Team Texting
Text Alerts for Youth Sports Teams and Leagues
Rain-outs, field changes, and practice reminders sent to every parent at once from a number they recognize. No app to install, and parent replies go only to the coach.
Members recognize the sender
A dedicated group number makes a text feel official without exposing a leader personal cell phone.
Replies stay useful
RSVPs, questions, and service responses route privately to leaders instead of buzzing the whole group.
Costs are visible
Leaders can review message cost, recipients, and channel behavior before a send goes out.
Why it matters
Built for member care, not marketing blasts
Reaching the people you serve is personal. The tool should help leaders coordinate without turning announcements, requests, and replies into another noisy channel.
A team number, not your cell
Coaches keep their personal number private. Parents text the team number; only the coach sees it.
One league, many teams, one fee
Each team is a group. Add a number per team or share one league-wide. $7/month covers the league.
Parents opt in, and can opt out
Parents join by texting a keyword or accepting an invite, and can reply STOP at any time to opt out. Opt-ins and opt-outs are recorded, so your list stays clean and your texting stays respectful and compliant.
Prepaid pricing
Prepaid, no contracts. A $7 monthly platform fee covers your whole organization no matter how many groups, plus a small monthly fee per dedicated number and low per-message rates. Add credits, spend as you send, and always see what’s left.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
- Do parents need an app?
- No. Parents receive normal text messages on any phone — there is no app to download and nothing to log into. Only coaches and league staff use the Connect Saints web app to send messages.
- Can parents reply-all?
- No. When a parent replies, their response goes privately to the coach or team leader. Parents never see each other’s replies or each other’s phone numbers, so a field change does not turn into a 30-message thread.
- Can the league office message all teams at once?
- Yes. Each team is a group under the same organization, so the league office can send to one team, a division, or every team at once — and each team’s coach still handles that team’s own replies.
- What does it cost per season?
- Prepaid, no contracts. A $7 monthly platform fee covers your whole organization no matter how many groups, plus a small monthly fee per dedicated number and low per-message rates. Add credits, spend as you send, and always see what’s left.
