The free app for basketball in Boston
Built for basketball teams across Boston — from Cambridge and Somerville outward. Schedule your practice, see who has actually confirmed, message everyone at once and keep track of gym time and league entry. Free for teams of up to 20.
On the ground in Boston
Why organising basketball in Boston is its own problem
Gym time is booked and paid in blocks, so five players at a ten-player practice is a wasted hour you already own. The student cycle rebuilds half the city's rosters every September and empties them again in May.
The season works against you
Hard winters and a rink-and-gym calendar that is set months ahead.
Getting there is half the decision
Squads in Boston get drawn from Cambridge, Somerville, Dorchester and Brighton rather than one neighbourhood, so travel time is part of every yes or no. A confirmation that lands at lunchtime is worth far more than one that lands at six.
Money moves faster than the record of it
In the United States, money for gym time and league entry gets settled with Venmo in seconds. What nobody keeps is the list of who has and who has not — so that job falls to whoever is least likely to forget, which is rarely the same person twice.
What you get
Everything your Boston basketball team needs
Know your numbers before the practice
Post the practice once, wherever it is in Boston, and every one of your players confirms with one tap. You see the count while there is still time to do something about it.
One place instead of the group chat
Announce a venue change, a weather call or a time shift and have it stay visible at the top — rather than scrolling away under replies from people in Cambridge.
Track gym time and league entry
Set up what each of your players owes and mark it off as it comes in. TeamCheck never touches the money — settle up with Venmo exactly as you do now, then mark it paid so the list is right.
See who actually turns up
Attendance stats per member, so you know who is carrying the basketball team and who has quietly stopped coming — before they drift off entirely.

Basketball in Boston: common questions
Is TeamCheck free for basketball teams in Boston?
Yes. Scheduling, attendance, chat, announcements and payment tracking are all free for a team of up to 20 members, with no per-player pricing. An optional Pro plan raises the limit to 100 and adds automatic reminders, calendar sync, polls and analytics for past months.
Can it handle gym time and league entry in the United States?
It tracks them rather than processes them. Set what each of your players owes, and as people settle up — with Venmo, or in cash — mark it paid and the list stays accurate. Payment plans are denominated in USD or EUR. TeamCheck is the record, not the payment rail.
We already have a WhatsApp group. Why change?
Because a chat cannot tell you a number. Running two squads out of one hall means one schedule change hits twice as many people. In TeamCheck the answer is a list you can look at, announcements stay pinned instead of scrolling away, and what everyone owes for gym time and league entry sits next to the schedule instead of in somebody's notes app.
Does it work for more than one group across Boston?
Yes. Run separate groups — by level, by night, or by where in Boston they train — each with its own schedule, register and chat, all under one account. People only get notified about the groups they are actually in.
