Getting started, step by step

  1. Receive your invitation

    Your child's club will send you an email invitation with a unique link to join FootyLineup. It comes from the club administrator or a coach and is completely free to accept.

    • A friendly email with your personal invitation link
    • Zero costs or hidden fees
    • A personal welcome message from your club

    Tip: Can't find it? Check your spam or junk folder, then ask the club to resend.

  2. Create your free account

    Click the link and you'll land on a simple sign-up page. The whole process takes under two minutes.

    • Your email address
    • A password you'll remember
    • No payment card required

    Why it matters: Your account is the single secure place for all of your child's football information.

  3. Confirm your child's details

    Once you're in, you'll see your child's profile already set up by the club. Give it a quick check.

    • Verify their name and age group
    • Confirm their squad or team
    • Fill in any missing information

    Peace of mind: You stay in control of your child's information and can update it at any time.

  4. Mark availability

    Instead of replying to group messages, mark your child's availability in a few taps.

    • See upcoming matches and training sessions
    • Tap Available or Unavailable for each event
    • Coaches see responses in real time
    • Change your answer anytime if plans change

    The benefit: No more "Can they make it?" messages. Everyone knows where they stand so coaches can plan properly.

  5. Make payments

    When subs or match fees are due, you'll get a notification and can pay securely in seconds.

    • See exactly what's owed and the due date
    • Pay securely through the platform
    • Receive instant confirmation
    • View your full payment history

    Transparent: No awkward conversations about outstanding fees — you always know what you've paid and what's coming.

  6. View match lineups and stats

    Watch your child's football journey unfold with match information and performance data.

    • Match lineups and formations
    • Your child's position and playing time
    • Team results and seasonal performance
    • Goals, assists, and ratings over time

    Share the journey: Your child can see their own progress — concrete things to celebrate together after each game.

  7. Access from any device

    FootyLineup works on all your devices so you're never out of touch.

    • iPhone or Android phone
    • Tablet
    • Laptop or desktop computer
    • Any modern web browser — no app download required

    Always up to date: Whether you're at work, home, or on the sidelines, the same information is at your fingertips.

Common questions

Does it cost anything?
No. Joining FootyLineup is completely free for parents. Your club may have its own membership or match fees, but the platform itself costs you nothing.
What if I don't receive the invitation email?
Check your spam or junk folder first. If it's not there, contact your club administrator — they can resend the invitation directly from the platform.
Can both parents have separate accounts?
Yes. The club can send individual invitations so each parent or guardian has their own account and can manage availability and payments independently.
What if I have more than one child in the club?
One account can manage multiple children. You'll see all of their information in one place.
Is my information secure?
Yes. FootyLineup uses industry-standard encryption and security practices to protect your data. Your information is never shared without your permission.
What if I'm not confident with technology?
FootyLineup is designed to be simple and intuitive. If you can use a smartphone, you can use FootyLineup. Help is always available if you need it.
