The subs tracker built for five-a-side teams
Every team has someone who ends up fronting the pitch hire and chasing subs over text. SquadKitty is the free, shared answer to "how much is left in the kitty?" — no spreadsheet, no signups for the rest of the squad.
Built for match nights, not accounting software
Pitch hire is booked weekly, a ref sometimes needs paying, and someone always ends up covering the gap until subs land. That person is usually you. SquadKitty turns that into a link you can share in the group chat — anyone can check the balance, only you can edit it.
- Pitch hire, referee and equipment as ready-made categories — rename or add your own any time
- Set weekly or monthly subs per player and see who's paid at a glance
- A live balance link anyone on the team can open — no account needed to view it
- "About 4 more weeks at recent spending" — a running-out-of-money warning before it happens
How it works
- Create your fund. Sign up free and pick "Pitch sports" — pitch hire, referee and equipment are set up for you.
- Share the link or code. Drop it in your team's WhatsApp or group chat. Anyone with it can see the balance — no account needed.
- Log subs and spending. Add your players, then record who's paid and what the pitch and ref cost.
- Everyone stays in sync. The balance updates live for anyone watching the link. Only you can add or edit entries.
Why not just a spreadsheet or a WhatsApp message?
Because nobody opens the spreadsheet, and a message showing the balance is out of date the moment someone pays you after the match. A link that's always current is the only version people actually check — and it means you stop being asked "how much is left?" in the group chat.
Questions
- Do the rest of the team need to sign up?
- No. Only the organiser needs an account. Everyone else just opens the link.
- Is it free?
- Yes, no card required.
- Does real money move through the app?
- No — it's a running tally of what's been collected and spent, not a payment app.
- We also play netball — does this still work?
- Yes, pitch sports all share the same preset, and categories are fully editable.
