Organizer Briefing Script Template

A short, copy-pasteable script organizers can read aloud (or adapt) right before kickoff. It walks participants through the event code, start time, GPS permissions, and what to expect from multiplayer team gameplay — so everyone is set up the same way before the first Checkpoint.

Getting StartedUpdated

How to use this template

Replace each {{PLACEHOLDER}} with your event's details before you run the briefing. The whole script is designed to take about 60 seconds to deliver out loud.

Prefer to fill in a form instead? Use the Organizer Briefing Generator to produce a ready-to-copy script automatically.

  • Confirm the event code with the organizer who published the Experience
  • Confirm the start time and timezone with your venue contact
  • Decide team size and how teams will be formed before kickoff
  • Have a designated support contact in case of join issues

Briefing script

ReadySet Organizer Briefing — Pre-Game Script

Hey everyone, welcome! Before we get started, a quick 60-second rundown so we're all ready to go.

1. Joining the Experience
Open the ReadySet App on your phone and enter the event code: {{EVENT_CODE}}.
No account or password needed — just the code.

2. Start time
We're kicking off at {{START_TIME}} ({{TIMEZONE}}). Please be joined and on the start screen by then. If we're using Ready Set Go mode, everyone starts together — late joiners can still play but may miss the opening Checkpoints.

3. GPS & permissions
When the app asks, please allow Location access — "While Using the App" (or "Always" if prompted).

  • iPhone: Settings → ReadySet → Location → While Using the App, and make sure Precise Location is on.
  • Android: Settings → Apps → ReadySet → Permissions → Location → Allow.

Without GPS, Checkpoints won't activate when you arrive.

4. Teams & multiplayer
You'll be playing in teams of {{TEAM_SIZE}}. Each person plays on their own device, but your scores combine for the team. That means:

  • Stay together as a team — you'll move between Checkpoints as a group.
  • Talk to each other. Many activities are easier (and more fun) when you collaborate.
  • The live leaderboard updates as you go — friendly competition encouraged.

5. A few quick reminders

  • Charge your phone — gameplay runs roughly {{DURATION}}.
  • Stay aware of your surroundings, especially crossing streets.
  • If something doesn't work, find me ({{ORGANIZER_NAME}}) or message {{SUPPORT_CONTACT}}.
