Behind the scenes

You ran the draft. Here's everything that ran itself.

One family's journey — Sarah and her daughter Maya — from registration to fully onboarded, with every email, reminder, deadline, and payment handled automatically. These are the real default templates that ship with every club (and every one is editable).

  1. 1

    A parent registers

    Sarah finds your public registration link, fills out one form, and pays the tryout fee — money lands in your Stripe account. She instantly gets a confirmation with a QR code for tryout day.

  2. 2

    Tryout-day check-in

    At the gym, staff scan Sarah's QR code: Maya is marked present, assigned tryout number A01, and photographed for the draft board — in about 30 seconds per athlete.

  3. 3

    The draft

    Coaches build shared watch lists, rate athletes, declare 15-minute intent locks, and send offers — all tier-aware so your top team picks clean. ← You just did this part.

  4. 4

    The offer cadence

    The moment a coach clicks Send offer, a four-step cadence arms itself. Nobody at the club follows up; the system does. And the cadence is yours to customize — set each follow-up to whatever timing fits your club (+1 day, +3 days, a week out) and write your own script for every message in the sequence.

    Maya's 16-1 offer expired — let's talk

    Hi Sarah,

    We didn't hear back in time, so Maya's offer for 16-1 has expired and the spot has been released.

    If you still want Maya on the team — or this was just a timing mix-up — reply to this email or reach out to your club director today. We may be able to help.

    If the family accepts at any point, the rest of the cadence cancels itself. If they don't, the spot releases back to your draft board automatically.

    Every template is editable; every send is logged and tracked for deliverability.

    Athlete onboarding

    The acceptance email's magic link drops Sarah into a guided checklist — waiver e-signature, USAV/AAU card upload, season balance, uniform sizing, and the parent-meeting RSVP — one step at a time, like a Stripe checkout. Directors can add as many steps as they'd like, with the customization and flexibility that works for their onboarding process.

    2 of 5 complete — 3 steps to go

    Next: Pay season balance

    1. Sign the season waiver

    2. Upload USAV/AAU membership

    Reminders, only when needed

    If onboarding tasks go a day past due, the system nudges — once per family, with a count of what's left. Directors never write the chasing email again.

    Payments on autopilot

    Deposits collect at acceptance. Season balances run as lump sum or 3/6-month installment plans with bank-linked auto-charge on due dates. Every charge sends a receipt; every failure gets retried and surfaced. Funds settle straight to the club's Stripe account.

You set up the tryout. Everything else ran itself.

Registration, check-in, the draft, offers, reminders, deadlines, payments, and onboarding — one tool, one weekend.

No card required to apply.
