APPLICATION UPDATE!
You may have seen this in your SportsEngine (formerly TeamUnify) account: the OnDeck app is being retired in favor of the SportsEngine Motion app (both applications have been operating in tandem). Your login is the same across all platforms!
The SportsEngine Motion app affords readily accessible features like active practice schedules (any schedule deviations are reflected in the app's calendar view), meet & event declarations, account accessibility, best times, and more!
