The captain gave you a code — here's where to put it.

Join a team with an access code

Your team captain should have given you a six-character access code (numbers and letters, no 0/O/1/I). If they sent you an invite email, you can click the button in the email and the code auto-fills. Otherwise:

Where the code goes

  1. Open the event site and click Register.
  2. Pick the same sport and division your captain chose. Make sure these match — if you pick the wrong division, the code won't work.
  3. On the Team setup step, pick Join existing team and paste the access code.
  4. The page will show the team name and current roster size. Confirm you're joining the right team and continue.
  5. Finish the rest of the flow: contact info, custom questions, waiver, payment.

Invalid code?

  • Wrong division? Codes are scoped to a division. Make sure you picked the same one as your captain.
  • Roster full? If the captain's roster is at its limit, the code stops accepting new players. Ask them to check their portal — they may need the organizer to raise the roster limit.
  • Typo? The code alphabet is 2-9 and A-Z (minus letters that look like numbers). Watch for "0" vs "O" and "1" vs "I" — these aren't used, but people still mis-type similar-looking characters.

Free spots

Some teams reserve "free spots" for teammates they're recruiting. If your captain gave you a free spot, your seat is paid for out of the team's reserve and you'll see a $0 line item at checkout. You still have to fill in contact info and sign the waiver.

Can I switch teams later?

No self-serve switcher. Ask the organizer — they can move you in the admin panel, but it's a manual change because it affects rosters, pricing tiers, and brackets.
