TEAM SNAP
SGSA uses the app Team Snap to help manage teams. This app has scheduling, chat, and messaging features. When your child is assigned to a team, you will be asked to download the app. Your child’s schedule will be uploaded to the app along with links to field locations. Team Snap is also used to send notices about cancelled practices due to air quality and inclement weather.
