ABOUT US

At VarCity, we believe that the heart of an athlete extends far beyond the final whistle. We are a transformative platform dedicated to empowering athletes. Our goal is to equip them with the resources, learning, and mentorship they need to excel not just on the field, but in life. We understand the unique journey of an athlete – the dedication, discipline, triumphs, and the inevitable transition into a life outside of sports. Our mission is to bridge the gap between the sports community and the sports industry by providing essential skill building, knowledge, resources, and confidence to thrive in every chapter before and after sports.

 

VarCity is building a comprehensive ecosystem designed specifically for you. Integrating crucial elements  such as academic guidance, career readiness, and life skills development. VarCity will offer a dynamic range of programs and impactful workshops focused on key areas like personal branding, navigating sports transitions, financial literacy. VarCity offers personalized mentorships connecting you with experienced individuals who understand the athlete’s journey. Included are custom learning modules addressing mental health awareness, professional networking, and more – all designed  to fit the athlete’s busy schedule.

 

We recognize the demands on athletes are immense and extend far beyond the playing field. High school and collegiate athletes face unique pressures as they consider their future after sports. VarCity is here to address this critical need, providing structured support that acknowledges and tackles these challenges head-on. VarCity is more than just a platform; it’s your partner in building a successful future. We are actively establishing partnerships with educational institutions, athletic programs, and community organizations to broaden our reach and impact.

OUR STORY

Our story begins in 2017, when VarCity was founded with a bold vision to empower student-athletes and foster communities through innovative technology. That same year, we showcased our potential by participating in the Pitch Black competition in Portland, Oregon, highlighting our commitment to representing Black and Latinx entrepreneurs.

In April 2018, we gained momentum by joining the Portland Incubator Experiment (PIE), providing us with valuable resources, community and mentorship. We continued to elevate our global presence at major industry events, including the Techfest Northwest Conference in June, the Hashtag Sports Conference in October, and the Web Summit Alpha Startup Competition in March.

By 2019, we had developed our MVP beta “JV”, laying the foundation for our platform’s core features. The following year, in January 2020, we launched MVP Beta, marking a significant milestone in our journey. In 2021, we expanded our product with the MVP 2nd Beta Launch in July, refining our offerings and increasing our impact. The momentum continued into 2022 with the MVP 3rd Beta Launch in January, followed by the MVP 3.5 Beta in July, bringing us closer to full readiness.

In November 2023, we celebrated a major milestone with the MVP 4th Beta Launch, further perfecting our platform. The journey didn’t stop there—by January 2024, we introduced MVP 4.5 Beta, and in March 2025, we proudly participated in the Brother 2 Brother (B2B) Athletic event, highlighting our commitment to community and athlete education and access to resources. Most recently, in March 2025, we achieved a significant milestone with our MVP 5 Beta Launch, bringing us closer to realizing our mission: to build a dynamic, inclusive space for student-athletes to connect, compete, and thrive.

From our humble beginnings at the Pitch Black competition to becoming a recognized name in sports and tech innovation, VarCity’s story is one of perseverance, community, and relentless pursuit of excellence.
