Example of a team community on Gametime Hero: a roster of 24 with 2 co-organizers, the next game and the team chat on one screen.

You became captain to play, not to spend Sunday night chasing people.

If your team runs on a group chat and a spreadsheet, you know every one of these.

  • RSVPs buried in group chats

    Who is in? Who is out? The answer is forty messages up, and half the team has the thread muted.

  • Dues tracked in spreadsheets

    You front the field rental, then spend the week asking the same three people to pay you back.

  • No-shows you find out about at kickoff

    Nine turn up for a game that needs ten, and nobody told you they had dropped out.

  • Recurring events you re-post every week

    Same game, same time, and you still type it out and ask for a headcount every single week.

  • Waitlists kept in your head

    When a spot opens you try to remember who asked first, then text them one at a time.

  • Subs and drop-ins with no way in

    A friend of a friend wants to fill in, and there is nowhere to send them but your phone number.

From group chat to organized in three steps

  1. Create your team

    Start a community for your team on the Free plan. No payment card is needed.

  2. Invite your roster

    Bulk-invite by email or share one join link, then add your co-captain as a co-organizer.

  3. Post your first game

    Add the date, the place and the headcount, and share the link. Everyone answers from the browser on their phone.

Everything your team runs on, in one place

Use only the parts you want. Each one works on its own, and we say which ones need Organizer Pro.

  • RSVPs with a real headcount

    Post a game or a practice and share one link. You see who is in, and guests can RSVP without an account when you allow it.

  • Recurring events

    Set the weekly game to repeat once. Your team RSVPs for each date, and you manage each date on its own. Part of Organizer Pro.

  • Waitlists

    Cap the headcount. When the game is full, people join the waitlist instead of your inbox. Part of Organizer Pro.

  • Payments at sign-up

    Connect Stripe and charge for a game, a season or dues by card, with refunds from your payment records.

  • Team chat and announcements

    Group conversations and direct messages for the whole team. Announcements and topic threads are part of Organizer Pro.

  • Help from co-captains and coaches

    Add co-organizers so someone else can run events and members. Custom roles with their own permissions are part of Organizer Pro.

Built for every kind of team

Sports or not: if the same people meet again and again, it fits.

  • Rec and pickup teams

    Weekly soccer, basketball, volleyball or pickleball. Keep the game full without the weekly headcount thread.

  • Youth teams

    Coaches post the schedule once, and parents see when and where to be.

  • Clubs with several teams

    One community with sub-groups, each with its own roster and events.

  • Activity and hobby groups

    Run clubs, hiking groups, board game nights and cycling crews use the same tools.

Built for organizers like you.

  • $1.5M+ Processed through Gametime Hero
  • 11,500+ Members & players
  • 11,000+ Registrations & RSVPs

Organizers who run on Gametime Hero

These organizers are talking about Gametime Hero as a whole, which they run their communities on.

  • “When my events stopped working on Wix, Gametime Hero had me up and running in less than 48 hours.”

  • “We used to spend more time managing tools than managing our community. Now we spend that time on what actually matters: getting women outside and building something they want to come back to.”

  • “I'm a bar owner, not a software person, and I shouldn't have to be. What's changed with Gametime Hero in such a short time is worth celebrating. They even added our Watch Me! theme song to our site. Now I spend my time on what we're building: a room where women's sports fans feel like they belong.”

  • “I believe our integration of Gametime Hero will make it significantly easier and less time-consuming for our logistics volunteers, while providing a far better experience for our players. After all… WE JUST WANT TO PLAY!”

Frequently asked questions

Do my players need an account or an app?

There is no app to install: everything runs in the browser on a phone or a computer. When you turn on guests for an event, people can RSVP without an account.

Can I add a co-captain or a coach?

Yes. Add co-organizers to share the work, and individual events can have co-hosts too. Custom roles with their own permissions are part of Organizer Pro.

Does it work if my team is not a sports team?

Yes. Run clubs, fitness classes, hiking groups, book clubs and gaming nights use it the same way. If people gather for it, it fits.

How do I move my existing group over?

There is no one-click import yet, but moving over is quick: recreate your community, bulk-invite your members by email or share a join link, and post your events. We help groups make the switch all the time.

Do I need to download an app?

No. Gametime Hero runs in the browser on a phone or a computer, and the people you invite open your link the same way. There is no mobile app to install yet; one is in the works.

Is there a contract?

No contracts. The Free plan never expires, and a paid plan can be cancelled anytime with one click, with no penalties.

Is there a money-back guarantee?

Yes. Every paid plan comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If it is not the right fit, we will refund you, no questions asked.

Can I export my data and take it with me?

Yes. Your data is always yours to export, and if you cancel we will help you export all of it first.

Built by community people, for community people

We built Gametime Hero because we needed it too.

We’ve seen the problem from both sides — as participants looking for places to belong, and as organizers doing the work to bring people together.

Your team deserves better than a group chat.
