WHAT TO EXPECT
Once registered, your player’s team information, schedule, and program updates will be shared through TeamSnap ONE. Families should download the app and watch for their team or group invitation.
Your child’s specific MLS GO time will be communicated through TeamSnap ONE before the season begins. Throughout the season, we’ll use TeamSnap ONE and email to share schedules, reminders, program updates, and any additional information families need.
Our goal is to keep the experience welcoming, organized, and easy to follow so families can focus on what matters most: helping their player participate, grow, and enjoy the game.
