The free app for football in Johannesburg
Built for football teams across Johannesburg — from Sandton and Randburg outward. Schedule your training session, see who has actually confirmed, message everyone at once and keep track of pitch hire and match fees. Free for teams of up to 20.
On the ground in Johannesburg
Why organising football in Johannesburg is its own problem
You need eleven plus subs, and you find out you have nine about forty minutes before kick-off. Travel between suburbs after work is slow, so evening training needs a confirmed headcount well before it starts.
The season works against you
Highveld afternoon thunderstorms in summer are close to a fixed appointment, and they end sessions early.
Getting there is half the decision
Squads in Johannesburg get drawn from Sandton, Randburg, Rosebank and Midrand 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 South Africa, money for pitch hire and match fees gets settled with SnapScan or an EFT 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 Johannesburg football team needs
Know your numbers before the training session
Post the training session once, wherever it is in Johannesburg, 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 Sandton.
Track pitch hire and match fees
Set up what each of your players owes and mark it off as it comes in. TeamCheck never touches the money — settle up with SnapScan or an EFT 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 football team and who has quietly stopped coming — before they drift off entirely.

Football in Johannesburg: common questions
Is TeamCheck free for football teams in Johannesburg?
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 pitch hire and match fees in South Africa?
It tracks them rather than processes them. Set what each of your players owes, and as people settle up — with SnapScan or an EFT, 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. The group chat says twelve are in. Six of those said it four days ago and one has already double-booked. In TeamCheck the answer is a list you can look at, announcements stay pinned instead of scrolling away, and what everyone owes for pitch hire and match fees sits next to the schedule instead of in somebody's notes app.
Does it work for more than one group across Johannesburg?
Yes. Run separate groups — by level, by night, or by where in Johannesburg 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.
