Mon–Fri
Coaches show up
Teddy texts each coach their shifts and a GPS check-in link. Hours, practices, and games log as the week runs.
Tourney Direct already runs the back office for tournaments. For clubs, it runs the recurring version: standing practices and games, hourly or flat pay, travel reimbursements, and the compliance in between. Teddy, your AI-powered, text-based assistant, keeps every hour and reimbursement straight all week, then hands you an entire pay period to approve with a single text, so nothing slips and every coach gets paid on time.
Tap a reply to steer a real conversation. Switch between the two people who text Teddy every week at a club.
A tournament gets approved once and it's done. A club runs the same shifts week after week, so the thing that has to be effortless is approving a pay period.
At the end of each cycle, Teddy totals every logged hour and reimbursement, by coach and by team, and asks for a single yes. Approve, and direct deposits go out and every coach gets a confirmation. That per-cycle approval is the whole pivot from an events tool to a club tool.
Year-round or seasonal programs across all your teams. Recurring practices and games, like MWF 5–7pm, hang off the program, not a single event.
Coaches check in and out by text with GPS. Hours build across the whole pay cycle, with easy corrections.
Hourly or flat fee, paid out weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly. Approve the entire period in one step instead of practice by practice or game by game.
Gas, hotels, and meals captured by text with a receipt photo, or issued as a travel voucher up front. Kept separate from wages and approved on their own.
SafeSport, background checks, coaching licenses, and CPR on file, with reminders before any of them lapse. On the roadmap.
Schedule, hours, pay history, expenses, and credentials in one place for coaches who want more than texts.
Pay contractors or run full payroll. Our intake helps you think through the scope for your setup, and Tourney Direct generates the right year-end forms.
Rehire last season's staff, pause and resume teams, and onboard new coaches in waves without starting over.
Answers coaches, flags missing check-ins and no-shows, and prompts you to approve pay every cycle.
Set it up once and add your staff. After that, most weeks Teddy does the executing and you do the approving.
Teddy texts each coach their shifts and a GPS check-in link. Hours, practices, and games log as the week runs.
A coach snaps a gas or hotel receipt and texts the amount. It's logged against the cycle, separate from wages.
Teddy totals the cycle by coach and team and asks for one yes. Direct deposits go out.
Paying gig staff for a weekend tournament and running recurring club payroll are not the same job. Tourney Direct handles each on its own terms, so you pick the model that matches how you actually operate, or run both side by side.
Answer a few quick questions about how your program runs, and we'll help you think through the right setup, contractor payouts or full payroll, with the compliance pieces flagged for you.
