How to create squads and teams

 How to create squads:

Before you can create teams, you’ll need to set up squads – teams are grouped under squads.

Creating squads

• Navigate to Product management > Products
• Click the 'Add product' button at the top-right of your screen
• Choose ‘Product’ and ‘Squad’
• Give the squad a name, such as ‘Under 11s’
• Add the product to an existing squads product group, if you have one (leave blank if you do not)
• In ‘Details’, ensure the squad status is ‘Public’
• You can then assign the squad settings such as consents and forms, which will be required from the members on sign-up

How to create teams:

Once you’ve set up your squads, you can start adding individual teams within them. For example, the Under 11s squad may have a First team and Second team, or a Blue team and White team.

• Navigate to Teams > Player management
• Select a squad from the left sidebar
• Click ‘Create team’
• Give the team a name and colour
• Click ‘Create’ to finish

Once your squads and teams are set up, you can start adding players – see our full guide here.
