Other than Home Teams Oline, League Lineup, Eteamz, Sports Nogin, what are some other ones are out there that aren't too expensive ?

Last year I built a website using WIX for our team. Once you get the hang of WIX it is fairly easy to use. I basically built this site for recruiting purposes and it has player profiles, schedules, pics, etc. The team is no longer in existence so I just deleted the site and account. I have recently seen a shift into teams using Facebook for the same purpose. In my DDs current organization the 18u team above us is using FB as their main source of player info. and they created player profiles, etc. on the FB page. Curious to see if others are doing just the FB page. We were doing both website and FB on our old team.

Very nice to see the site ............


Just curious, why are the players profiles not in a PDF format?

Good question Mike...Is there a big difference between them being in Word then PDF??

My guess is Word can easily be edited; whereas, PDFs are not as editable (haha)...you have to have the right Adobe software to actually edit PDFs. That would be my guess.

PDFs tend to look more professional. Just my opinion.


Plus the editing aspect too.

On our last team I built a site in Wordpress. It's free, though I paid $18 for the year to get a real site name (www.sitename.com instead of wordpress.sitename.com). It's not specific to sports but I added a calendar for the schedule. Actually it looks like the site is still up even though the team is history, if you want to check it out. It was pretty easy to do.

If you have a parent, board member, someone that can work with Wordpress....this is the way to go. You aren't limited by and design/layout restrictions. Might as well get a plug for our site..done by yours truly Home - Triton Youth Fastpitch Softball Association But it really depends on what you are trying to get out of it. if you are looking for all the extras and "ready-to-go" that pre-built/configured team sites offer...I would suggest Sports Ngin.

Also, if you are a non-profit, check with local web design companies to see if any would be interested in donating the site/hosting.

This is a nice site. Will check out Wordpress.

I think they contacted local web companies but didn't get any response. Thanks for the suggestion!
