For season leagues, standing assignments auto-populate each week. Open slots broadcast to the pool when someone is unavailable.
Open slots broadcast to your ref pool. Refs see date, time, field, and pay rate on their phone — tap to accept. No group texts, no back-and-forth.
Refs get reminders at 72 hours, 24 hours, and game morning. When they arrive, they check in through the app with geo-fenced confirmation. Green means on-site, yellow means en route, red means no-show.
If a ref hasn't checked in by game time, you get an alert — not after the game, before it. Enough time to reassign, combine fields, or adjust the schedule.
Tournament mode broadcasts the full schedule to your pool for pickup. Season mode auto-populates standing weekly assignments — when a ref is unavailable, that slot broadcasts automatically.
Set pay rates per game, per hour, or flat per day. Flag50 calculates what each ref is owed from assignment and check-in records. Export to CSV or review in the dashboard.
Every check-in logs arrival time and confirms the ref was physically at the venue. Timestamped documentation for billing, disputes, or replacing the clipboard sign-in sheet.
The director or officiating company posts open slots to the referee pool through Flag50. Each referee sees available games on their phone, filtered by date and location. They tap to accept the assignments they want. Once accepted, the assignment locks in and the referee receives automated reminders at 72 hours, 24 hours, and the morning of the game.
Flag50 uses geo-fenced check-in to track referee arrivals. If a referee hasn't checked in at the field by game time, the director receives an alert immediately. This gives the director time to reassign the game or make alternate arrangements before play is affected -- not after the fact.
When a referee arrives at the venue, the Flag50 app detects that they are within the geo-fence boundary of the field location. The referee taps to check in, and their arrival time is logged automatically. The director sees a real-time check-in board showing which refs are on-site and which are still en route.
Yes. You set the pay rate per game or as a flat rate per day. Flag50 calculates each referee's payroll from their assignment and check-in records. The payroll report exports to CSV for your accounting system or can be reviewed directly in the admin dashboard.
Yes. Officiating companies can manage their entire referee roster in Flag50, broadcast tournament and season assignments to their pool, track check-ins across multiple venues, and calculate payroll. The company admin sees all assignments and check-in data across every event they service.
