The Crusader Football Alumni Association website was created to keep former Crusader football players connected to each other and to the football program. It gives alumni one place to stay updated on events, communicate with other members, participate in polls and discussions, and keep up with what is happening within the association. The website is designed to make staying involved simple while continuing the friendships, traditions, and sense of community that were built through Crusader football. Ultimately, the CFAA Hub helps keep the Crusader football family connected long after players leave the field.

DugoutHQ is the app for running a youth or travel baseball team — and, as of 2.2.0, for scoring and broadcasting the game too. It was built by a coach who was tired of running a club out of a spreadsheet, a group text, and three different apps. Call the play, and DugoutHQ scores it: DugoutHQ's voice scoring turns what you say into a box score in real time, no tapping between pitches. Go live in true 1080p, and DugoutHQ keeps a full-quality copy of the whole broadcast recorded right on your phone while you stream — it survives a dropped signal or a crash, and it can become the game's official replay with every play already lined up. Families and the fans a team approves can watch live or catch the replay, follow the score on their Lock Screen while it plays, and send the game to the TV with AirPlay. Save and share a clip of any play. Keep your whole program on the same page, too. Post the schedule once and every family sees it. Track who's paid dues and who hasn't, without a shared spreadsheet anyone can edit. Build a lineup and batting order in minutes — or scan an opponent's lineup QR code and skip typing it in. Message your team directly in the app — no separate group chat app, no lost texts. Fan Zone gives every family and fan one home for the teams they follow: pin and reorder the teams that matter most, star the games you don't want to miss, subscribe to a team's schedule in your own calendar app, and search back through every saved video. DugoutHQ's team-management tools — schedules, dues, lineups, chat, scoring — are free to start, no credit card required. Watching game video takes a Viewer Pass; buy or manage one right from the app's Settings, or on the web at dugout-hq.com.
