  1. 1

    Open Calendar Subscriptions

    In Team Sync Up, go to Settings, then Calendar Subscriptions. You can do this in the app or at teamsyncup.com.
  2. 2

    Choose what to include

    Pick All events, Games only, or Practices only. All events is the default and covers both.
    Choose before you copy. The choice is baked into the link, so changing your mind later means copying a new one.
    The Calendar Subscriptions screen showing All events, Games only and Practices only.
    Games only is ringed here. All events is the default and brings practices along too.

    Tap your team

    Tapping the team copies its link to your clipboard, and you'll see a Copied confirmation.
    Each team has its own link. Following two teams means two subscriptions, added one at a time.
    The team list on the Calendar Subscriptions screen with one team highlighted.
    Tap the team itself — there is no separate copy button, and no way to select several at once.

On iPhone

  1. 1

    Open the Calendar app

    Tap Calendars, then choose Add Subscription Calendar.
    The iPhone Calendars screen with a menu open showing Add Subscription Calendar.
    Add Subscription Calendar is the first item in the menu — not Add Calendar, the one below it.
  2. 2

    Paste the link and tap Find

    Paste your team's link into the Subscription URL box, then tap Find.
    Apple describes these feeds as read-only, which is the point — nobody can change the team's schedule from their own phone.
    The Add Subscription Calendar sheet with a Subscription URL field and a Find button.
    Paste into Subscription URL, then tap Find. Nothing is added until you confirm on the next screen.
  3. 3

    Check the details and confirm

    The title fills in with your team's name and a preview of the next few events appears. Pick an account and colour if you want, then tap the checkmark.
    The confirmation screen showing the calendar title filled in and a preview of upcoming events.
    The title and a preview of your next events fill in on their own. If the preview is empty, the link didn't resolve — go back and paste it again.
Path Calendar app → Calendars → Add Subscription Calendar

What you'll see in your calendar

Events are named after your team, and the calendar arrives already titled with the team and division — you don't need to name it yourself.

If your coach sets an arrival time, each game adds a second entry called Pre game / Arrive that runs up to the start. Two entries for one game is expected, not a duplicate.

Cancelled and postponed events drop out of the feed rather than showing as cancelled. If a game disappears from your calendar, check the app before assuming something is broken.

Questions

Common questions

Why don't I see my team?
Calendar links only exist for teams you're on the roster for. Ask your coach to add you, and the team shows up in Calendar Subscriptions straight away.
Can I subscribe to more than one team?
Yes. Each team has its own link, so tap each team in turn and add each one to your calendar.
My calendar hasn't updated in weeks
Subscribed calendars refresh on a schedule set by your phone or calendar provider, not by Team Sync Up. If it's been more than a day, remove the calendar and add it again with a freshly copied link.
Is this the same as importing an .ics file?
No, and the difference matters. An import is a one-time copy that never changes. A subscription keeps updating, which is why a rained-out game moves on its own.
How long does the link keep working?
A calendar link works for a year. After that it stops updating and you copy a fresh one from Calendar Subscriptions.
How do I remove a calendar?
In the Calendar app, tap Calendars, then the information button beside the team's calendar, and delete it from there. In Google Calendar, hover the calendar under Other calendars and choose Unsubscribe.
