OUR STORY

PinTV was conceptualized by Noah Glenn, a high-school wrestling coach who identified the need for a mat-side scoring system. Originating as an idea to provide an alternative to flip scoreboards, PinTV aimed to offer spectators in the stands essential information about mat-side wrestling action, including details about the wrestlers, time remaining, real-time scores, and more.

After conducting demos of PinTV at several wrestling meets, the concept gained significant traction. It swiftly evolved into a sought-after feature at various sporting events, transcending its initial use in wrestling to find applications in volleyball, basketball, tennis, and beyond. The success of PinTV wasn't limited to the realm of intramural sports; it expanded its reach into diverse areas, including business, entertainment, and beyond, becoming a versatile and in-demand solution.
