1. Drag & drop players into a team

Once you have set up a team, you can simply drag & drop players into it.

Open the competition in TeamBuilder your team is entered into.

Hover over a registrant, click and drag & drop them onto the top of a team icon. You can click on the Team to open it and see that the person has been added to the team. 

Note: You can change the database that your displayed registrants are pulling from by clicking the drop-down beside the word People and selecting an alternative database.

Note: if the player registration for associated to the team has fields which have not been answered by the registrant previously, the registration form will open automatically to allow you to enter the required information.

You can close this pop-up requesting further information, however the registrant will be flagged to show that there is further action required before they are okay to play.

Click the magnifying glass against the players name from the In a team view on the left to return to the form so that it can be updated.

The registrant will be flagged with a ! beside their name in their Team, as well they will be displayed in red until they have been actioned according to the requirements of the flag.

Click the ! to learn more about the further action that is required. Sending the registrant an email to update their details will only allow them to update their contact details as the additional fields required to be completed by the administrator are admin only.

Selecting people from other related databases

You can select people from prior years or from related forms such as a coach/manager or volunteer form, into the current season by changing the database/season displayed on screen. Do this by clicking the form name in shown in the image below - there is a drop-down field beside the text "People". If you are a school, you may see your School Roll appearing here, this allows you to directly drag & drop students from the roll into teams.

For the likes of Football or Futsal, click this drop-down and change the people view from the Football Player Registration form to a different related database. This is how you will add your coaches, managers, volunteers and administrators into teams. This drop-down also allows you to select players from previous seasons.

2. Add multiple people to the team

You can add multiple people to the team at once by ticking the checkboxes next to their names, then selecting Move X Players to Team. 

You can use the tools in the blue bar at the top to help you filter, search or sort your database to make grouping people for team selection easier.  For example, you could filter on year of birth or grade to further refine your list.

3. Add New Player

1. Open your team in TeamBuilder
2. Click +Add Team Member
3. A registration form will be opened in a pop-up window
4. Fill in and submit the registration form
5. The new person will be added to the team

4. Invite players to register directly to the team

Team Managers can send a unique link to people for them to register directly to their team. Note: This feature may be disabled depending on the sport. If you are unsure, please check with your competition organiser.

This link can be copied and sent to players via any communication method like Facebook, making it quick and easy for players to be added to the team. This removes the need for a team manager or administrator to collect personal details from players and ensures the correct details are entered.

Further notes:

• Adding a registrant to multiple teams: Some sports do not allow this. If you are unsure, please check with your competition organiser.
• When dragging a student from the School Roll into a team, the linked registration form to the competition will automatically be populated with the students known details. Any details that aren't known will need to be entered to complete their registration.
