TeamBuilder is mainly used as an easy and highly visual way to create teams against grades, then drag and drop registered players into those teams. TeamBuilder can also be used to allocate Coaches, Managers and other roles to teams.
The starting point is for the Coach or Manager to be registered with your club or school. If Sporty has enabled an official registration form for these roles (or for other non-playing members), you can use that form to register these people. People can register themselves to your form or you can add their details on their behalf (if doing so complies with the rules of your governing body). These people will then be listed in a separate tab in TeamBuilder.
Note: For some sports eg. rugby & rugby league, there is a separate Coach/Manager/Admin registration form. For other sports eg. softball and netball, the registration of Coaches/Managers/Administrators is included as part of the Participant or Players form. In these cases people would select their Role when completing the registration form.
For example, for the sport of rugby:
For example, for the sport of football:
For example, the sport of Rugby League:
Once people are registered through the online forms relating to these databases, they will appear within these tabs in TeamBuilder, so you can drag & drop them into teams in the same way as players.
You can make a person a Manager or Coach by first clicking the blue + beside their name under Roles.
Then selecting Manager/Coach from the options listed.

Note: A Coach, Manager or Volunteer can be added to more than one team. When a person is added to more than one team, they will appear in the TeamBuilder list multiple times - once for each team, and their name will appear in italics.
