Born at a school tournament, built on the sidelines.

Optifit was born from a simple conversation: a PE teacher complaining about running the school tournament on Excel. Gabriel Dovat, still in compulsory school at the time, decided to build something better. The first product was straightforward — manage a tournament without a spreadsheet. But it worked.

AS Haute-Broye, for their winter junior tournaments, and the ACVF, for Graines de Foot, were among the first to trust Arena — each for their own needs. More sports associations followed — with bigger tournaments, different constraints, and above all new questions: what about team management? Attendance tracking? Equipment?

Every new request sparked a new idea, and every idea added a piece to the ecosystem we're building today. Optifit wasn't designed in a room — it was built on the sidelines, season after season.
