How to Send an SMS Message

A simple guide for sending SMS messages

Omahji lets you send SMS text messages to your players right from the instructor portal. Use it for game reminders, schedule changes, or announcements.

How to Send a Message

  1. From the sidebar, click Messages or SMS
  1. Click New Message
  1. Select your recipients:
      • All players β€” Message everyone on your roster
      • Specific players β€” Select individual players from your list
      • Game registrants β€” Message everyone registered for a specific game
  1. Type your message
  1. Click Send

The message will be sent as an SMS text to each selected player's phone number.

⚠️

Note: SMS messages can only be sent to players who have a phone number on file. Make sure to collect phone numbers when adding players to your roster.

Tips for Effective Messages

  • Keep it short β€” SMS messages work best when they're brief and to the point
  • Include key details β€” Date, time, and location if you're sending a game reminder
  • Send timely reminders β€” A message the day before a game helps reduce no-shows
  • Use templates for messages you send often (see Using SMS Templates)
