A GameChanger Organization is a league, tournament, or travel organization created in GameChanger to keep track of the teams in your program. With an Organization, you can manage teams in one place, schedule Head-to-Head matchups, share updates, and organize activity across your group.
Organizations can currently be created for Baseball, Softball, Basketball, Football, and Flag Football. Additional sports may become available over time.
A GameChanger Organization can include 2 to 100 teams.
Head-to-Head games are created by an Organization Admin from the Organization schedule, and both teams must already be part of the Organization before the matchup can be scheduled. Once created, the game is synced to both team schedules. Each team is permitted to score the event as well as the Org Admins.
For baseball and softball Organizations, Admins can review available scorebooks and select the official version if needed.
Yes. If one team starts a live stream for a Head-to-Head game, that stream can also be shared with the opposing team. Both teams can access the stream, and either team can choose to start its own stream instead.
If the other team is already streaming and you want to create your own, as Staff, you can end the incoming stream for your team. This does not end the stream for the other team, but frees up your team to create your own stream.
Team Staff, Organization Admins, or team-designated scorekeepers can score the event. For Head-to-Head games, the official scorekeeper is the eligible scorer who taps Score Game first, and that scorebook becomes the official version unless it is later adjusted by the Organization.
Yes! Organization Admins can bulk import schedules on web.gc.com using a CSV file. If you are importing from Sports Connect, you can export your events as a CSV file from Sports Connect and import that file with just a few tweaks.
If you are using Sports Connect and bulk importing, make sure teams do not also post their schedules in Sports Connect. Posting there and importing into your Organization will create duplicate events.
At this time, GameChanger does not support a built-in bracket creation tool for Organizations. As a workaround, you can schedule placeholder ("TBD") games and update those matchups as teams advance.
Admins can use our Organization Announcements feature to send key updates to the team's Staff and communities. Announcements are a helpful way to share updates across your Organization. Recipients can view announcements, but they cannot reply to them.
