In TeamBuilder, it's possible to allocate a person to more than one team, and or to more than one competition. For example, a person may be a player in A Team, and a coach in B Team. Or, if your rules allow it, they may play for a team in one grade and another team in a different grade.
Note: This support article does not apply to all codes as some codes restrict the ability to play in more than one team.
This article includes:
Part A: Adding a person to multiple teams
1. Firstly, drag & drop the person from the player list on the left into a team on the right hand side. It will update their record on the left to show they are in that team and it will set the grade and team name on their record.
2. Click the Entered tab to find the person. Drag & drop them from the Entered list on the left into their second team (e.g. Masters). When you do this, a Move or Add Person pop-up will appear.
Click Move to move the person from Team 1 into Team 2.
Click Add to add the person to another team. A pop-up is displayed to select the role/s that the person should have in the second team.
Select the role/s required and click Add Person and they will appear in both teams.
Depending on the sport, there may be more or less roles available to assign to a person.
The person's record will display twice: once in the standard text font which relates to the original registration, and once in italics to show that this is an additional team that the same person has been entered in.
Part B: Adding people to multiple competitions
All participants (players and non-players) register one time using the same form for the season, for example the Netball Registration 2024 form. Even if the person participates in multiple competitions, for example the Pre season competition and the Senior Competition, they only need to register once. The steps below explain how to add someone to more than one competition.
Example: You have added the player Ginny Blackmore into the Bluebirds team for the Pre season competition 2024 competition. Now you want to add them into another team in a different competition.
We now want to add Ginny into Senior Competition for another team.
1. Select the competition in TeamBuilder.
2. Your view will open on the Entered tab, or on All Registered if nobody has been entered in this competition yet.
3. Click Not Entered. This shows everyone registered on the form who isn’t in this competition yet, including people in teams in other competitions.
4. To see everyone on the form, click All Registered. The Competition column shows which competition each person’s team is in.
This view shows the competition, grade, and team name the person has already been entered into.
5. Open the grade which you'd either like to enter a team against, or that already has the team entered that you want to move the person into. In this example, we have already created the A Team under the Premier grade that we want to move Ginny into.
6. As our Add players to a team article outlines, please add the player you want to move into the additional team by clicking and dragging, or by selecting all those that are in the same team and moving them at once. A pop-up will appear that asks you to confirm whether you would like to Move or Add them to the additional team.
In this example, we click and drag Ginny into the A Team and are presented with the following message. Please note: This is the same message that is received if moving a person into another team in the same competition.
7. Click Add to add the person into the additional team. You will then be asked to select which roles they should have. In this example, we want Ginny to be a player in the A Team.
Click Add Person once you have made your selection.
Please note: If you click Move you will remove the person from the other team or teams that they have been added to, so please be careful.
8. The player that we added into the additional team in the different competition will now show two records, however they appear visually different. See this support article for further information.
Ginny appears twice. Once in standard text which represents her original record in the first team, and the second instance in italics which represents her additional record in the second team.
The view of people that you see are pulled through from the same form/database regardless of which competition it is that you are entering. In the example used above, this is the Netball Registration 2024 form/database. By clicking this drop-down, you can select previous years, or other forms that may be associated to the specific sport.
