Team Manager FAQs

Common questions from team managers.

Getting Started

What training do I need?

  • Watch the orientation video and presentation
  • Complete background check
  • Complete Safe Haven training (20 minutes online)
  • Review team manager task documentation

See Manager Training for the full process.

What is the time commitment?

A few hours per week during the season for communication, coordination, and game-day logistics. The workload varies based on how much you delegate to other parents.

Spond is recommended if the coach does not have a preference. Other options include team email, text groups, or similar apps.
