SnackRoster: snack duty, carpools and field jobs, sorted for the season · Updated September 4, 2026

How SnackRoster builds a season of duties

The core idea is straightforward: SnackRoster converts a team roster and a game schedule into a balanced rotation. Instead of a coach or team parent hand-assigning snack duty week by week, the tool spreads snacks, carpools and field jobs across all the families and keeps track of past assignments so the same people are not stuck doing everything.

Once the rotation is set, it runs mostly on its own. SnackRoster sends automated reminders by text and email (the site describes nudges at 48 hours and 3 hours before each game) and publishes every duty date to Google Calendar and Apple Calendar. When someone cannot make their slot, a one-tap swap updates the rest of the schedule automatically.

It also handles the details that usually live in a group chat: snack cards can flag allergies and special requirements, and the carpool view tracks seat availability and drive times so the driving does not quietly fall on the same two parents.

Who ends up using it

SnackRoster is aimed at the people who run youth sports logistics rather than the players. According to the site, that means team parents, coaches, club administrators, league coordinators and volunteer managers.

The product frames itself around youth soccer, baseball and basketball programs, the kinds of teams with a full roster of families and a recurring game schedule. It scales from a single team up to a club or a whole league, which is reflected in how the plans are priced.

One notable design choice: the tool is built so families never have to pay or install anything to be scheduled. The organizer runs SnackRoster, and everyone else just receives reminders and shows up (or swaps out).

What it costs

SnackRoster publishes three tiers. One Team is listed at $8 per month for a single roster of up to 30 families. Club is $29 per month for up to 25 rosters. League is $89 per month for unlimited rosters.

The site states there are no per-family fees, that families never pay, and that billing is monthly with cancellation at any time. In other words, the cost sits with the organizer or the club, not with the parents being scheduled.

The numbers on the page

SnackRoster does not hide behind vague promises: it puts figures on its own site. The company reports 96% duty-slot coverage on game day, up from about 70% before teams switched, and says managers recover roughly 3.5 hours a week once a season is set up.

It also claims a 71% reduction in team-chat messages about who owes what, and describes teams spreading the workload across 17 families instead of the usual four regular volunteers. The site says 1,842 teams are active on the platform.

These are the company's own marketing numbers, presented as such. They are worth reading as claims rather than independently audited results, which is the honest way to treat any figure a product prints about itself.
