You need an invitation link or code from the President or a Manager.
Step by step
- Open the link. When the roster has a place, or when the invitation is for a known substitute, you see the team and 1 action, depending on where you open it:
- Inside the app: Join the team.
- In the browser on an Android or iOS phone: Get the app and join.
- In any other browser at phone width: Continue in the browser.
- If you were sent only the code, choose I was invited to a team when you start and paste it into Invitation link or code. The same team screen opens. When there is a place, or when it is a known-substitute invitation, you tap Join the team.
- When you join, you see the welcome screen for the team, with actions such as View the team.
Good to know
- Links are valid for 24 hours.
- The roster holds up to 30 people: the President, Managers, starters and substitutes. Known substitutes do not take up roster places.
- A known-substitute invitation works for one person only, and it still works when the roster has 30 people.
- If you are already on the team, the app just carries on, including when the roster is full.
If something goes wrong
- If you see This link no longer leads anywhere, the link does not work: it expired, the President or a Manager replaced it, someone already used the known-substitute invitation, or its President deleted the team. Ask the President or a Manager for a link that still works. Go to Home takes you back to the start.
- At 30 people, if you open a starter invitation that is still valid, you see that the roster is full and you cannot join. Join the team, Get the app and join and Continue in the browser do not appear. Generating another link does not create a place.
- That screen stays until you tap its only button, and the button depends on how you arrived:
- Continue, if you open the link without being signed in, or signed in with start steps still to complete: you carry on through the app’s normal entry.
- Go back, if you arrived by pasting the code into Invitation link or code: you return to choosing how you start, with your profile and progress as they were.
- Go to Home, if you already use the app and open the link from outside it: you go to Home.
- There is no waiting list or notification when a place opens, and the app does not join you on its own. Check with the President or a Manager.
- A roster member leaving, or being removed by the President, opens a place. You can open the original link again while it is still valid, or the President can try Make official player again. Removing a known substitute does not open a place. Transferring the presidency does not either if the person remains on the roster.
