The Workflow

How DraftTime Works for Football

From registration through results — the full Football operating cycle on one platform.

  1. 01

    Register & Structure

    Set up programs, seasons and divisions with age or grade eligibility and an age cutoff date. Collect waivers, payments and positions at registration — every player gets a permanent profile and Athlete ID.

  2. 02

    Run the Performance Lab

    Build stations for the 40, shuttle and position drills, assign evaluators per station, check players in by QR code, and run timed drills on the embedded speed timer.

  3. 03

    Score, Rank & Report

    Blind scoring keeps results honest; weighted metrics and position-specific scores roll into Performance Lab scores, percentile rankings and live leaderboards — with automated result emails to every family.

  4. 04

    Draft & Build Teams

    Run a live snake draft with a public viewing mode for families, or auto-generate balanced teams — then lock rosters and track every placement with a full audit trail.

Registration & Athlete Profiles

Every Athlete, One Permanent Record

Registration

Seasons with age or grade eligibility rules and a configurable age cutoff date, custom divisions from 8U to 14U and beyond, capacity limits with waitlists, and family/sibling discounts for multiple players.

Athlete Profiles

Primary and secondary positions, height and weight, graduation year, photos, tags and achievements — every player carries one permanent profile across every season and organization.

Performance Lab

Football Performance Lab Templates

A typical DraftTime football Performance Lab template:

Build any of these with DraftTime's Performance Lab template builder — tryout, practice, game and camp templates with custom metric types, multiple attempts, position-specific scoring and 1–5, 1–10 or 1–100 scales. Timed drills can run on the embedded speed timer.

Event Day

Check-In, Stations & Live Operations

The same event engine runs Performance Lab sessions, tryouts, camps, clinics and meets.

Event Day & Check-In

Every Football event runs on the same operational engine. Families register online and each registration receives its own check-in QR code. On event day, staff scan athletes in at the gate with optional photo capture, add walk-ups on site, and track every station, evaluator and athlete in real time from Mission Control.

Scoring Workflow

Evaluators score from any device at their station, and blind scoring keeps results hidden until submission so each judge works independently. A head evaluator can review and override with a recorded reason. Weighted metrics and position-specific scoring let your Football staff emphasize exactly what matters for each position group.

Rankings & Results

Performance Lab scores and percentile rankings update live during the event, and public leaderboards can be toggled on for families. Every score lands on the player's profile and feeds AI-generated athlete reports and development plans.

Team Building

Drafting & Rosters

Placement tools for programs that form teams from Performance Lab results.

Draft & Team Building

The Live Draft Center runs a professional snake draft with an optional public broadcast mode so families can watch picks in real time. Prefer data-driven balance? The Balanced Team Builder generates fair teams from Performance Lab scores automatically — and roster lock freezes final rosters with audited overrides when needed.

Season Operations

Everything Around the Performance Lab

Communications

Targeted email and SMS with per-recipient delivery tracking and a full communication history. Send to filtered groups by division, program or event — and after every Football event, automated result emails reach each family automatically.

Payments & Registration Management

Online Football registration with Stripe or PayPal checkout, Save & Pay Later for families who need time, family/sibling discounts, coupon codes and scholarships, payment plans, and parent-ready invoices and receipts that carry the registration's check-in QR code.

Development & Athlete History

Every 40 time, jump, position score and roster move lands on the athlete's permanent profile — speed, explosiveness and position ratings trend season over season, with AI development plans targeting each player's weakest measured areas.

The Whole Organization

Families & Administrators

Parent & Family Experience

Parents register in minutes, receive automated confirmations and result emails, view public leaderboards when you enable them, and follow their athlete's Football development on a permanent profile that travels across seasons and organizations.

Administrative Tools

Role-based staff permissions (Commissioner, Director, Division Director, Coach, Evaluator, Check-In Staff, Finance and more), a full audit log of sensitive actions, custom division eligibility rules with a configurable age cutoff date, capacity limits and waitlists, white-label branding, and your own public organization website — one place to run Football.
