Creating Team Groups
Tip: ‘Team Groups’ is the Age Group of a set of teams, in MyFootballClub this was called ‘Age Group’. Eg. If you have 3x U8s teams, your group would probably be U8
- In the Admin system go to Teams > Team Groups
- At this point you may want to amend the Groups that have already been created for you or create another Group. This guide will follow creation of a new group
- Select ‘Add Team Group’
- Add the name of your group eg. U8
- Tick Status to make the group Active
- Enter a numerical number in Sort Order, this is the order you want to see the groups on the summary screen eg. U6 sort order = 1, U7 sort order = 2, U8 sort order = 3 etc etc
- Save
- Your Group is now created and can be viewed in the Team Management section (Teams > Team Management)
- Follow the same process for the adjustment of a current Team Group
