For Colorado school administrators and staff. This is not a fan app: a School Center account from your school or CHSAA is required to sign in, and there are no public schedules, scores or ticket sales inside it. FOR ATHLETIC DIRECTORS AND SCHOOL STAFF • Your school's scoreboard, schedule, streams and tickets in one place • The statewide staff directory, saved on your phone so it works in a gym with no signal • CHSAA news and announcements • Inbox: messages from CHSAA and direct messages with other athletic directors • Set up gate scanners for your events and see who scanned in FOR COURTESY PASS HOLDERS • Your CHSAA courtesy pass, issued by CHSAA or a member school, with a code that refreshes daily and works offline FOR GATE VOLUNTEERS • Scan passes at the gate with the camera. No account needed: your athletic director gives you a setup code or a poster to scan. Works with no signal and syncs when you're back online. Fans and families: scores, schedules and news are at chsaanow.com. This app is for the people who run the events.
