Case Study: Clemson University Athletics Department achieves streamlined enrollment and 20-hour admin savings per bowl with Adobe Acrobat Sign

Clemson Athletics simplifies the enrollment experience for Tigers fans attending key sporting events, using Adobe Sign

Clemson University Athletics, a high-profile collegiate sports program with a passionate fan base, faced growing administrative strain managing bowl-game ticketing and enrollment for its popular Dabo Swinney football camps. Reliant on paper forms and manual data entry for hundreds to thousands of attendees, the department struggled with slow turnarounds, error-prone processes, and stretched staff time—especially when multiple postseason games occurred close together.

By deploying Adobe Sign and Acrobat Pro DC to digitize forms, automate reminders, and consolidate data into dashboards and spreadsheets, Clemson cut average form-completion time from 25 to 5 hours and saved roughly 20 administrative hours per bowl event. The change improved data accuracy, boosted staff productivity, streamlined camp registration, and created a faster, more convenient service experience for students, families, alumni, and staff.
