  4. Allow team colors on calendar view

    I have theee teams on BenchApp and two are black on the calendar, one is randomly blue. I cannnot easily distinguish which team is which and have to click into every event. Is there a way for team captains to set a different color for each team in calendar view? Doesn’t have to be custom colors, just a simple selection like you allow for home/away colors

  5. Set Calendar Event "Not Attending" if Event is Marked as "Out" in BA

    Would be great if the calendar subscription updated based on the user's attendance to an event. IE if a user has checked "Out" then the corresponding calendar event should have them set as "Not Attending"

  9. Tag team members in a chat message

    Chatter can get cluttered - adding the ability to tag a specific player or players in a message would help it stand out. GroupMe bolds any message you are tagged in which is really nice. Big bonus if you have a way to mute chatter notifications with an option to receive them only when directly tagged. Would be a great way to work around that one person every team has who refuses to read the threads.

  14. Link to USA Hockey Reg Database to confirm USA Hockey Reg #

    It would be neat to automatically pull in USA hockey registration numbers for the team. Lookup based on email or phone number / state or whatever. I think this would also save commissioners a ton of time in checking each player. Imagine they would pay a little bit for that time savings. It's only a once or twice a year deal, but annoying to do.
