Comments on: TeamSnap is a Really, REALLY Nice Site https://mikeindustries.com/blog/archive/2007/05/teamsnap A running commentary of occasionally interesting things — from Mike Davidson. Thu, 26 May 2016 06:34:30 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.3 By: Allen https://mikeindustries.com/blog/archive/2007/05/teamsnap#comment-76840 Thu, 24 Feb 2011 21:07:46 +0000 #comment-76840 Seriously? An outstanding site that’s incredibly useful and you’re whining about paying for what you get? I’m managing two girls’ soccer teams and the cost is less than $10 bucks a kid per year for the deluxe subscripton.

I do wonder what happened to the ideas for bulk import and leaguesnap.

They like knowing who to expect to show up at each practice and game. However, we have five teams in our women’s ice hockey club and we aren’t going to pay for each one once you start charging. We will have to look elsewhere for a free site or one that can handle a club with multiple teams.

Thanks for the free trial!

Check out other sites that give you tons of functionality for free: LeaugeLineup.com, eteamz.com, myteamcaptain.com, myteamhelper.com and actually quite a few others. I have been trying a few to setup my new hockey team.

It’s interesting though how big of a difference good design (MyTeamCaptain) and *great* design (TeamSnap) make towards first impressions of both sites. MyTeamCaptain looks like a site I could easily tolerate and make use of, but TeamSnap really makes me *want* to use the site, even though I don’t have a team to manage.

TeamSnap is a nice , well executed app, for sure. But you know what? I can’t see how it makes it easier to manage a team. Way too many fields and too much info to enter. And players need to be invited and create an account to access the team info? They’ll never do that – they barely read their emails. It might work better for the more competitive teams or the more stats oriented sports though.

But my soccer career ended some years ago, so I don’t think I will ever use this site more than to just check it out.

By the way: I really love what they have done with the testimonials ;-)

If you’re managing a soccer league, or real youth swim team (300+) it would seem a bit limited. Hand entering all that data would be a bear. I’m really interested to see what they do with the statistics section.

On another note, World RSP Society? And they have tourney’s for money? Wow…I’ve been known to throw a mean paper, I need to check this out!

I have just shared TeamSnap with the head of our little league division. It would be great to see TeamSnap offer a league level where teams can be maintained, league standings are available for each division, and there is a central point of communication for the league.
