Team Up Help – Choose Teams Screen

The Choose Teams screen has two uses:

  • By clicking the Choose Teams button on the Manage Event screen, you can set up your own teams.
  • By long-clicking on an active game on the Manage Event screen, Team Up will display a menu. Click the Change Teams menu option to display the Choose Teams screen and move players easily from one team to another.

Choose Teams

The screen shows a list of available players and lets you assign them to the two teams in a match. You reach this screen by clicking the Choose Teams button on the Manage Event screen.

Choose Teams

The Choose Teams screen has these components:

  • Available Players: This is a list of all the players that have been assigned to an event, except for those that are deactivated and those that are currently playing in a game.
    • Click on a player to add that player to the team indicated on the right.
  • Team 1 Button: Click this button to begin assigning players to Team 1. All the players that have been assigned to Team 1 are listed next to the button.
  • Team 2 Button: Click this button to begin assigning players to Team 2. All the players that have been assigned to Team 2 are listed next to the button.
  • Team 1 or Team 2 Header: Next to the header that says, “Available Players”, there is a header that says either “Team 1” or “Team 2”.
    • Any player you click will be put into the indicated team.
    • When you click on the Team 1 or Team 2 button, the header changes to indicate the team you clicked.
  • Team 1 or Team 2 List: Below the header, you’ll see a list of the players that have been assigned to the indicated team. Just click on the player to remove him or her from the team.
  • Cancel Button: Click this button to cancel the screen without creating a new game.
  • Save Button: Click this button to save the teams you created and add the game to the Active Games list of the Manage Event screen.

Three Vertical Dots: If you click on the three vertical dots in the top right corner, you will get these menu options:

  • Display Log: Shows the Session Log screen.
  • Help: Displays this web-based help page.

This screen may seem complicated, but in reality, it’s very easy to use. For example, it only takes five clicks to set up a doubles match:

  • Click once for each player on Team 1.
  • Team Up automatically changes the screen so you are now assigning players to Team 2.
  • Click once for each player on Team 2.
  • Click the Save button. Done!

Note: You can use the Choose Teams screen to assign teams that have a different number of players than the event’s default. For example, if you are holding a doubles event, you can use the Choose Teams screen to assign a 3-on-2 match or a 3-on-3 match, etc.

Change Teams

When in Change Teams mode, the Choose Teams screen makes it very easy to move players from one screen to another. You get to this mode by long-clicking on an active game on the Manage Event screen and selecting the Change Teams option.

In Change Teams mode, the screen works like this:

  • Available Players: Always empty.
  • Team 1 Button: Click this button to begin moving players from Team 1 to Team 2. All the players that have been assigned to Team 1 are listed next to the button.
  • Team 2 Button: Click this button to begin moving players from Team 2 to Team 1. All the players that have been assigned to Team 2 are listed next to the button.
  • Team 1 or Team 2 Header: Next to the header that says, “Available Players”, there is a header that says either “Team 1” or “Team 2”.
    • Any player you click will be moved to the other team.
  • Team 1 or Team 2 List: Below the header, you’ll see a list of the players that have been assigned to the indicated team. Just click on the player to move them to the other team.
  • Cancel Button: Click this button to cancel the screen without creating a new game.
  • Save Button: Click this button to save the teams you created and update the game in the Active Games list of the Manage Event screen.

Three Vertical Dots: If you click on the three vertical dots in the top right corner, you will get these menu options:
