How An App Called Shnarped Aims To Be The Instagram For Sports

Founded in 2015 by a trio of ex-professional hockey players, Shnarped is a social media platform dedicated for capturing and sharing sports moments. With many extensive video-editing tools and a community filled with sports fans, Shnarped offers a place where fans of every sport can gather and simply enjoy amazing features of human athleticism.

“We set out to create a sports platform that was inspiring, youth-friendly, and connected players and fans in a meaningful way” explained Dustin Sproat, Co-founder and CEO at Shnarped. “We used news and stats as a way to initiate easy communications with athletes, and decided to start in hockey before expanding the model across other sports”.
