🔗Share your league
Every league you create gets its own address at /s/ followed by a short id. Anyone with the link can read the page — no login, no app, nothing to install, and nothing to pay. It works the moment the league exists.
Step by step
- 01
Open it yourself first
Press Share link in the editor and open it. It is the fastest way to catch a column nobody needs or a sort order that ranks the table wrong, and it is exactly what everyone else will see.
- 02
Check Visibility
On the Settings tab, Public — visible to anyone with the share link controls whether the page is live. Untick it to take the page down temporarily without deleting anything; the editor shows a Hidden badge while it is off.
- 03
Copy the link
Press Share link at the top of the editor and the address is copied to your clipboard. Paste it into your team chat, your email to parents, or your league’s website.
- 04
Or print the QR code
Press QR code for a scannable version, and Download PNG to save it. Organizers put it on dugout signs, rink boards and the back of a schedule handout, so nobody has to type a URL.
What visitors see
Whichever of the three tables you have enabled, in the order and sort you set, with your colours and font. The schedule carries filter dropdowns for any text column with more than one value. There is no login wall, no ad, and no account prompt.
The link is read-only. Nobody who has it can change your data, and nobody needs an account to read it.
Knowing whether anyone is looking
Your dashboard shows a view count per league, and the number of views in the last week. Views are counted without cookies and without identifying anyone — no IP, no user agent, nothing stored about a visitor. The trade is that it counts views rather than people: one parent refreshing six times during a game is six views. Bots and your own visits while signed in are filtered out.
Keeping the same link all season
The share id does not change when you edit the page, rename the league, or add a table. A QR code printed in week one still works in week twenty. It changes only if you create a different league — which is why duplicating a league for a new season gives you a new link, and editing last season’s in place keeps the old one.
Common questions
- Do viewers need an account?
- No. That is the point of the link. Players, parents and spectators open it and read it, on a phone or a laptop, with no sign-up of any kind.
- Can I take the page down?
- Yes. Untick Public under Settings and the page stops resolving for everyone. Tick it again to bring it back. Your data is untouched either way.
- Is the page indexed by Google?
- Share pages are public in the sense that anyone with the link can read them. If you want yours found by name, link to it from your league’s own website — that is what search engines follow.
- Does sharing cost anything?
- No. Every league gets a public page, free, with no limit on how many people open it. Those pages carry advertising, and that is what pays for Simple Standings. If you would rather yours did not, $9.99 USD once takes the ads off that league permanently — it changes nothing else.
