Before you start

Steps

  1. Step 1: On Today, click Review changes next to Winter 2027 team registration: 9 changes waiting for approval.

    The registration’s Review tab opens. Changes wait here grouped by team, a new team first, and the first one opens on the right.

  2. Step 2: Check the new team, like Mill Row Mavericks: its captain and its First roster.

    Its captain named it and paid the team fee, so it’s Waiting for approval. Its four players wait with it, marked Can’t approve yet until the team is approved.

What you’ll see

Mill Row Mavericks is registered with its first roster, and Harbor Kings has three new players. Everything you approve goes straight onto the season’s rosters and your website; anything you turn down never does. New changes from captains and players wait on the Review tab, and Today tells you when there are some.

Common questions

Who has to be approved?
In a team registration: every new team, its first roster, and every change a captain asks for (adding, removing or editing a player, or renaming a team they named). Players who join with an invitation or the team code wait too. Changes you make yourself apply at once.
Why does a player say Can’t approve yet?
Their team isn’t approved yet, so approve the team first (Approve all does both), or a fee hasn’t been paid yet: the team’s, or the player’s own when each player pays. The right side says which.
What happens to a payment when I reject?
A player who paid for their place is refunded, except the service fee, and Reject becomes Reject and refund. Rejecting a new team rejects its waiting players too, and anyone who paid is refunded.
I approved the wrong change.
Click Undo in the message that appears, or find it under Recently decided and click Undo. You can undo a decision for a while after you make it.
Who can approve?
League admins only. Captains see their own changes as waiting, and they’re emailed when you approve or reject one.
