Team Search: Requesting and Approving Membership

Family, players, and fans are able to search the GameChanger Team Manager database for existing teams to join! They can request access to a team through this feature, and once their request has been approved, the team will be added to their account. Team Staff will not be able to request membership through the search and will instead need to be added by the current Team Staff.

Requesting Membership (Family/Players/Fans)

1. Tap the search icon in the top left of the Teams tab in the app
2. Begin typing your team’s name. It may be helpful to include location if there are a large number of hits on the search.
3. Select the correct version of the team
4. Tap the Join Team button
5. Specify if you are a parent, player, or fan
6. Choose the correct player profile from the roster if joining as a parent or player
7. Until your request is approved, your status will be listed as Pending, and you will have Fan level access to the team 

Approving Membership (Team Staff, Family, Players)

Team Staff and existing Family/Players in the app will need to approve any membership requests before the requester is able to access team content. Please note that requests will be sent to the account(s) with the highest level of player profile ownership (Active Player > Active Family Member > Team Staff). For example, if a player is active in GameChanger Team Manager, any family membership requests would need to be handled by that player. However, if the player does not have a GameChanger Team Manager account or family active in the app, requests would be handled by Team Staff.
