We Schedule Youth Sports Tournaments
Hello! We are Universal Scheduling. We help you schedule youth sports tournaments (like soccer, lacrosse or basketball) where hundreds of teams may play 3-4 games each over one weekend. We guarantee schedules where no coach has to miss a game due to another one of their teams playing at the same time. Best of all, we do it within your existing platform (GotSport, TourneyMachine, TeamSnap or anything else).
All coach conflicts resolved, or your money back1
$50 refund for each game that a two team coach has to miss because of conflicts. $25 / game for a three team coach

Coach Schedule Report
You get a schedule summary for each coach with multiple teams in the tournament. So you don't have to take our word for number of unresolved conflicts.

Ref Assignor Report
Ref assignors dig the overall tournament summary we provide. Show your ref assignor this report, and see their faces light up. We also offer your referee assignor a set of tools to send out assignments, collect referee confirmations, and produce pay reports.

Coaching Conflict Request Page
Optional: We set up a custom page for coaches to submit their team names in your tournament. It gives us a definitive "coach conflict" list to use while scheduling.

Scheduling

Normally tournament directors like to use us as a behind the scenes resource. However, you could ask us to work directly with the teams on matters pertaining to the schedule. $3 / team.
More from Universal Scheduling
Scheduling is what we're known for, but it's not all we do. A few more ways we help youth-sports events run.
-
Remote Assistant Tournament Director
You bring the teams and run the event on the ground; we handle everything on the computer. Setting your tournament up in the platform, collecting fees, accepting teams, building flights, answering team questions, scheduling games, keeping scores flowing and complete, producing the numbers you need to order medals, and coordinating with your referee assignor - all the screen work, done for you. Ideal for a respected coach or club administrator who can fill a tournament but would rather not be chained to a keyboard.

Team Check-in & Online Waivers
Collect rosters, player cards, and signed waivers in one place. Teams upload their documents through a simple link, families sign waivers online, and you get a clear, up-to-date view of which teams are ready to play. Available on its own, or alongside the events we schedule.
