Switch to Team Scout / From Band

Everything your team uses Band for, without the ads.

Team Scout's group, calendar, roster and volunteer sign-ups are free, and there are no ads at all. A person joins only from the program's link and signs in with a texted code.

What moves over

  • The people. Families join from a link posted in the Band.
  • The schedule. It comes in from the printed schedule, or it is typed once.
  • Band holds no money or registration data, so there is nothing financial to move.

Nobody has to move mid-season. Your old tool keeps running as long as you keep paying for it, so it stays the safety net while families settle in.

What your families see in week one

No ads and no strangers, because only people with the program's link get in. Each team is its own group, so a parent with three kids sees three groups, not one noisy feed.

  1. Day 1

    Create the organization and one group per team.

  2. Day 2

    Post the join link in the Band.

  3. Days 3 to 6

    Post in Team Scout only and link to it from the Band.

  4. Day 7

    Close the Band to new posts.

What it costs

Every price, printed

The group, the calendar, the roster and volunteer sign-ups are free. When the program collects fees, sells gate tickets or raises money, that happens in the same app.

Team$39 a month
Registration with payment plans, invoices, sponsorships. Plus 3.9% of what you collect.
Club$105 a month

Card processing is passed through at cost. Tickets cost the buyer $1 up to $10, then $1 plus 4%. Donations are free to the program, with an optional tip from the donor.

The migration offer

We do the move with you

Send us your export. We move your forms, rosters and history into Team Scout, check every family against it, and hand you an organization that is ready for next season.

We took one Kansas City program's five years of SportsEngine exports, 82 files, and loaded all of it, 847 payouts and 1,455 payments, into one reference database in a single evening.

  • Free on an annual Club plan.
  • Otherwise a flat fee. Ask for a quote on the call.

We verify every family and every open balance before cutover. If a figure does not tie, we do not cut over.
