Roster players and guest members: people on your squad who are not on the app yet

In grassroots sports, effective communication and management are essential for success. With Get The Game On, clubs can streamline their operations, even when it comes to roster players and guest members who are not yet on the app. Understanding how to incorporate these individuals into your squad can enhance team cohesion and performance.

Understanding Roster Players

Roster players are individuals added to your club's squad list by managers, even if they haven't signed up for the app yet. This feature is particularly useful for clubs looking to maintain an inclusive environment where everyone can participate, regardless of their current app status. Managers can later link these roster players to their accounts once they join, ensuring seamless integration.

By utilizing roster players, clubs can keep track of all potential participants for fixtures and events. This means that when a player eventually signs up, their previous involvement is recognized, making it easier to manage team selections and availability. It also fosters a sense of belonging, encouraging guests to become full-time members.

Child and guest profiles (parents)

That is a different feature from roster players. Parents add child or guest profiles under their own account so they can mark availability, see selection, and pay for that person. The child does not need a separate login. Roster players are manager-added names with no account yet; parent guest/child profiles already have a paying adult attached.

When a parent marks a child available, managers see it in selection the same way as any other player. Use roster for people who have not downloaded the app; use parent profiles for juniors and guests a parent is responsible for.

Managing Availability and Communication

With Get The Game On, you can efficiently manage availability for both roster players and guest members. The app allows users to mark their availability for fixtures and training sessions with a simple tap, eliminating the confusion that often accompanies traditional communication methods. Managers can send reminders to those who haven't responded, ensuring everyone is kept in the loop.

Furthermore, the app's team chat feature enables real-time communication among squad members. This is particularly beneficial for coordinating last-minute changes or updates related to fixtures. By fostering open lines of communication, clubs can create a more cohesive team environment where everyone feels involved.

Streamlining Payments for All Members

Managing payments for roster players and guest members is another key feature of Get The Game On. Managers can send payment requests for match fees, training fees, and memberships directly through the app, making it easier for everyone to keep track of their financial commitments. This is particularly useful for clubs with varying payment needs across their members.

The app's 2.49% + 20p card processing fees ensure that clubs can collect payments without incurring significant costs. This affordability encourages more players to participate, whether they are roster players or guests. Plus, the ability to pay via Apple Pay or Google Pay adds convenience for members who prefer digital transactions.

Encouraging Engagement and Future Sign-Ups

Ultimately, the inclusion of roster players and guest members is about fostering engagement within your club. By allowing these individuals to participate actively, you create a welcoming atmosphere that encourages them to transition into full-time members. The more involved they feel, the more likely they are to commit to the club.

Incorporating features like availability tracking, communication tools, and streamlined payment options ensures that your club remains attractive to new participants. With Get The Game On, you have the tools to manage these relationships effectively, paving the way for a vibrant and active sports community.
