Signups and waitlist

Know who is in

Collect a clear weekly headcount and keep extra players in order. When somebody drops out, the next person is already visible.

Built for the weekly game

Clear names. Fair sides. Less chasing.

01

One answer for this week

A busy group chat makes a simple question hard to answer: who is actually playing? Replies arrive between jokes, venue messages, and old conversations. Some players say maybe, others react with an emoji, and the organiser ends up rebuilding the list by hand.

Astro Weekly gives the weekly game a clear signup list. Players open the shared link and join the current game. The organiser sees the live headcount without searching through messages or maintaining a second spreadsheet.

02

Keep a fair waiting list

When capacity is reached, the next players do not disappear into the chat. They join an ordered waiting list, so everyone can see who is next. If a confirmed player drops out, the spare place can move to the next person without a fresh round of messages.

That order protects trust. Regulars know the same process applies each week, and the organiser does not have to decide from memory who replied first. The list is practical for 5-a-side games with ten places and just as useful for larger sixes or sevens groups.

  1. 01Share the group link when signups open.
  2. 02Players join until the game reaches its capacity.
  3. 03Extra players enter the waiting list in order.
  4. 04Use the next name when a confirmed player drops out.

03

Handle dropouts calmly

Late changes will still happen. The difference is that the organiser has a prepared answer. Instead of posting an urgent message and accepting whichever reply appears first, you can contact or promote the next waiting player.

The current list also gives the group a shared source of truth. Players can check their status before arranging travel, while the organiser can focus on the venue and teams. It reduces misunderstandings without trying to eliminate the social group chat.

04

Connect signups to teams

Attendance is the first step in the weekly loop. Once the confirmed squad is right, Astro Weekly can create fair teams from those names, help track weekly subs, and collect ratings after the match. You do not need to retype the list into separate tools.

The result is a repeatable routine: open the game, fill the places, use the waiting list for changes, choose teams, and play. Each part supports the next, while the organiser remains in control of capacity and player decisions.
