Full Admins, Schedulers, and Commissioners with permissions can edit the teams playing in a game when managing seasonal games. The option for editing teams streamlines schedule changes and eliminates the need to delete and recreate games if teams need to be changed for a match.
1. When viewing games on the Game Schedules report, locate the game you wish to update and select the Edit Game Settings button.
2. The current home and away teams will be displayed for the game. To change a team, click on the team name and select a new one from the drop-down menu. Teams in the same grouping as the original team will be displayed in the drop-down menu.
3. Once a team is selected, the system will check for conflicts to ensure there is no overlap based on the date, time, and location of any existing games or trainings. Once complete, click Save.
4. Upon Saving:
Mobile app users on the affected teams will receive a push notification to inform them that there has been a change to their event.
Push notifications are sent to team members of the team that was removed.
Push notifications are sent to team members of the team that was added
If a team is removed from the game, the game will no longer show for that team within the Schedules product, on the Team page, or on the mobile app.
If a team is added to the game, the game will show with the Schedules product, on the Team page, and the mobile app.
5. All other areas where game information is displayed will show the updated team names, i.e., all system calendars, Game Reports, and within the Referees product.
