You run the team. Takaro runs the admin.
Fixtures, availability, parent messages, lineups and results — everything a team manager juggles each week, in one app the coach and parents already use. Club and school admins get the whole picture across every team.
Free for team managers your coach adds · Works on iPhone, Android and the web
Everything between "who's playing?" and "what was the score?"
The jobs that used to live in group texts, spreadsheets and the back of a programme.
Fixtures & match setup
Add matches and trainings in seconds, or import the whole season from a spreadsheet. Date, time, venue and opponent in one place.
Player availability
Parents mark who's in or out from their phone. See the count at a glance and send a reminder to anyone who hasn't replied.
Parent invites & join code
Invite families by email or share the team join code. Parents get fixtures, availability and messages without another group chat.
Team chat with notifications
One chat for coaches, managers and parents, with push notifications on iPhone and Android. New team lists post into it automatically.
Lineup emails
Email the lineup for each match to every parent, with your notes on meeting point and what to bring. You're prompted right after creating the match.
Automatic match reminders
Reminders go out before game day, so fewer late "what time is it?" messages land on you.
Scores & live scoring
Record the final score, or score live courtside. Takaro reminds you if a result is missing and keeps the season record up to date.
Player of the day & ratings
Pick a player of the day and rate how everyone played, with match notes, while the game is still fresh.
Season rollover
Carry the squad and parents into next season in a few taps. Past seasons stay viewable for the record.
Up and running before Saturday.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions
What does a team manager do in Takaro?
A team manager looks after the running of the team: fixtures, player availability, parent invites, team chat, lineup emails, match reminders and results. The coach can focus on coaching while the manager handles the admin.
Is Takaro free for team managers?
Yes. When a coach or club adds you to their team as manager, you get the team's tools at no cost. You only need your own plan if you start and coach your own team.
Can parents see fixtures and reply to availability?
Yes. Parents join with an email invite or the team join code. They see fixtures, mark their child available or unavailable, read the team chat and get lineup emails and reminders.
Does Takaro work for clubs and schools with many teams?
Yes. Club and school admins manage every team, coach and manager from one dashboard, run competitions with generated fixtures, and take online registrations into a roster pool.
Which sports does Takaro support?
Netball, football (soccer), basketball, volleyball, hockey, water polo, rugby, baseball and more, all with the same login across every team you manage.
