  3. Game sheet for scrimmages

    hi, we are a 22 player organization. Mix and match players for a scrimmage every week. Would it be possible to add scrimmage score sheets just like you have for regular games?

  4. Please allow the number 0 or 00 as a Jersey Numbers

    Some people have jersey number 0 or 00, but the app won’t accept that as a number. So it appears that they have no jersey number at all.

  5. Allow player payment through no-fee software like Venmo, PayPal, or Zelle.

    When payment is accepted through the app the fees can add up fast. For our weekly pick up game of just 10 players we pay $14.70 in fees a week. When you add in the $9/month for pro that comes to $67.80 a month. There should be a way for players to pay using the numerous no-fee payment services out there like Venmo, PayPal, or Zelle.

  7. Multiple Spares Lists

    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.

  8. Allow managers to set lines without showing players

    Currently if I update lines to try to figure out who I want to play a game, all the players can see this. I want to be able to plan lines before making them viable to the team. Even before publishing lines, everyone can see the work in progress

  9. Add a playoff bracket!

    I love this app, it’s been really cool using it for our league. It would be sweet if we could visualize the playoff bracket and update the series score for each matchup.

  13. Add an INACTIVE player class option

    As a manager I need the ability to change a Roster or Spare player to an "Inactive" state or class. I don't want to remove them from my team since they may be taking a season off or be out with a long term injury but will eventually be coming back to play. The Inactive class should not send any automatic notifications to the individual and not allow them to check in or out. I tried using the Injured, Holiday and Suspended options for Spares but that converts them to full time players and increases my roster count. I need to keep a limit on the number of available players and having these inactive players in the roster could present problems if one of them decides to check in for a game. And I believe these inactive players would also receive any Broadcast messages if I send a message to all Roster players. Any Inactive players should be listed within the "Inactive" class for Broadcast and Player lists. When a player is ready to come back to the team I would need to change their class to Roster or Spare.
