendar for rentals, events and leagues (with recurring bookings, conflict checks and invoicing), 24/7 online booking of spaces, lessons and parties, class and clinic registration with household checkout, waitlists and capacity controls, league management with grouping, auto-generated schedules, standings and scoring, membership plans with automated billing and digital check-in, and point of sale for concessions, merchandise, pro shop and tips.
A reporting and analytics layer covers monthly reconciliation, revenue recognition, AR aging, revenue forecasting by GL code and program, invoices and payments, payment plans, accounting summaries and trending analysis, with location-level controls, portfolio roll-ups and scheduled report delivery. Scheduling, customer, availability and payment data share one data model so changes to an event propagate across bookings and availability. The company markets configurations for hockey, soccer, basketball, volleyball, multi-sport and baseball/softball venues, and also serves futsal, tennis, pickleball, aquatics, fitness, dance, youth sports, parks and recreation, and university customers.
Founding story
Bond Sports was started in 2020 by Matt Minoff, co-founder and CEO, and co-founder Marc Rothschild. Minoff, an athlete whose sons played in leagues and tournaments, had experienced friction in youth and adult recreational sports as both a customer and an administrator; conversations with facility owners revealed that many were stitching together four or five point solutions and repeatedly asked how quickly a usable product could be built. Rothschild attributed the technology gap to facilities historically operating as pen-and-paper "mom and pop" businesses and as landlords renting out space, until owners shifted toward running their own leagues, camps and tournaments and needed software to support that programming.
Business model
Bond Sports sells a subscription-style software platform to facility operators, bundled with integrated payment processing and point-of-sale hardware. Its investor Rally Ventures describes the company as a fit for a "SaaS+" model in which integrated products such as payments, insurance and background screening are layered onto the core software.
Software platform sold to facility operators, with embedded payments and point-of-sale transactions identified by its lead investor as an additional monetization layer alongside the core subscription product.
Traction
The company reports more than 400 facilities on the platform. Published customer outcomes include Chelsea Piers Sky Rink invoicing over $1M in a single tryout day with 80% collected that day, Socceroof reporting 89% more bookings year over year across 10 facilities, Perseverance processing more than 19,000 registrations across 8 locations, and NoLimit Sports handling 3,500+ private lessons and 2,000+ batting cage hours. In 2023 the company onboarded Black Bear Sports Group, described as the largest owner of ice rinks in the US, as an anchor tenant.
Latest developments
The company markets a weekly feature release cadence and a migration program with go-live in as fast as 21 days, and reports more than 400 facilities using the platform across hockey, soccer, basketball, volleyball, multi-sport and baseball/softball venues.

Market position
Bond Sports competes in facility management software, a segment its founders and investor describe as historically underserved and slower to modernize than the wider sports technology market, with many facilities running four or five separate point solutions or paper-based processes. Bond differentiates by targeting complex multi-sport venues and ice rinks rather than youth clubs alone, and reports more than 400 facilities on the platform.
The company positions on depth of functionality sufficient for a facility to move its entire operation onto one system rather than adding another bolt-on tool, a unified data model across scheduling, registration, payments and reporting, a fast migration process compared with multi-month legacy implementations, and a high release cadence contrasted with legacy vendors customers say went years without meaningful updates.
Technology
A cloud platform in which scheduling, rentals, registration, memberships, payments, POS and reporting share a single customer and facility data model, so moving or editing an event updates availability, customer details and payment records across the system. A back-office application (backoffice.bondsports.co) provides daily operational and portfolio-level calendar views; the company states it releases new features weekly.
Go-to-market
Direct sales through demo requests on the company website, with facility-type-specific landing pages and customer case studies. Migration from legacy systems is a central sales motion: Bond offers a managed onboarding program including data export, configuration, staff training and parallel testing with a stated go-live in as fast as 21 days (typically three to four weeks). Landing anchor tenants such as large multi-site operators is used to reach further enterprise and consolidator customers.
Owners and operators of sports and wellness facilities, including ice rinks, multi-sport complexes, soccer, basketball, volleyball and baseball/softball venues, as well as parks and recreation departments, universities, fitness, aquatics and dance programs. The company targets both independent facilities and larger consolidators and enterprise operators.
Geography
Customers cited are US facility operators, including Chelsea Piers Sky Rink and Black Bear Sports Group, the largest owner of ice rinks in the US.
