Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: VCS Athletics at none against TeamSnap's 7. VCS Athletics also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). TeamSnap's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (60K vs 11). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
