How to Upload a player/Coach/Manager for Girls Academy

Overview:

The below article and video will demonstrate how to Upload Players into the GotSport system.

***Note that if you attempt to upload a player and the First Name, Last Name, and DOB all match identically, the system will see that player already exists and a duplicate will not be created.

Step 1:

• From your Dashboard, click 'Club Management', then 'Players'

Step 2:

• Click 'Upload Players'.

Step 3:

• Click on "Download template with only required columns". A blank template .csv file will download and you can utilize it to match up your players' information to prepare for the upload. The Instructions table will guide you through the correct format and required data fields needed for the upload.

Note***: When the information is complete in your template, be sure to save the file as either a .csv or .txt file so it is compatible to upload. An Excel (.xls), Numbers, or Google Sheet file will not be compatible.

Step 4:

• Go to the Import into Club section and fill in the information needed for the upload.
• You can upload all of the Players with an Affiliation added to their account by opening the "Select Affiliation" dropdown menu and selecting the desired affiliation.
• You will be required to include the Competitive Level for each of the Players (the list of available Competitive Levels will populate once the Affiliation is selected for you to include in your player upload file)

Make sure to use USSSA for affiliation and use Girls Academy USSSA for "Competition Level" when uploading the template
