Sideline Ops
RUN YOUR TEAM
DAY TO DAY.
Roll call, checklists, a team calendar, and trips with bus check — an add-on to Sideline HQ, under the same login as your equipment.
Built for youth sports, high school, small college and FCS/FBS teams.
Plan on the web
Build checklists, the calendar, and trips on your computer. Review attendance history with filters.
Run it from your phone
Take roll, tick off your items, check your week, and run the bus check from the sideline.
Equipment stays first
Equipment is still the first tab in the app. Ops sits beside it, under the same login.
Attendance & Roll Call
PhoneWebTAKE ROLL. WITH OR WITHOUT SIGNAL.
Take roll call at practice, a meeting, a workout, or on the bus. Mark everyone present, then tap only the exceptions. No signal on the back field or the bus? The roll call saves on your phone and syncs when you're back online.
How it works
Start roll call
Open the Roll call tab, tap Start roll call, and pick what you're taking it for: practice, meeting, workout, travel, or a checkpoint.
Tap the exceptions
Your roster loads. Tap Mark all present, then tap a player to cycle through absent, tardy, excused, or left early.
Submit
Tap Submit. With no signal, it saves on the phone and syncs on its own when you have service.
Review on the web
Open attendance history on the web and filter by player, status, team, position, grad year, or event type. Download what's on screen as a CSV.
Checklists
WebPhoneWHO DID WHAT. AND WHEN.
Build a checklist on the web from scratch or from a template, assign each item to a staff member, and tie it to a game or practice if you want. On the phone, each coach gets a “My items” list. Tick an item off and it stays on the list with who did it and when.
How it works
Start a list
On the web, pick New checklist and start from a blank list or one of the starter templates, like Away game, Home game, or Equipment issue day.
Assign it
Give each item to a staff member and set a due date. Link the list to a game or practice if it belongs to one.
Check it off on the phone
Each coach opens the Lists tab, then My items, and ticks off what's theirs.
See who did it
Ticked items stay on the list, marked with who ticked them and when. No more “I thought you had it.”
Team Calendar
WebPhonePRACTICES, GAMES, AND EVENTS. ONE CALENDAR.
Put every practice, game, meeting and event in one place. Build it on the web, and your staff sees it on their phones, week by week.
How it works
Add your schedule
On the web, add events one at a time, set a practice to repeat, or upload a spreadsheet of your schedule.
Pick a view
Switch between month, week, and list views, and filter by sport.
Check it on your phone
Staff open the Calendar tab to see what's coming up, week by week.
Roll call from the event
Open an event and tap Take roll call to tie the attendance to that practice or game.
Trips & Bus Check
WebPhonePLAN THE TRIP. COUNT EVERY RIDER.
Plan the trip on the web: itinerary, who's traveling, and which bus each traveler is on. Then on game day, run the bus check from your phone and see at a glance who's still missing.
How it works
Plan the trip
On the web, add the itinerary, the travelers, and your buses. Rooming and packing lists live there too.
Open Bus check
On the phone, open the Roll call tab and tap Bus check, then choose the trip.
Pick the check
Choose a departure check, a return check, or a checkpoint, and a single bus or the whole trip.
Count them on
Tap riders as they board. The screen shows a live count like “42 / 44 on bus” and puts anyone missing at the top.
Good to know
GETTING SIDELINE OPS
What is Sideline Ops?
Sideline Ops is an add-on to Sideline HQ for running your team day to day: roll call and attendance, checklists, a team calendar, and trips with bus check. It sits alongside your equipment management, under the same login.
How do I get Sideline Ops?
Ops is an add-on, so it shows up in your account once we turn it on for your school. Ask us and we'll set it up and quote it for your program.
Does roll call work without a signal?
Yes. Roll call saves on your phone when you're offline and syncs on its own when you're back online. Planning tools like the calendar and trips are built on the web.
What do I need on my phone?
The latest Sideline HQ app update for iPhone or Android. Equipment stays the first tab, and Ops sits beside it in the tab bar once Ops is on for your school.
Can I do everything in the app?
Not everything, and that's by design. You plan on the web (checklists, calendar, trips, attendance reports) and run it from your phone (roll call, My items, bus check, your week at a glance). Reports and bulk uploads stay on the web.
Who can see my team's attendance?
Coaches only see and take roll for their own sport. Athletic directors see across the school.
