The GolfTracker Team
     
 

Two Founders - Ken Rivera & Jay Casper (Plus New Friends - Below)

The most important thing to know about our company is this: we’re lifelong friends who have spent more than 25 years on the slopes and greens together. Prior to the creation of Sport Stats, Inc., Ken Rivera was a high-level sales and marketing executive who had been employed by the largest industrial, specialty and medical gas companies in the world. Ken Rivera's ability to combine his grasp of the technical with his proven leadership abilities made him one of the most sought-after professionals in his field.

Ken Rivera's long-time friend and inventor of SlopeTracker, Jay Casper, first became fascinated with GPS technology when he was a Naval aviator. Since leaving the service, he has been marketing director for several high-profile companies, including Qwest, before following his passion and realizing his vision with the development of SlopeTracker.

By assembling a group of associates with expertise in technology and service, Ken Rivera and Jay Casper are, frankly, riding their lifelong dream: sharing the joy, the thrill, and the sense of fun that comes from spending their days building something they love on mountains and links.

Other facts:

Sport Stats’ core business is to design, develop, and exploit GPS technology.
