MyClubMate – Allocating Players to Teams
MyClubMate provides clubs with the ability to allow Players, Team Officials and whole Teams to Register Online.
Each club is different, but MyClubMate supports a flexible environment that allows each club to operate the way they
want to, not the way we want them to. So you can enable or disable any of these registration options as you see fit.
This document explains how players can be put into their respective teams. It will cover registering complete Teams,
but the other Online Registration options are not covered in this document.
There are 4 ways in which players can be allocated to teams, all of which are shown below.
1: Online Registrations for whole Teams
2: Allocating a specific player to a team
3: Allocating a number of players to a specific Team
4: Drag and Drop any player into any team within a specific Age Group
1: Online Registrations for whole Teams
Allowing Players to register online can save the club volunteers a large amount of time and effort, and can also
drastically reduce the number of people turning up at club registration days. As well as Players registering Online,
clubs can also allow whole Teams to register online if they choose to. Many 5 or 6 a side competitions do this as a
matter of course, and some clubs allow this for their main registrations to encourage teams that want to all play
together.
The number of players that can be
registered with the team can be different
for different Age Groups – you set it.
Invited players are automatically sent an
email by the system with a link to accept
or decline the invite. If the player accepts
and completes the registration, the player
is automatically put into the team by the
system.

There is literally nothing for the registrar to
do for these types of players!!! The Team
Manager can even check and record the
Players ID and upload the players’ photos.

2: Allocating a specific Player to a Team
If you are dealing with a specific person, or already looking or updating a person’s profile, you can put that
person into a team there and then (assuming they are a current player).
You can see below and left that the
player has been put into the team
M351. Optionally, because the Age
Group M35 is actually a Squad, you can
also specify if the player normally
plays in the Firsts or Reserves, or, if
they often play in both teams.

The advantage of using this method of
allocating a player to a team is that
you can also update other information
about the player at the same time.

3: Allocating a number of players to a specific Team
The third method of putting players into teams is by team. List the teams you have in MyClubMate by clicking
on the Team Admin button, and you will get a screen similar to the one below.
From here you can
quickly perform various
functions such as Editing
the team details, Adding
or Removing Team
Officials, Adding or
Removing Players, viewing
and uploading Players
Photos and Signatures
and more. However, in
this document we are
only concerned with
adding Players to the
team, so click on the icon
of a player.
You can see that the system tells
you how many players you currently
have in the team, and the maximum
number of players that are allowed
to be in the team.
In the left column are the players
currently in the team.
You just highlight the player(s) –
support shift and cntl – and then
click Add or Remove as required.
When you are ready, click Update.

In the right column is a list of
players that are allowed to play in
this team, but haven’t yet been
assigned to any team.

4: Drag and Drop any player into any team within a specific Age Group
The fourth method MyClubMate gives you is the ability to literally drag and drop players into whatever Team you
choose within a particular Age Group. Considering MyClubMate automatically puts players into the correct Age Group
when the players register online and marks the players as Paid when they pay online with their credit card, there isn’t
much else to do apart from allocating the Team Officials (Team Managers and Coaches).
To get to this function, click on Age Groups and then against the Age Group you are interested in, click on the player
icon and you will get a screen a little like this….
On the left, you have a list of players in this Age Group, who are not yet in a team.
On the right, all the teams, with all the players currently in those teams.
You can drag and drop players within teams, drag players out of a team, and drag players into a team.
And it even supports players playing in 2 teams.
You specify the maximum number of players allowed in teams within this Age Group and the system will ensure you
don’t add too many players to one team!!
There are 4 different ways players can be put into teams. You can do it at the Age Group Level, the Team Level, or
the individual level, or you can just allow Team Managers to manage it all themselves.
YOU CHOOSE what suits you and your club best.
All 4 functions do fundamentally the same thing with the same end result – putting a player into a team.
