Cubcab

CubCab makes team carpooling simple. Built for busy sports parents, CubCab turns the chaos of group texts and spreadsheets into one clear, shared plan. Sync your team's schedule, set up carpools for any practice or game, and let other parents claim seats and driving duty — everyone stays on the same page. TEAM-WIDE CARPOOLS Create a carpool for any event and share it with the whole team. Parents can volunteer to drive, request a seat for their child, or hand off a ride when plans change. Seat counts, pickup order, and stops are all visible at a glance, so no one has to guess who's driving. PARENT-TO-PARENT MESSAGING Every carpool has its own conversation. Ask "can you grab Britta on the way?" right where the ride lives, instead of digging through a 40-person group text. Notifications keep you posted when something changes — a new driver, a dropped seat, or a rescheduled game. CALENDAR SYNC Connect your team's calendar feed and CubCab imports practices, games, and tournaments automatically. Schedule changes flow through, and carpools affected by a moved or canceled event get flagged so you can fix them before someone shows up at an empty field. ALSO INSIDE - Household accounts so both parents share the same riders and rides - One-time groups for tournaments, birthday parties, and other one-off trips - Multiple riders per family, each with their own schedule - Turn-by-turn handoff to Apple Maps, Google Maps, or Waze - Team roster management and invitations by email - Reminders before departure so nobody is left waiting WHO IT'S FOR Soccer, hockey, baseball, lacrosse, dance, robotics — any team where parents split the driving. If you've ever had four adults texting about one 8am game, CubCab is for you. CubCab is free to use. Questions or feedback? We'd love to hear from you.
