Feature Ideas

Allow players to have more than one position. For example, a goalie could also play forward.

Allow the manager to assign colors to home and away jerseys, and then display those colors on the games.

Allow users to integrate with a public BenchApp API.

Is there a way to change the Half-Time structure? The current structure of selecting 2 specific players to share 1 spot is not that functional for me over these years I do not always have 2 players dedicated for 1 position Sometimes both Half-Time players will play, but having one Half-Time sign "IN" will force the other Half-Time to only select "WAITLIST" even though the game roster has open spots available Of course the game roster must have open spots dedicated for Full-Time players and Half-Time players must be restricted and not allowed to register "IN" and take a Full Time player spot My suggested solution: Leave the current Half-Time structure as-is, asking who to "share" with another for Managers who like and follow a strict linked player pairing Add the option to allow Managers to set a player as Half-Time, but NOT forced to link with another Half-Time player Add the option to allow Managers to set the max # limit of Full-Time players and max # limit of Half-Time players for game rosters for the season This will let non-linked Half-Time players to sign "IN" until Half-Time roster spots reach max limit, while still leaving dedicated Full-Time roster spots open to all Full-Time players If a lot of Full-Time players cannot play and Half-Time players are available to play, yet exceed the max # limit setting for Half-Time game roster spots, then allow the Manager ability to override this pre-set limit since all Full-Time players has been accounted for (in this example, they cannot play), then the Manager can fill in with available Half-Time players Of course the existing overall max # limit of players for a game roster still holds top priority and is the master limit This flexibility is something I have always wanted in Benchapp and none more so than this past season as I have 10 Half Time players on my higher div team and 11 Half-Time players on lower div team. Actually, it is with my lower div team where I was not able to find another Half-Time player to share with one of my Half-Time players, which is why I would like to see the option to not force a link between 2 Half-Time players to designate each player as Half-Time status. I hope the above makes sense and I was able to present my thought process across. Thanks!

In this latest chat update, we’re only allowed to select from very few emojis and if we want more, we have to sign up for “no ads”??? It’s emjois for heaven’s sake; we’re not asking to remove ads or anything extravagant. Please don’t turn into a nickel and dime app, please!

Doesn't look like we can add videos. This would be helpful for coaching kids.

so many things going on, seems like every game people drop or accept and leave us short handed. Would be good for us to be able to plan ahead.

Good Afternoon, Just following up on this emergency contact idea, I understand this might be in the works, but I think, if you could click on your roster on a player, that each player would be able to access this information in the event of an emergency. We had an incident a couple of weeks ago and wanted see if this was possbile Kind regards

everyone would benefit from this. People are having a hard time seeing when someone has messaged in the chat.

last season I started a team but when we rolled the team to the next season (done by the other admin) we both seem to have lost admin access with the current login credentials. He tried switching account emails and got his working again but I can’t figure out how to regain my access. I sent a email requesting support but have not heard any feedback.

Can't logout, been experiencing this for several weeks now, possibly longer

When setting lines for racquet sports (i.e. Pickleball, or platform tennis) I can only choose one player for the line 1, line 2, etc. Pickleball and platform tennis are most often played with two people on a line. Creating the ability to add two players per line would be highly beneficial.

Have the option either Email or text. Currently only by email.

Notify a manager when a player was previously checked IN but then they check OUT.
