How Do I Create a Director Role and Assign Permissions?

Add Directors and tailor their access to fit your organization's needs. Grant full or restricted access to seasons and groupings, control team gender visibility, and optionally enable communication permissions.

Full Admins can create and manage Directors and assign them to specific competitions, seasons, and team genders. Follow the steps below to add and manage permissions for a Director:

1. From the navigation, select Settings > Permissions > Directors.

2. Click Add Director and fill out the required fields.

  • Note: If the user already exists in the OTTO Sport platform, you will be prompted to add the existing user to prevent duplicates. You can do this by entering the existing user’s information in the Email or Universal ID fields.

3. Select the Director’s Permissions:

  • Can access ALL Seasons and Groupings (top-level Teams permissions): Allows the director to access all teams within the Teams product for all Competitions and all Seasons. You can also configure options that allow the director to view teams by gender (all, male, female).

  • Can access RESTRICTED Seasons or Groupings: Allows director access to the Teams product for select seasons or groupings within seasons. Click into the Seasons/Groupings box to choose which seasons and/or groupings the director will have access to.

  • Can access Communications: Allows directors to use the Communication product to send messages to Parents/Players or Staff who participate in their Competition/League.

4. Once the director's permissions have been added, the user will receive an automated email informing them of their new role with a link to log in and start viewing their assigned season(s)/ grouping(s).

5. To edit or remove an existing director, click on the edit icon or the delete icon.
