Is Coaches Dream free?
Yes — you can create a team, league, or tournament and get going for free. See the pricing page for paid plans with advanced features.
Can I use it for one team, or just whole leagues?
Both. A single coach can run one team, and a league can manage all of its teams, seasons, and tournaments from one place.
Does it work with GameChanger?
Yes. Link a team's GameChanger and Coaches Dream pulls in the schedule and final scores automatically, so you don't double-enter games.
Can parents and players see the schedule?
Yes — every linked family gets a dashboard with their player's upcoming games, tournaments, volunteer spots, and lessons.
How do I assign umpires?
Leagues and tournament directors can assign umpires per game, mark games that don't need one, and let umpires manage their own availability.
