Creating Teams
- When creating Teams for your competition, you should include your Club name (or abbreviation of Club name) in the team setup. This assists Competition Managers assigning your team to a competition and participants wanting to follow your team(s) in the Rugby Xplorer app.
- You need to create a team for every age group, grade and/or weight restriction that your Club is participating in.
- Entities > Teams
- Note, when you click on the Teams page (Entities > Teams) it will default to show 'Club Teams' only. You can choose to show only 'Rugby Event Teams' and/or both Club Teams and Rugby Event Teams.
