The Problem
RUNNING YOUR PROGRAM
SHOULDN'T FEEL LIKE THIS
Spreadsheets That Break
“It's 2026 and we're managing $50k in equipment on Google Sheets.”
Manual tracking leads to errors, lost data, and hours wasted reconciling inventories that should be automatic.
Tracking Down Kids for Gear
“The locker room at the start of season is pure chaos.”
Coaches spend hours chasing players for missing equipment instead of doing what they were hired to do — coach.
No Idea Where Gear Went
“We ordered 40 helmets. I can find 31 of them.”
Without a system, equipment vanishes. That's $3,000–$10,000 in losses every single season.

“Sideline HQ has been a game changer for our program. It has made inventory management, organization, and equipment distribution incredibly efficient while giving us total visibility and control. What used to take hours is now simple, organized, and seamless.”
Christian Peterson

“Equipment day used to take 2-3 minutes per kid. With Sideline HQ, we’re in and out in 30 seconds. And when a player tells me he never got his guardian cap, I pull it up on my phone in five seconds — that’s the kind of accountability we never had before.”

Sideline HQ is $800/year for your first sport, $400 for a second sport, and $400 for a third. After that, additional sports are free — the maximum you'll ever pay is $1,600/year. That covers unlimited equipment, unlimited users, and full access to all features.
Spreadsheets break. They don't sync in real time, they can't track who checked out what (and when), they don't work on your phone at practice, and they require manual entry for everything. Sideline HQ automates the entire workflow — check-in, check-out, assignments, reporting — with a system built specifically for how equipment rooms actually work.
Absolutely. There's no per-user fee. Your entire coaching staff, equipment managers, and athletic directors can all access Sideline HQ. Everyone sees the same real-time data.
Most programs are fully set up in under an hour. You can import existing rosters from a spreadsheet, add equipment manually or in bulk, and start checking gear in and out the same day.
Yes. Sideline HQ uses AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit. Your program's data is stored securely and is only accessible to authorized users in your organization.
