Leave a team, or delete one

Leaving hands back your access and keeps every at-bat you recorded; deleting removes the team for everybody and still keeps the games, the at-bats and the season.

These are two different buttons for two different problems, and they get muddled because they sit next to each other. Leaving is about you: you stop being on this team and nobody else notices much. Deleting is about the team: it goes for everybody, and only the person who created it can do it at all. Neither one deletes a real player's at-bats — not yours, not anybody's.

Leaving is exactly the same thing as being taken off the roster by the team's creator — the app runs the identical soft removal either way, so everything that article says applies to a departure you chose. Your access goes: the team drops off your Teams list, you cannot open it, and nobody can pick you in the batter picker any more. Your at-bats stay: every one of them is still in your own stats, untouched, and they are still in the team's season table on a greyed row tagged Former, still counted in the team's totals, because you really did get those hits for this team.

It is also not final, unless you are the last member. Then the team has nobody left, so leaving deletes it and its roster-only players' at-bats too, and the box says so and counts them before you confirm. Otherwise the invite code is not revoked by your leaving, so joining with it again puts you back where you were — your old at-bats were never anywhere else, and the team asks you the player-or-coach question afresh for the new stint.

On your phone

  1. Open the Teams tab, open the team, and go to its Members segment.
  2. Leave Team is the red button at the very foot of that list.
  3. The alert names the team and says your at-bats will be preserved. Tap Leave.
  4. This one needs a connection rather than queueing: with no signal the app says "You need an internet connection to leave a team." and leaves your membership alone.

On the web

  1. Open the team and click Members.
  2. Scroll to the Team settings block at the foot of the tab and click Leave Team. It is there for every member, the team's creator included — your own row in the roster never offers it.
  3. The box says: Are you sure you want to leave "your team"? Your at-bats will be preserved. Click Leave to confirm, and the website takes you back to your Teams list.

Two things about leaving that surprise people. If you created the team, leaving does not hand the creator's two powers — deleting the team, and taking a member off it — to anybody else; they stay with the account that made the team, so if the team later needs deleting you have to rejoin with the code and do it yourself. And if you are the last active member, your leaving retires the team as well, exactly as deleting it would, because a team with nobody on it is not something anyone can get back into. Its roster-only players and their at-bats go with it.

Deleting is the creator's button, and it is worth being plain about what it does and does not reach, because the fear of it is what leaves dead teams on people's lists. It removes the team for every member at once. It does not touch the games, and it does not touch a single at-bat recorded by a real player — a team is a grouping and a permission boundary in this app, not the owner of anybody's data. It does not delete the team's seasons either, so a game filed under Spring 2026 still says Spring 2026 afterwards.

What does go with it: the team itself, its roster-only players, and the at-bats recorded under those names. Those are placeholders that only ever existed as part of this team, so there is nowhere for them to go — if somebody on the roster has been keeping score for a teammate who never installed the app, get that teammate to claim their spot before the team is deleted and those at-bats become theirs instead.

On your phone

  1. Open the Teams tab and open the team. The bin in the top right-hand corner of the header, beside the pencil, is the delete — and it is drawn only for the account that created the team.
  2. Tap it. The alert is headed Delete Team. It says games and members' at-bats stay, and counts the at-bats and roster-only players that go with the team. If there are any, Invite players is offered first, so they can claim their stats before you decide.
  3. Tap Delete team. With no signal the app says "You need an internet connection to delete a team." and nothing is removed.

On the web

  1. Open the team, click Members, and find the Team settings block at the foot of the tab. Delete Team is the last item in it — if it is not there, you did not create this team, and the person who did is the only one who can.
  2. Click Delete Team. The box spells out the whole of it: games and members' at-bats stay, and it counts the at-bats and roster-only players that go with the team. If there are any, Invite players is offered first, so they can claim their stats before you decide.
  3. Click Delete team. A "Team deleted" message confirms it and the website returns you to your Teams list.

Afterwards, each member keeps the games they have at-bats in, and whoever created a game keeps it whatever happens to the team. Those games still carry their date, opponent, score and season, and their box scores and spray charts still read. What is gone is the team view of them — there is no team page left to open, so the season table, the leaders strip and the team spray chart go with it. A game that you were on the roster for but never batted in is the one that drops off your list, because there is no longer a team to reach it through.

Neither app undoes a deletion, so it is worth a second's thought about which problem you actually have. A roster that has drifted wants a member removed, not a team deleted; a team whose name or crest is wrong wants the name or the crest changed; and a team you personally are done with wants Leave Team, which leaves the thing standing for everybody else.
