Key takeaways for MOJO Sports
Where is it heading?
The youth sports management market is consolidating around administrative-heavy platforms that integrate directly with league registration. MOJO's current maintenance-mode cadence leaves it exposed to churn if it cannot resolve basic authentication failures and differentiate its coach-first experience from the administrative utility of rivals.
- Persistent authentication loops in the latest update prevent coach access, which directly erodes the daily active habit and drives negative sentiment.
- The current maintenance-mode release cadence lacks the feature velocity required to challenge SportsEngine's entrenched league-level infrastructure.
The SWOT
- Exclusive content partnerships with professional leagues create high switching costs for volunteer coaches.
- Localized tournament-management tools could capture high-traffic weekend engagement currently dominated by SportsEngine.
Next best moves
Rebuild authentication flow because login failures are the top-reported barrier to accessing team data → stabilize retention.

Digital scorebook (available in SportsEngine but missing here)
Since the last report: Development activity has effectively stalled, with the time since the last update increasing from 56 to 127 days, while persistent authentication loops have become the primary driver of negative user sentiment.
Bottom line
Resolving the authentication loop is the single most effective way to stem the current decline in user sentiment. Once access is reliable, the team must pivot away from aggressive upselling to protect the coach-first experience that differentiates MOJO from administrative rivals.
