How to Add Officials

Adding Officials (Referees & Scorekeepers)

Officials need to be added to the system before they can be assigned to games. Here’s how to do it:

---

Step 1: Make Sure the Official Has an Account

1. Go to People > People in your dashboard.

2. Search for the person’s name.

   • If they don’t appear, click Create a New Account.

3. Enter their First Name, Last Name, and Email Address.

   • ⚠️ An email address is important for officials. They will receive automatic emails when they are assigned to games so they can confirm availability.

Step 2: Add Them as an Official

1. Go to League > Officials.

2. Click Add an Official.

3. Fill out the form:

   • Member: Select the person from the dropdown.

   • Official Type: Choose Referee, Linesman, or another role.

   • Status: Set to Active (only active officials can be scheduled).

4. Click Create Official.

✅ Done! The official is now part of your league and can be assigned to games.

⚡ Tip: If you ever need to pause an official (vacation, injury, etc.), just change their Status to Inactive instead of deleting them.
