How do I add teams?

Before you start

• The event must be stopped (you cannot add teams to a running event)

Steps

1. Open your event (Events list → click the event name).
2. Click the Teams tab.
3. Click New.
4. Fill in:

Field	What to enter
Number	Team number (1, 2, 3…)
Name	Team name (“Blue Sharks”, “Team Alpha”)
Email Address	Contact email (optional — used for sending activation links)
Route	Which route this team follows (leave empty if you have not created routes yet)
Alliance	Which alliance this team belongs to (optional)

5. Click Save.
6. Repeat for each team.

Result

Teams appear in the Teams tab list. Each team can now be assigned a route, sent a QR code, or marked as staff.

Tip

Check “This team is Organization Staff” for coordinator teams. Staff teams see the same map and challenges but earn 0 points and do not appear on the leaderboard. They do not consume credits.

After creating all teams, use the QR Code sub-tab to generate activation codes for distribution:
