Registration
Manage Basketball Tournament Registration with Volley
For most Basketball organisers, the registration flow is the most thankless part of the job. You set it up, chase people, collect money, send reminders, and end up with half the field showing up unannounced. Volley's registration flow is built specifically for this problem.
How Volley handles registration
Three things Volley's registration does that spreadsheets can't: enforces a max player count automatically (no overflow), maintains a real waitlist with auto-promotion, and ties payment to registration so unpaid players don't take a slot.
For a tournament, the flow is: create the event in Volley, set max participants, share the join link, players sign up themselves. The waitlist auto-promotes if someone drops out, and (if the event is paid) entry fees are collected at registration time.
Why it beats spreadsheets
Spreadsheets don't enforce max participants. They don't auto-waitlist. They don't collect payments. They don't send reminders. Volley does all of these — no setup, no maintenance.
Built-in registration is the difference between running an event in 30 minutes and running it in 5 hours.
Free on iOS and Android
Volley is free to download with built-in registration on every tier. Premium tiers add advanced features for organisers running paid events at scale.
Frequently asked questions
Can players register for basketball events through Volley?
Yes. Players tap a join link, pick their slot, pay (if paid), and they're in. The whole flow is mobile-first and takes about 30 seconds.
Does Volley handle waitlists?
Yes. Once registration hits the max participant count, new sign-ups go onto a waitlist. If someone drops out, the next person on the waitlist is auto-promoted.
Can I set registration deadlines?
Yes. Each event has a registration close date/time. After the deadline, the join link stops accepting new sign-ups (or moves them to the waitlist if you prefer).
