One app for the season
Schedule, changes, scores, payments and messages in one branded app.
LeagueApps alternative for clubs, leagues, camps and tournament operators.Switching from LeagueApps,
program by program.
You run programs on LeagueApps and you are looking at an alternative. This is the practical version: what comes out, what we do with it, how fast the switch happens, and what your families will notice.
This is not a feature scorecard. It is what the move from LeagueApps to Sketchplay actually involves, written for the organization that has already decided to look.
Statements about LeagueApps refer to their public help center and terms, re-checked August 17, 2026.
The migration map
What moves from LeagueApps to Sketchplay
LeagueApps documents its exports openly, including guides for exporting to other platforms. Export per program and per season, and name the files so a stranger could tell them apart.
| What you have on LeagueApps | How it comes out | What we do with it |
|---|---|---|
| Members and contacts | Members report exports to CSV with a column picker (their help center documents this, plus platform-specific export guides). | Imported once into one roster. Every family reachable from day one; nothing re-typed. |
| Registrations | Registration report exports to CSV; custom form fields arrive collapsed into one column and must be extracted into real columns first. | Registration and payment run as one flow on your own site; custom questions stay as real fields on the roster. |
| Invoices and payments | Invoices, transactions, credits, discounts and e-commerce orders export to CSV. Money itself does not migrate from any platform. | New payments run on your own Stripe account; payouts land in your bank directly. |
| Waivers | Each signed waiver downloads individually from the program's player list; no bulk download is documented. | Waivers signed inside registration, stored on the roster, downloadable. |
| Schedules and standings | We could not find a documented CSV export; their API (public and private keys from Integrations) is the structured route. | History imported as records. Future seasons come out of the AI Scheduler and re-solve when a field closes. |
| Your website and app | Nothing to export; it is theirs. | A branded site and app space, included with every plan. |
| The agreement | Their terms say either party may terminate at any time, and that on termination your data may be deleted and copies may not be available. Export first. | One flat monthly price by organization size, no per-team fees. |
How long it takes
One call to start. Switched by your next program.
1
The call
Thirty minutes, your real programs on screen. We tell you which reports to export, per program and per season, and how to extract the custom fields; you run them the same day.
2
We import and build
Members, registrations and history loaded; programs and payment plans set up; your site and app standing with your data on it. Days, not a season.
3
Your next program opens on Sketchplay
Open registration here while LeagueApps is still readable. When the first families are through, your domain moves and you cancel on your terms.
We do the migration. Not a guide you follow alone: our team runs the import with you and stays on the phone through your first registration and first event.

After the switch
What your teams and families notice after the switch
One place to pay
Dues, camps, tickets and merch on the same account.
Changes reach them
A field closes; text, email, push and in-app go out from the roster in one send.
Nothing to re-register
Tryouts, placement and the season run on one record per family.
Straight talk
What a LeagueApps alternative does not do for you, said plainly.
- We import what you export. There is no live sync from LeagueApps; history comes across as records from your CSVs or their API, once, and we help you do it.
- Signed waivers download one at a time on their side. Budget the time, or accept that older waivers stay in your archive rather than on the new roster.
- We do not offer facility booking. Website design we do: your branded site is included with every plan and built with you. If facility booking is why you are on LeagueApps, say so on the call and we will tell you plainly whether we fit.
Questions
Leaving LeagueApps: the questions we get
Does LeagueApps let us export our own data?
Yes, and they document it openly. The Members report and the Registrations report both export, and depending on the report you can take CSV, Excel, or PDF. They also publish articles for exporting your data specifically to import into other platforms, which is an unusually straightforward thing for a vendor to provide.
What do clubs most often lose on the way out?
Custom form fields. In the Registrations report they are collapsed into a single Custom Form Fields column, and you have to right-click it, choose Extract columns, select the fields and confirm before they become real columns in your export. Nobody finds that by accident, so the club-specific data like medical notes, school, jersey size, or volunteer preference is exactly what gets left behind.
Should we export each program separately?
Yes. One blended export across every program and season is very hard to unpick later when someone asks about one specific season. Export per program and per season and name the files so a stranger could tell them apart in a year.
Can we automate a backup before we move?
You can schedule an export to run on a cadence and email it to addresses that do not have to be inside your organization. Setting a weekly export to a club-owned address in the weeks before a switch is cheap insurance, and it means a recent snapshot does not depend on still having a login.
What will Sketchplay import from a LeagueApps export?
That depends on which fields you selected and how your programs were structured, so we would rather open your actual CSVs with you than quote a number on a web page. Bring them to a demo and we will tell you what maps across and what needs rework.
