The KAMAR integration with Sporty provides several useful features to site administrators to help to make admin easier.
To integrate Sporty with KAMAR requires a one time process to connect. Please see this article here for instructions.
With the KAMAR-Sporty integration, you can see your school roll directly and any key student details that have been shared between the two platforms. This means that team construction has been simplified as you can now drag your pupils directly from the school roll, into a team in Sporty TeamBuilder which will create a record against that pupil. Their record will display their registration form that has been auto-populated with their known details. If the form requires any further details, they will be requested before the pupil can be marked as active.
This article includes:
- KAMAR fields that can be enabled
- Payment Reports
- KAMAR auto-population of CRM
- Building teams in TeamBuilder
- KAMAR Calendar & KAMAR Notices
KAMAR fields that can be enabled
Sporty can pull the below fields directly from KAMAR once the connection has been established.
- Name
- Date of Birth
- Gender
- Phone number
- Photo
- Ethnicity
- Tutor
- Enrolment date
- Leaving date
- Year level
- Parent details
- Next of kin
Below is an example of how some of these fields will display when selected on your Online Form.
How to enable key fields
You first must have connected KAMAR to Sporty. Please see this article here on how to do this.
Make KAMAR fields Admin Only
The KAMAR fields mentioned above can be set to be Admin Only. Setting fields to Admin Only, only allows for logged in site administrators to view this information and also allows for a report to be exported that contains this data.
Tick the checkbox for Admin Only. Ensure you save the form before exiting.
Autopopulate KAMAR fields
When a student registers with your organisation, Sporty will automatically populate the following KAMAR fields in the registration form at submission if a matching person is found on your Student Roll with the same name and Date of Birth. These fields will be populated only if they are present as Admin Only fields on the registration form:
- Tutor
- Enrolment date
- Leaving date
- Year level
Payment Reports
Once KAMAR is connected, when the payment report is run it will export the KAMAR fields as well.
For further help with Payment Reports over a date range, please see this support article.
SuperCRM Auto-population
Once integrated, you can request for the KAMAR Students Superform to be applied to your site.
This form communicates with your KAMAR database and will sync with Sporty once per year to bring through student records into your SuperCRM. Please note that this form only brings through the specific fields that have been noted above. The exception to this once per year sync is if a new student enrolls, then a sync will occur only bringing through their details, any updates to pre-existing students will not be updated in Sporty. You can then create and apply filters in your SuperCRM based on your roll.
To request for this Superform to be applied, please contact support@sportsground.com.
Please note that any changes made in Sporty will not feed back into KAMAR.
For further information in relation to the SuperCRM, please see this support article.
Building teams in TeamBuilder
1. Once your KAMAR connection has been enabled, you will see SCHOOL Roll tab in TeamBuilder that is populated by your KAMAR roll.
Note that it may take up to 24 hours for your SCHOOL Roll tab in TeamBuilder to be populated.
2. Click on a student on the left from your roll, and drag them to a team on the right. Drop the student into the team to create a registration record against that student. You can also select multiple students and click Move X People to Team.

Note: If your registration form has additional question fields for data that is not known to KAMAR, the system will present a registration form with the known details pre-filled and the unknown fields left blank, so you simply need to complete the missing details for the record.
