Parents. Coaches. Building a more connected way to organize youth sports. We loved coaching. We love cheering. Chasing down the details shouldn’t take so much away from either. ![Katharine and Josh coaching their youth soccer team on the field](https://huddleupyall.com/hs-fs/hubfs/raider-soccer-137-edited.png?width=318&height=477&name=raider-soccer-137-edited.png) The sidelines are where our story started. MEET KATHARINE & JOSH ## we knew it could feel easier. We coached youth soccer together for about five years. We loved showing up for our players, and we worked hard to keep families informed. But the tools available never quite fit the way our team worked. Keeping things organized meant building our own systems and spending more time on the details than we wanted to. Then we spent two years on the sidelines as parents. The frustration grew when we were the ones searching for updates or trying to piece together the plan. We knew how much coaches and managers cared, and how much they were juggling. We also knew, from running our own teams, how much smoother a season could feel when the details were clear. That experience stayed with us. Why should keeping a team organized take so much effort? And why should families have to work so hard to stay in the loop? HuddleUp grew from those questions and the belief that it could be better. We’re building a more connected way to organize youth sports, with less chasing for coaches, more clarity for parents, and more room for players to enjoy the game. Katharine & Josh | HuddleUp co-founders ×*↗*○*⤴*× THE REASON WE’RE BUILDING ## good team organization shouldn’t be a second job. A clear plan can change how a whole team’s week feels. We’re designing HuddleUp to bring communication, schedules, and everyday coordination together, so keeping everyone informed takes less piecing together. For the team you coach and the teams you cheer for. One team or several. More time for the people who brought you to the field in the first place. ## what matters to us. ✓ ### Clarity for families Knowing where to be and where to find the details shouldn’t be the hardest part of a team’s week. ○ ↗ ### Room for coaches Coaches put so much into their players. We want the organization around a team to feel more manageable. ♡ ### Connection around the game The friendships, the encouragement, and the shared effort. That’s the team life we want to make more room for.   BUILT BY PARENTS AND COACHES IN LUBBOCK ## we’re still building. we’d love your perspective!
