Adding people to a team

The Manage Teams feature allows you to add coaches, players, and parents to your teams. 

Notes:

• If your community uses Doodlio's Online Sports Registration to allow parents to register their students for sports, the lists of players available to be placed on teams will consist of those players who have registered for the selected sport. 
• If your community does not use Doodlio's Online Sports Registration, the list of players available to be placed on teams will consist of all students loaded into your community. Click to learn about adding and updating family profiles.

1. Click the Sports Management link on the main dashboard or in the left menu. This will display a sports management dashboard page.

2. Click on the Manage Teams link that appears on the dashboard.

3. Use the drop down at the top of the screen to select the appropriate sport. This will cause your existing teams to appear on the screen.

4. Locate the team that you want to manage and click the Manage link.

Add a Player to a Team

NOTE: If you are using Doodlio's online sports registration, it is often easier to build rosters using the Manage Submissions dashboard instead of following the instructions below.

NOTE: If you are not using Doodlio's online sports registration, you must add the player/family information to your member database before they can be rostered. Click here to learn how to add families to your database.

Click the Roster Details link. Your existing player roster will be displayed.

Click the Add Players link in the upper right corner.

The grade and gender filters will automatically set to the team settings. In other words, if the team is a 6th grade girls team, the grade filter will display 6th Grade and the gender filter will display girls.

You can change the filter to search for students who do not meet the filter criteria. For example, if the current team is a 6th grade team and you have a 5th grader who is playing up a level, adjust the grade filter to 5th grade and click search. 

Select all players that you want to add to the team and then click the "Add" button.

The players and their parents will be added to your team.

Add a Parent, Guardian, or Other Adults to a Team

Adults must be in your Member Database before they can be added to a team. If you are using Doodlio's online registration, the parent who creates enters the registration information has the ability to add parents, grandparents, or others during the registration process. Learn more about other ways adults can be added to your member database.

Parents and other adults who are in the same family are automatically added to teams when their children are added.

To add an adult from your member database:

On the Manage Teams page, click the Manage link for the team to which you want to add parents.

Click on the Parents tab. A list of existing team parents will be displayed. 

Click on the Add Parents button in the upper right.

Enter the last name of the individual that you want to add. You can enter a partial name. Then click Search.

If there are any members of your community who match the search criteria, a list will appear below the search bar. 

Select each individual you want to add to the team.

Click the Add button to add them to your team.

Add a Coach to a Team

Coaches must be in your member database before they can be added to a team. If the coach is a parent, they may have been added during the registration process. Non-parent coaches or others who are not already in your database can be added manually by creating a family account for them. Click here to learn how to manually add families to your database.

Once a coach is in your member database, follow these steps to add them to the team.

On the Manage Team page, click the Coaches tab. A list of existing coaches will be displayed.

Click the Add Coaches button in the upper right.

Enter the last name of the individual that you want to add. You can enter a partial name. Then click Search.

If there are any members of your community who match the search criteria, a list will appear below the search bar. 

Select each individual you want to add to the team.

Click the Add button to add them to your team.
