Registration runs your teams · we run your staff

Know who to staff.
Pay them right.
Skip the chasing.

Tourney Direct runs the entire staff side of your event — for tournament directors and assignors. Sourcing, scheduling, confirmations, check-in, pay and 1099s, all in one place. We're sharpest where it hurts most: knowing who's reliable before you assign them, and getting every staffer paid right.

Registration runs your teams. We run your staff.

Sign-up platforms own the team side — brackets, rosters, public pages. We own the staff side — everyone who works the event, from sourcing them to filing their 1099s. We're toughest on the two parts that hurt most: who's reliable, and who gets paid.

The team side

Registration Platforms

  • Player & team registration
  • Bracket & game scheduling
  • Roster & eligibility management
  • Public-facing tournament pages
Use them for: everything fans, families, and teams see.

How Teddy works.

Teddy's an AI agent, not another login to manage. You tell him what you want and he handles the back-and-forth with your staff by text.

1

You decide

Tell Teddy what you want in plain words — in the portal or by text. "Confirm all refs for Saturday." "Who still needs a hotel?"

2

Teddy does the legwork

He texts your staff, chases availability, sends reminders, and answers their questions around the clock — all by SMS. No app for them to download.

3

You stay in the loop

Replies and confirmations come back to you. Anything that needs your call — like sending pay — waits for your okay.

You're always in the driver's seat. Teddy handles the busywork. The decisions that matter — who works, and who gets paid — stay yours.

What they actually thank us for.

Not the dashboards. The fact that their people show up, get paid on time, and nobody's chasing a lost check.
