In their own words
Chalk
Chalk is a youth sports team management service for coaches, parents, and club directors, available on Android, iOS, and the web. Coaches can handle rosters, scheduling, tryouts, newsletters, waivers, payments, and game-day scorekeeping. Field Mode and Smart Reminders are among its coaching tools, while club administrators can oversee multiple teams, shared resources, registrations, organization-wide tryouts, and finances. Its free plan includes scheduling, dues and registrations, digital waivers, team chat, RSVP, and unlimited players. Coach Pro costs $9 per month and has a 14-day trial; it adds Field Mode, Smart Reminders, Tournament Hosting access, season archives, and priority support. Chalk charges a 5% platform fee on transactions, in addition to Stripe card processing at 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction. Payments go to a connected Stripe account rather than being held by Chalk. The service is available only in the United States, and it does not supply a drill library.
