Build teams

Once the game is full, picking teams at the field is the last thing you want to do. Build them in the app and everyone arrives knowing which shirt to bring.

Create the teams

1. Open Manage game and tap Create teams.
2. Choose the Number of teams — 2, 3 or 4.
3. Name each team and pick its Shirt color: white, black, blue, red, orange, green, yellow or no bibs. Names prefill from the color.
4. Set Players per team — a target, not a hard limit.
5. The Preview deals the roster out. Tap Shuffle to deal again, hold a name to move it, and tap the glove to mark each team's keeper. Reserve-list players are never dealt.
6. Leave Tell the players on to post the teams in the event chat and notify everyone, then tap Create teams.

Adjust on the day

Someone dropped and the reserve list filled the spot? Back on Manage game, drag the new player into a team, tap Auto-fill to deal any unassigned players, or Shuffle everything. Tap a team's header to Edit team — rename it or change its color — or Delete teams to start over. Posting the teams again sends the update to the chat.

Why teams matter for stats

A two-team game with a final score gives every player a win, a draw or a loss on their record. Three- and four-team events count as games but don't produce a record — use Multi-game sessions for rotations. If the score comes in before teams exist, the app nudges you with Who was on each side? so you can assign them afterwards. See Scores, MVP and awards.

The keepers you mark are the candidates for the Best keeper vote.
