Question 1

What is Path2Playoffs?

Accepted Answer

Path2Playoffs is a mobile app for competitive youth soccer. It gives you up-to-date standings sorted by points-per-game, playoff clinch and elimination scenarios, team schedules with travel distances, what-if predictions, and AI-powered weekly audio briefings — all in one place.

Question 2

Is Path2Playoffs free?

Accepted Answer

The app is free to get started. The Free tier includes standings, schedules, scores, search, basic notifications, and 1 saved team. Pro is $59.99/year — and if you subscribe during the launch window, that price is yours for life. Pro unlocks unlimited saved teams, the full Playoff Picture, advanced playoff probability analysis, match predictions, the what-if scenario builder, and more. Episode credits for personalized weekly recaps are a separate add-on that anyone can buy, and Pro members pay a lower price.

Question 3

Which leagues and conferences do you cover?

Accepted Answer

We cover ECNL and MLS NEXT. On the ECNL side that means ECNL, ECNL Regional League, and Pre-ECNL, for girls and boys. On the MLS NEXT side it means the Academy Division and the Allstate Homegrown Division. Every conference, U13 through U19. Which features are available can vary by age group and conference, depending on what each league publishes. If your league isn't listed, email support@path2playoffs.com — what people ask for is what we add next.

Question 4

How accurate is the data?

Accepted Answer

Our data comes from publicly available league sources and is kept up to date throughout the season. Clinch and elimination scenarios are mathematically computed from every possible remaining outcome — not estimates or guesses.

Question 5

How often is data updated?

Accepted Answer

Our data is kept up to date throughout the season, so the standings and playoff picture you see reflect the latest results we have.

Question 6

Does the app work offline?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All data syncs to your device using a local database. Once synced, you can check standings, schedules, and playoff scenarios without any internet connection — perfect for when you're at the fields.

Question 7

What are the AI weekly briefings?

Accepted Answer

Typically each Wednesday during the season, Path2Playoffs can generate a personalized 10–15 minute, 3-voice audio recap of your team's week — results, standings changes, upcoming matches, and key games to watch. Personalized episodes are unlocked with episode credits (purchased singly or in bundles), which anyone can buy — no subscription required, and Pro members pay a lower price. One credit covers one episode in one language, and episodes not yet made are typically ready within about 24 hours. A universal sample episode is free for everyone.

Question 8

How do what-if predictions work?

Accepted Answer

You can simulate match outcomes and instantly see how they change the standings and playoff picture. Want to know what happens if your team wins and a rival loses? Tap in the results and the app recalculates everything — standings, PPG, clinch numbers — in real time.

Question 9

Is this an official league app?

Accepted Answer

No. Path2Playoffs is an independent app built by a soccer parent. We use publicly available data from league websites to compute standings, playoff scenarios, and more. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any league.
