Tournament weekends, organized

One link for parents. One source of truth for the tournament.

Add the tournament before the bracket publishes. Hold your coach's calendar for the dates. Drop in the hotel block, the parent itinerary, and the pre-tournament checklist. When game times are set, add them — or let your team-app calendar fill them in — and the date hold gives way to the real schedule.

// the problem

Tournament weekends are 80% logistics, 20% soccer.

Hotel block link in one email. Parent itinerary on a Google doc. Coach checklist in a notes app. Bracket times finally published at 9pm Friday. The team manager spends the entire week before the tournament copy-pasting between five surfaces, and parents still text you at 7am Saturday asking where Field 4 is.

  • Hotel block expires before the bracket publishes — parents need the link weeks before game times exist.
  • Coach asks for the rules / check-in / field maps the night before. Every tournament. Every time.
  • When the bracket changes (and it always changes), it's another round of emails to all the parents.
// how ScheduleFC handles it

A single public page parents bookmark once.

Every tournament gets a public hub at a memorable URL. Parents open it once — no account, no app download. Update the hotel block, add game times when the bracket lands, change an event, and the public page reflects it.

  • Hold the coach's calendar for the tournament dates before the bracket exists
  • Pre-tournament coach checklist — 5 default items, fully editable per tournament
  • Add game times when the bracket publishes, or pull them from your team-app calendar
  • Public parent itinerary with hotel block, signups, costs, and travel notes
  • Tournament-game times preserve the host timezone (5:20 PM MST stays 5:20 PM)
// in practice

Three moments where it pays off

Hotel block expires in 10 days

You add the tournament to the schedule the day acceptance letters arrive. The public hub goes live, the hotel link is on it, and you share one URL with every family. Hotel block fills before it expires.

Bracket publishes Friday at 9pm

Add the game times to the tournament — or, if your team app already lists them, let your connected calendar fill them in. The date hold disappears and the parent page shows the real schedule, host timezone preserved.

Coach asks for rules + check-in info Friday morning

The Coach Checklist tab seeded those exact items when you created the tournament. You filled them in over the previous week. Send the coach the public link; he'll have everything before he packs.

Questions before you start

Do I need anything special to use the tournament hub?
No. The date hold, parent itinerary, hotel block, coach checklist, and signups all work from manual entry. Game times can be typed in directly, or they'll appear automatically once they show up on the team-app calendar you've connected to the team.
Can parents subscribe to the tournament calendar?
The tournament hub is a public web page (no account required) — most parents bookmark it or share the link via text. For iPhone Calendar / Google Calendar subscription, the team's main public schedule already includes tournament games once they're added.
What's the coach checklist for?
Five default items get seeded when you first open the checklist tab: tournament rules, check-in process, game lengths, field locations, and roster/lineup. You can edit, add, or delete items. Each has a checkbox so you can track what you've sent the coach. Team managers and admins both have access (not admin-only).
What if the bracket changes after I've added game times?
Edit the games, or let your connected team-app calendar update them on the next sync. The public hub reflects the change as soon as it lands.
