Sports Facility Hackers
Playbook, implementation sprints, templates, office hours, operator standards, and peer learning.
A Working Implementation Cohort—Not A Passive Community.
The Founders Cohort is for owners and league operators who want to help validate the Sports Facility Hackers playbook, BALL OS workflows, BALLNetwork activation, and the approval-first Operator Intelligence Layer inside real sports operations.
This page is for operators ready to implement, not only read.

Sports Facility Hackers develops the operator. BALLNetwork creates identity and demand. BALL OS runs and verifies the operation. FRIDAY helps the authorized human decide what to do next. The Founders Cohort is where qualified operators help make that loop work inside real buildings and leagues.
Playbook, implementation sprints, templates, office hours, operator standards, and peer learning.
Facility and league profiles, Player Passports, discovery, participation, and provider opportunities.
Courts, booking, leagues, BALLCrew, scoring, scoreboards, records, payments, media surfaces, and BALL Ads.
Permissioned intelligence that explains, recommends, and prepares approved actions without bypassing roles or audit controls.
BALL OS did not begin as a software idea on a whiteboard. It came from operating B.A.L.L.—the Basketball Association Legacy League—and experiencing the scheduling, scoring, communication, content, payment, and facility problems firsthand.
The value is not a login and a chat room. It is a guided implementation relationship around your actual facility or league.
Recognition as one of the first 25 accepted operators, subject to completing the Founders enrollment and applicable agreements.
A prioritized plan based on your operation, current tools, immediate constraint, and the BALL OS workflow that should be validated first.
Private operator-to-operator discussion focused on real execution, lessons, templates, operating questions, and measurable progress.
Group implementation sessions focused on removing operational blockers and keeping the cohort moving through the same activation sequence.
Sponsor-package structures, league-launch checklists, facility workflows, scripts, calculators, and future Playbook updates.
Structured input on BALL OS, BALLNetwork, BALL Ads, BALLCrew, the Connect layer, and the Operator Coach roadmap.
A defined route into the separate BALL OS platform agreement, including onboarding scope and Founder terms documented before activation.
Help shape command briefs, opportunity detection, implementation guidance, and approval-first FRIDAY workflows as they move from direction to release.
Guidance on facility, league, player, and provider identity so BALLNetwork demand can connect to BALL OS operations instead of becoming a static directory.
Founders should not attempt to activate the entire ecosystem at once. The implementation sequence protects the source of truth and proves value one workflow at a time.
Map the operation, current tools, roles, facility or league records, and the highest-value constraint.
Import or establish clean identity and choose one BALL OS workflow: booking, Pickup, official scoring, league administration, or sponsor delivery.
Confirm the court, game, payment, statistic, sponsor delivery, and public record remain consistent—including corrections.
Add the next revenue, demand, workforce, or intelligence workflow only after the first loop is dependable.
The Founders seat and BALL OS platform are related, but they are not the same purchase.
The platform agreement covers the software workflows activated for the facility or league. Pricing, included usage, implementation scope, add-ons, and any Founder rate protection are documented separately before launch.
The Founders Box and physical recognition materials are intended to make the relationship visible inside the facility—not to substitute merchandise for implementation value.
Planned recognition materials may include a numbered Founder certificate, printed Playbook, facility crest, onboarding card, and related cohort items. Final contents, production timing, and shipping details are confirmed during enrollment.
Physical items are secondary to the implementation program and may vary based on final production.
The application collects the information needed to evaluate fit. Accepted operators review the cohort terms and the separate BALL OS platform path before any paid enrollment or activation.
Share your facility or league, authority, current operation, and implementation priorities.
Confirm that the cohort can support the operation and that the operator can actively participate.
Review the $997 cohort seat and the separate BALL OS platform terms before activation.
Limited to 25 accepted operators. No guaranteed financial results. Product status is disclosed by workflow.
