Registration process for the Austin Fall Cup

We have received some questions about the registration process.  Below are the full details.

 

To register your players for the Austin Fall Cup they must first be on your team.  To get players on your team you simply add their first name, last name and email address to the system.  Once you have done this you can then register them for the tournament.  Once you do this they will show up on your tournament roster.

Adding Players to your team

1) Go to your teams page.  You can find this by clicking on the “Team” icon at the top of the website and then selecting your team.

 

2) Click on the ‘Manage Team’ button.

 

3) Click on the ‘Players’ tab if you are not there already.  To add a new player click the blue ‘+ Add New Player(s)’ button.

First name and last name are the only required fields.  If you include the email address then your player will receive an invitation to connect with the team.  This will allow them to RSVP for matches, view the schedule, etc.  If you are adding more than five players you can click on the + Add More link at the bottom and more rows will be available for you to add additional players.

 

Registering Players

1) click on the ‘Registrations’ tab and then select ‘Austin Fall Cup Player Registration’ from the drop down.  Players in white have not been registered.  Player in green have been registered.  A pending status means that the tournament director needs to activate the player.

 

2) Once you have selected the right players, click on the ‘Register Players’ button.  You will see a confirmation box.  Click submit again and your done.

 

A registration fee of $5.00/player applies to players who are not registered with a USSF affiliated organization.  Therefore if your players are not registered with the United States Specialty Sports Association, North Texas Soccer Association, the Texas State Soccer Association South or any other USSF affiliate league let us know and AMSA will register your players with USSF.  This is a liability requirement.  Don’t let the $5.00 fee prevent you from registering your players.   Only players which are registered will show up on your tournament roster

Updates to adding and registering players

Ateamo allows you to run your team how you see fit.  You may have players which come out to practice and make a few games a season but you also have die hards which get to each game 30 minutes early.  Ateamo provides flexibility with your roster by seperating players on your team from those that are registered with a league, tournament or other association.

We have published an update which gives captains more control over the players on their team and thus league rosters.

Adding Players to Your Team

Previously, when you wanted to add a player to your team you would send an email invitation to the new player through Ateamo.  Once the player responded, joined the team and completed their profile they would show up on your team’s page and will then receive all team communication.  While this is the ideal scenario, we have now updated this process so that the player (whether they have an existing Ateamo account or not) will be immediately added to your team as a Pending player.  Pending players will show up on your team’s page, league rosters (if they are registered) and event RSVP’s.  However, these players will not receive any communication or be able to participate in any team communication until they accept the invitation. Once they do your team will be added to their account like any other team.

Why the update?  Our goal is to make Ateamo the easiest way to manage a team, get out and play and moreover avoid paywork, delays and procedural errors.  We can now do this by adding the player to your team as soon as you do.  This will cut down on registration time as Captains can now add a player and register them without having to wait on the player to do something.

To add a player, go to your teams page, scroll down to the ‘Active Players’ widget and click the ‘+ Add Players’ button (You can also get to this from the team manager).

Once the Add Players window loads, enter as much information about the player and/or players as you have.  The only required fields are First Name and Last Name.  We encourage you to enter the players email.  We can then send them an invitation or connect you to an exhisting player with the same email.  If you need to add more that then space allows, click the ‘Add More’ link to add a new row of fields.

Please note that adding a player is not the same as registering.  The player must be on your team in order to be registered.  You can have players on your team that are not registered with a league or association.

 

Registering Players with a League, Tournament or Association

Once your team has completed it’s registration and a player registration is required, you will see a link to Register Players on your teams page.

This will link you to a  list of the active and pending players for your team.  You can review the list to check the registration status, payment status, etc.  If you have a player who’s checkbox is not checked this means that the player is not active.  Click the checkbox then scroll down and click on the ‘Register Players’ button.  Select the appropriate fee and your done.

You can come back to this same page at any time to check the status of your players registration or register more players.

New Print Roster link location

We have received feedback that the location to print your rosters was not clear.  We updated this today and hopefully this will solve the issue.  The rosters are now below the team details.  They are labeled with the league and season name.

Where do I make a payment?

Ateamo should make the process of paying for your player or team registration as simple as possible. We have made a number or improvements for how these payments are handled. Today we released an additional update which will give you a very noticeable notification when you have outstanding payment requests. You will now see a large orange bar at the bottom of your page whenever you have an outstanding, un-paid item. You should see something like the image below.

IE7 Users…we have made updates

For our users which may have visited Ateamo using Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) this week…you noticed that there were some issues with the site. We have spent time this week working through additional bug fixes. Please take a peek now and let us know how we did.

Why did we not do this prior to our beta launch? Well, our analytics showed that a very small fraction of our users were actually using IE7. However, most of these users it seems are at work and don’t have the ability to upgrade their browser. That sucks but we understand. Hopefully you can get into the site now and find your games.

I encourage everyone who is using Internet Explorer to make sure that they upgrade to IE9. While still not on par with Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox, your browsing experience will be faster, safer and more enjoyable. We will be using HTML5 extensively and future releases which requires a modern browser.

Registration Changes

Over the last several years we have been collecting feedback from our captains about how the registration process can be simplified. The request we heard over and over was that captains should be the ONLY ones that can register a player. We previously allowed players who were already on the team to register themselves. The problem was that rosters change from season to season and the captains wanted to prevent players from being able to do this.

This change was rolled out with the latest release.

Now, captains must register the players. You can still select how the player’s registration fee will be paid, either by the captain or by the player. If you request that the registration fee be paid by the captain the player will never see this due item. This gives you the flexibility to request any team fees from them. If you include a portion of the team registration fee and/or referee fee with your team’s fee you can collect this all at once and then pay for the player once YOU have been paid. You have the control over when this players registration is processed.

Ultimately, our goal was to make the registration process streamlined and simpler. Let us know your thoughts and shoot us some feedback.
