Feature Ideas

Have the option to make multiple spares lists so that you can send notifications out to different lists at different times. First list being the Regular/Preferred Spares list, 2nd being the infrequent spares list, 3rd being the anyone I know that can tie a pair of skates because we're desperate for players list! I have a lot of people on my spares list, some players are very infrequent but I still want their contact info on my roster. If I could create multiple spares lists it would allow me to set my regulars to get an email on day 1 (7 days out or so), regular spares get an email 3 days out, infrequent 2 days and panic spares list on the day of if the roster isn't full.

Allow the app to keep track of who shows up for scrimmages like it does for games played. Especially usefull for when you have the same group of guys playing weekly. Also would help keep track of how many games spares played for collecting fees

Only allow spares to join until a minimum threshold of total players is reached (rather than a maximum as it works now). Context: I have 12 kids on my baseball team, and need spares if I won't have at least 9 players. I don't want to invite spares if I'll have 9+ players, and I don't want roster players to be forced to join a waitlist. It would be great if there was no limit on roster players, but spares are only auto invited/accepted if the total amount of players is less than some minimum

Add category for hockey skill level D,C3,C2,C1,B,A in player profile

these individuals were spares where you do not want to loose their contact information by deleting them but aren't active spares. This would reduce the size of the spare list when looking for subs. They would be listed last and separately like spares, goalies. They might be taking the year off or any other reason for an extended time off.

i have multiple teams I play with and get invites from, some set me up with my work e-mail some with my personal e-mail…..it would be good to join the accounts….also for notifications, I also have two cell phones!

No features for 2 teams leagues where teams players change everygame It would be nice a hybrid game between "scrimmage" and "game" because : "scrimmage" don't allow you to customize the scoreboard (add players that scored) "game" don't allow you to edit lines for the 2 teams (required if you have a 22 players hockey league, and you change the teams every week).

Please add a native Team Fee Calculator that lets managers enter a season’s total team fee and number of games, then automatically distribute costs across Full-Time and Part-Time players. The goal is to replace ad-hoc spreadsheets with a simple, built-in tool that ensures the roster’s total always equals the team fee while making “what-if” adjustments fast and error-free. Core controls: a single Team Fee and Number of Games drive all math, plus two linked price-per-game fields—one for Full-Time and one for Part-Time. Editing either price automatically rebalances the other so the overall total remains exact. This preserves budget integrity while giving captains flexibility to tune one side (e.g., lower FT price-per-game to encourage that) without manual calculations. The roster appears in a live table with Name, Commitment (FT/PT), and a read-only calculated Player Fee. Fees update instantly when managers change commitments, add/remove players, or adjust prices. The calculator treats PT players as paying for half the season by default (floor of games/2), with a clear total row that warns if the sum of player fees ever drifts from the team fee. Suggested workflow: set Team Fee and Games, tag each player FT or PT, adjust either price per game, review the per-player breakdown, and then lock it as the season’s billing plan. From there, BenchApp can generate invoices or payment links from the calculated amounts and (optionally) send payment reminders. This keeps budgeting, communication, and collections all in one place. Faster setup, fewer errors, and clearer expectations for everyone. Example: https://claude.ai/public/artifacts/9bd4b1e6-f3df-4bbd-83f0-d79c9ca2a973

In my groups, we have the same 22 players and we switch the teams around after a series. Should configure sizes of the lineups screen to match the size of the group. Also, what purpose does the toggle goalie serve? Could eliminate it, IMO

My team captain set up this year's schedule under a new season. There's a link on my home screen to access the new season but no matter how many times I click on it, nothing happens.

Someone keeps phishing. Look at this convo. Same person.

It would be beneficial to have sub classes for both Roster and Spare players. The existing classes of Holiday, Injured and Suspended should be changed to sub classes for Roster and Spare players. The problem is if a manager needs to mark a Spare as Injured, Holiday, or Suspended they get moved to the Roster List which does not accurately reflect the class of player. If a Spare player is marked as injured they should stay in the Spare List but have the injured icon next to their name. This could be implemented like the Staff Class where there is a sub class that allows a manager to select the Staff Position.

If our team has 14 players and we only need 10 to field a team, I would prefer to only auto-invite subs if we have less than 10 players checked in the day before the game. All paid/rostered players are always welcome though. Maximum players is a useful feature for managing spares and the waitlist (when max is reached, players can join the waitlist), but if we set it to 10 then some rostered players will be told they are on the waitlist when they RSVP yes. Can there be a checkbox when setting max players to make rostered (paid) players exempt from the max? A different request but same end goal as this: https://feedback.benchapp.com/b/3v2rr8mn/feature-ideas/only-allow-spares-to-join-up-to-a-minimum-of-total-players

I know in pro you can specify which colour you use for each team but i don't have that at the moment, and 3 out of 4 teams display on the calendar as the same colour. Not sure how to fix that
