Sending A SMS Message

Inside the DNA Soccer Lab Team app web experience, you have the ability to deliver SMS messages to your program.

​

​

Note: This feature is only 1-way communication. People in your program will be able to receive SMS messages, but they will not be able to send SMS messages back. We encourage the use of the Chat feature on the mobile app for this.
