Edina MTB Team - How to utilize Team App - Overview & User Tips
Primary use is Practice and Race communication organized by “Access Groups”.

Access Groups: Athletes = MS, HS, Performance.  Coaches = MS, HS, Performance, Alumni.
     Parents = MS, HS, Performance.  Adults (Coaches / Parents) can be in multiple groups.

Contact Information:  Please include email and cell phone number.  Please opt to “Show Contact Details”  so this information is available in case of emergency at practice or event
    Suggestion: Include athlete graduation year (ex. ’29) after last name.  Consider including a photo.

Guardian / Child Alignment:  It is beneficial to establish the Parent (Guardian) / Child alignment, especially in cases with middle schoolers that don’t have or manage their own email. Team admin will link athlete and parent accounts so you can RSVP to practice on their behalf if athletes are not managing their own Team app profile.

Notification Settings (prior to opening a specific team in the App):  Settings -> Notifications.  If “push notifications” are turned off, all notifications will come via email.  Pros & Cons.  Fewer notification alerts, but may miss timely notifications.
    Did I miss a Notification??  The “bell” in the upper right corner will include a number on it if there have been notifications sent that you have not opened.  Click on the bell to see what notifications have come through.

Events:  Practices, Races, Social

• ALWAYS mark “Yes” or “No” for planned attendance.  Very important for planning purposes.

Following are ways communication may happen via Team App.
