Step 5: CSV Format Requirements

Gender: Specify as [male], [female], [other], or leave empty

Mobile Country: Must be either [US] or [CA]

Mobile: Format as [phone]

Jersey Number: Optional; must range between 0 - 999
 

Step 6: Team Member Roles

Team Member Roles:
Every member uploaded will require a specific role ID. The supported roles are:

If a team member requires a guardian, you must complete the following fields:

• Guardian Last Name

Filling out these fields will automatically add the guardian to the Family & Friends list.
 

Step 8: Uploading the CSV File

• Choose File: Once your CSV file meets all format requirements, click on "Choose File" to upload it.
• Error Detection: The system will check for any format errors. If the CSV does not comply with the specified instructions, the upload will be rejected.
• Common Error: If the system indicates that first_name is missing, you can fix this by inserting a new column before Column B (“Add column before”).

• After that, copy and paste the values from Column A into Column B (first_name), then clear Column A. This will ensure the system removes any hidden values that may be causing errors.

  

• Please review your file, and click on Upload CSV

  
   

After successfully completing the upload process, an email confirmation will be sent to indicate that your roster has been uploaded.

Step 9: Reviewing Your Roster
