What's new

Every improvement to AthleticOps, from new features to the small details that make your day easier.

v1.15.0Latest

Your Team Has a Voice.

Create polls to check availability, vote on practice times, or settle the jersey debate once and for all. Plus, AthleticOps is now on Android, and the whole app feels faster and more polished.

New

  • Team polls — Ask your team anything — availability checks, schedule preferences, uniform votes. Create a poll from the chat or the web dashboard, set a deadline, and watch responses roll in. Results update in real time so you can make decisions faster.
  • Anonymous polls — When you want honest feedback without names attached, flip on anonymous mode. Voters see aggregate counts but not who voted for what.
  • AI-powered poll suggestions — When creating a scheduling poll, AthleticOps suggests time slots based on your existing calendar — so you start with options that actually work.
  • Android appApp — AthleticOps is now available on the Google Play Store. Android users get the same experience — team chat, schedules, attendance, and polls — with platform-native touches throughout.
  • Pending venue reservationsApp — See venue reservations waiting for approval right on your schedule, and tap through to view the details — no need to check the web dashboard.
  • Score entry reminders — After a game ends, coaches receive an automatic reminder to enter the final score — so your record stays up to date without extra effort.

Improved

  • Faster message deliveryApp — When a notification arrives, the app pre-loads the latest messages in the background — so conversations are ready the moment you open them.
  • Cancelled events on the public site — Cancelled games now show with strikethrough styling and a clear badge on your public team page, and they no longer count toward your win-loss record.
  • Redesigned event detailsApp — Event screens are cleaner and more responsive, with attendance, directions, and game details organized into focused sections.
  • Smarter attendance reminders — Games that already send a game-day prep email no longer also send a separate attendance reminder — fewer emails, same coverage.

Fixed

  • Attendance visibility for adminsApp — System administrators can now see attendance on every event, not just events for their own teams.
  • Team manual accessApp — PDFs and documents in the team manual now open directly in the app, and administrators can access files for any team.
  • Tab labels on iOSApp — Navigation tab labels no longer shift out of alignment after switching away from the app and back.
  • Player claim notifications — When a parent claims a player, the notification now correctly shows who made the request.
v1.14.0

Build a living team manual with documents, guides, and important files — accessible to every player and parent, on any device. Plus, smarter calendar sync, granular notification controls, and a Liquid Glass design refresh.

New

Upload documents or write pages directly. Coaches control what's published; players and parents always have the latest version on web and mobile.

  • Smarter AI recommendations — Schedule suggestions are automatically cleared when their event is cancelled, so your recommendation list stays focused on what's relevant.
  • Clearer error messages — When something goes wrong, you now see a helpful message instead of a generic error — making it easier to understand what happened and what to do next.
  • Stronger data protection — Behind-the-scenes security improvements keep your team's information safer — especially when coaches and parents belong to multiple organizations.
