Before you start

Before saving a lineup, confirm the match is attached to the right team, the roster is current, and RSVP gaps are treated as planning notes rather than confirmed absences.

  • Coaches
  • Team managers
  • Directors

Step-by-step workflow

Open the match, review roster and availability context, build the lineup, save it, then send only the relevant matchday update.

  • Create or review the match
  • Check roster and availability context
  • Build the lineup
  • Save the lineup
  • Send the right update

Common mistakes

Avoid these rollout errors; they create confusion faster than the product can clean it up.

  • Building lineups from memory instead of current roster context.
  • Assuming advanced competition intelligence is complete.
  • Sending family updates before match details are confirmed.

Troubleshooting

If lineup context is missing, inspect match team, roster assignment, and denied-role boundaries before changing player records.

  • If a player is missing from lineup context, check team assignment and roster status first.
  • If availability context is incomplete, use RSVP basics carefully and keep final coach judgment explicit.
  • If results or league context look thin, verify match and competition assignments before treating standings as complete.

What not to rely on yet

These limits should stay out of club-critical plans unless feature status changes.

  • Advanced competition logic is partial.
  • Full league tables depend on competition assignment completeness.

Beta / partial notes

Use these areas carefully with pilot expectations and transparent communication.

  • Advanced competition logic is partial.
  • Full league tables depend on complete competition assignments.
  • Availability depth beyond RSVP basics is still maturing.

Example club scenario

A coach opens the U14 match, checks roster and availability notes, builds the starting 11, saves the lineup, and sends a team update before arrival time.
