  3. 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. 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.

  10. Spare improvements: Are you available?

    I have three classes of players (adult/beer league): Full-time: Rostered guys who paid for the whole season Regular subs (part-time): My go-to subs. They a play a lot but couldn't commit to the whole season. Hail-Mary subs: I rarely use these subs. I only reach out to them if I'm desperate and already burned through 1 & 2. What I would really like is to be able to have BenchApp automatically send emails/texts to my #2 group to get their status. Not so much "you are invited" but more "can you make it, if needed?" If these subs are available, they should go to the waitlist. Then on gameday, I'll have their status ready and I can just put them in if I have spots. I don't want to bug my #3 group via anything automatic, I'll just continue to reach out to them manually (if needed).

    The ability to have BA on a split screen with iPads would make it handy when having to work simutaneously with excel or other programs with our BA data in view.

  15. Broadcast emails should include team+league name

    Many of our players play in multiple leagues and teams. When I send a broadcast email, it doesn't by default include the league or team name. It would be nice if this were included somewhere by default so people aren't confused which team they're being contacted about.
