Last Update: May 3rd, 2023

  1. Go to Programs on the leftside navigation menu
  2. Click View/Search Programs
  3. Select the Program that needs to have teams added i.e. Little League 
  4. Click on the Activity that needs to have teams added
  1. Click on the Teams/Groups Tab
  2. Select Add New Team/Group
  1. Enter the Team Name and Team Seat Cap (if applicable)
  2. Include as Registration Choice allows you/your customers to pick a team during checkout
    • If a team is not chosen, the registrant will be a free agent not yet assigned to a team
    • If this setting is left unchecked, all team assignments will need to be made on the management side by staff
  3. To add coaches to a team, select a Coach/Instructor from the drop-down menu, you can also search by the Coach/Instructor Assignment Type
    • You must mark the individual as a coach for them to appear in the drop-down

Assigning a Coach/Instructor

  1. The instructor must have a public household account with your site
    • They must be a member user in their household
  2. Once they have set up an account, you can make them a coach/instructor
  3. This is done by going to their member page (View/Search Members > click on the Member Name) from the management side

  1. Next, go to the program > activity that you would like them to coach and click on the activity
  2. From the basic info tab, click view/add coaches & instructors (towards the top of the basic info area and to the right) to add them as a coach
    • If you add coaches here at the activity level, they can be given the option to add/edit scores, which coaches added at the team level (in the team/group tab) cannot access
      • Head coaches have more permissions available than other coaches, so be sure to assign the Type from the drop down
        • If you want a coach to have roster access, you must designate the coach as a Head Coach
  1. Just beside the link to add the coaches, you can edit their permissions
    • This allows you to give them access to additional info, like registrant email addresses

Now the coach/instructor can access the rosters and additional info from their public account overview by clicking on the soccer ball icon for rosters.

Repeat steps 1-4 to assign multiple coaches to an activity. Assign coaches at the team level using the Team/Group tab for coaches with fewer permissions. 

  1. Click Submit 
    • This process is repeated until all teams have been created for the activity

Note: If a team is full, Management can override and overfill the team on the management side only. The public does not have this ability.
