Stop Reinventing the Wheel Every Game Day

Two battle-tested checklists that have saved Athletic Directors from forgotten equipment, missed compliance deadlines, and 2am "what did I forget?" moments.

Game Day Checklist

Because "I thought someone else was handling that" isn't a plan. Every home game has a hundred things that can go wrong. Missing officials. Locked gates. No one at the ticket booth. This checklist catches them all—48 hours before tipoff, not 48 minutes.

  • 48-hour pre-game preparation checklist
  • Day-of facility setup and safety verification
  • Team arrival and coordination protocols
  • Live game operations monitoring
  • Post-game wrap-up procedures
  • Fillable game day reference sheet

Athletic Compliance Checklist

10 compliance areas that can shut down your program if you miss them. Expired physicals. Lapsed insurance. Missing concussion forms. One overlooked deadline can sideline a star player—or your entire season. This checklist tracks every requirement so nothing slips through the cracks.

  • Student Eligibility
  • Medical Clearances
  • Concussion Protocols
  • Insurance Verification
  • Title IX Compliance
  • Coach Certifications
  • Transportation Safety
  • Equipment Inspections
  • Emergency Action Plans
  • Parent Consent Forms

Built from Real Game Days (and Real Mistakes)

These checklists exist because someone learned the hard way. They're the result of countless post-game debriefs, close calls, and "never again" moments from Athletic Directors who've been there.
