Name the sport, then create the teams you will actually run this season. If you already converted tryout registrations, tighten placeholder names (U14, U16) into real age groups.
Sport first
Add at least one sport and the positions your coaches use. Details: Sports & positions.
Teams
Create a team for each age group or program. Each team gets its own messaging channel automatically. Details: Create your teams.
Coaches
Invite head and assistant coaches from Members or the team roster. Rule-based channels stay in sync — skip Custom groups until you have a reason. See Messaging & channel membership.
