Help for Captains

Create a new team

If you are captaining a brand new team, that team needs to be created in LeagueRunner by a League Coordinator.  Please email our League Coordinator and indicate you are interested in registering a team.  Include your Full Name (matching the full name used in your WODS user account) and your desired team name.  The League Coordinator will then create your team in LeagueRunner and set the appropriate Captain permissions.

Once your team is created, you will be able to edit your team information and input a preferred shirt colour, website and additional information.  You will also be able to manage your team's roster.

Add a co-captain

All teams in the system should have two captains on the team. To mark someone as a team captain or assistant captain, go to the info page for the team, and click on the status next to the person you wish to make co-captain. Select captain or assistant from the list and you're done.

Please note: Each team must have at least one captain and one assistant (or two captains, if you so choose).

Add a player to your team

Rather then waiting for your players to add themselves to your team's roster, you can go out and add them instead. You do this by going to the team info page, and clicking on add player in the left menu. From there you can browse through all the people in the system until you find the person you're looking for. Click on add player and you're done.

Please note: The person you added to your team still has to log in and confirm that they are on your team before the addition is official.

Accept a player on your team

Your players can go onto the system and add themselves to your team. However, you still have to accept them onto your team before they are official members. To do this, go to the team info page and click on the position link next to any player whose status is shown as requested by player. You will have the option of setting the person as a regular player, a substitute, a captain, an assistant, or removing them from the team entirely

Submit game score

One of your most important tasks as a team captain is the timely submission of scores and spirit ratings after a game. To do this click on the team name in the left menu, then click schedule In the schedule view, click on the submit score link next to the game your are submitting. Enter the final score of the game, and the SOTG score for your opponents, and hit submit.

Standings aren't updated until both captains have submitted matching scores. If your score entry and your opponent's don't match, then the coordinator will need to resolve the discrepancy before the final results are reflected in the standings.

Open / close your team to new members

Team rosters can have one of two states: open or closed. If a team is closed, then only the team captain(s) can add new players to their team (still requires player to accept). If a team is open, individuals can add themselves to your team (still requires captain to accept).

To change your team from open to closed (and vice versa) simply go to the info page for your team, click on edit team in the left menu, and select the appropriate new state.
