Release: Free Registrations for Tryouts and Open Sessions

Free Registrations for Tryouts and Open Sessions

You can now publish a free registration, so families can sign up for tryouts, evaluation days, and open sessions without entering a card.

  • Mark any registration as Free. It's a deliberate setting, not a $0 price, and it shows as "Free" in Admin and on your portal.

  • No payment step for families. Parents sign in, accept any required waivers or documents, and confirm. That's it.

  • Clear confirmation. The confirmation screen and email say there's no charge, with no amount, payment method, or receipt.

  • Everything else still works. Custom info fields, required waivers, enrollment windows, age limits, and participant limits all apply. When a free registration fills, it closes just like a paid one.

  • Clean reporting. Free registrations count toward registrant totals but stay out of revenue, and they're labeled separately from enrollments an admin waived.

Who it helps: clubs running tryouts and open sessions that want a real headcount and signed waivers before anyone steps on the field, without a fee standing in the way.

The Futures App is the all-in-one platform built for youth and travel sports organizations. We help coaches, club directors, facility owners, and independent trainers run their entire operation from a single app — so they can spend less time on administration and more time developing players.

The platform combines everything a modern sports organization needs: player development tools for tracking video, metrics, and drills; facility and booking management with real-time availability; payments and registration for memberships, teams, camps, and bulk invoicing; team communication through structured channels and direct messaging; and professional website hosting built for sports organizations.

The Futures App is used by clubs, academies, and training facilities across baseball, softball, basketball, soccer, volleyball, lacrosse, football, and more. Whether you're running a 200-family travel club or a single-sport training facility, the platform is designed to grow with your organization.

If you're ready to stop duct-taping tools together and run your organization the way it deserves to be run, book a demo and see The Futures App in action.
