Events Managed
Purpose-built tools for sports event managers, designed to streamline every part of your workflow.
Track every team, organization, event, and sponsor in one place. Manage contacts, branding, and relationships across your whole book of business.
Move sponsorship, uniform, and merch projects through a visual pipeline. See pipeline value at a glance and never let an opportunity go cold.
Plan a whole season on kanban boards, then see it on a timeline — a Gantt of all projects on the board, and of the tasks within each project, with start and due dates.
Budgets that actually calculate. Multi-factor lines (refs = games × officials × rate), driver-based what-ifs — change attendance and watch the P&L reflow — % contingencies, and ready-made templates. Track actuals against the estimate with live variance, then roll them into next year's budget.
Schedule the people who make events run — referees, volunteers, trainers, plus equipment and fields. Track volunteer hours for grant reporting and get SafeSport / background-check expiry alerts before someone lapses.
Manage your uniform and fan-merch catalog, track who you sell to, and keep supplier wholesale pricing organized.
Brand communications separately for each team, organization, or event so every touchpoint looks the part.
Understand your season at a glance — open projects, pipeline value, and tasks due — so you can make data-driven decisions every day.
The tools that turn "we're planning an event" into a plan you can see.

Build event and season budgets from real formulas, not static cells. Pick a calculation type per line, set your assumptions once, and watch the P&L reflow — then track what really happened against it.
Switch any board from kanban to a timeline. See every project as a bar, then drill into a project to see its tasks — with start and due dates and a today line.
