Can I Automatically Sort Registrants into Age Groups Based on Their Date of Birth?

Use birthdate range eligibility to place registrants in the correct age group during registration automatically. Combine with gender, grade, or custom field eligibility for even more precise grouping control.

You can set up registration eligibility in several ways, including gender, date-of-birth range, and custom fields like grade, region, school, zip code, etc.

To set up your eligibility by birth year, follow the steps below:

  • Navigate to the Season Structure for the season you want to work with

  • Expand the structure so you can see each age group in the structure

  • Edit the first age group in the structure

  • Select the appropriate gender, if applicable

  • Set the dates in the "Birthdate Range" fields

  • Save and repeat for each Age Group in the structure

  • Adding the Birthdate Range will auto-place players into their appropriate group upon registration


In the example below, we've edited the 2011 age group to add the birthdate range 01/01/2011 through 12/31/2011 in the Grouping Eligibility area. All registrants born within this range will automatically be placed in the 2011 grouping.

Note: This age group can also be named "U14" - depending on how your organization refers to each age group.
