Athletic Equipment Management
Track athletic gear and equipment as it is checked in and out.
Uniforms and equipment go out in August and come back in pieces. The record of who has what is often a clipboard in the equipment room, and at the end of the season somebody has to work out which jerseys never came home.
SALLIE keeps each team's gear as items handed out to athletes on the roster and taken back, with a log of every step. Set a team's gear up and it starts from that sport's equipment list: jerseys, shorts, warm-ups, helmets and shoulder pads, plus shared things such as a ball bag, cones and a med kit. Add items by number, with a size and a condition. Check an item out to an athlete and it stays out to that person until it is checked in. SALLIE refuses to hand out an item that is already out, lost, retired or in need of repair, and says why.
For football and basketball the team page opens on a checklist: a row for each athlete, a column for each kind of gear, and a count of the athletes who have everything. Handing out a numbered game jersey also sets that athlete's roster number. As the season ends, the coach and the athletic director are shown what is still out, by team and by athlete. Check-outs, check-ins and lost items are logged and can be undone, and nobody is texted about any of it.
