Invite your coaches to the league

Coaches join your league so their teams get the league's Pro coverage. You invite a coach by putting their email on a team: in the setup wizard right after checkout, or from Teams any time. They get an email with a private link, sign in, and they're on your league.

How an invite works

  1. 1

    Add the team with the coach's email

    In the setup wizard, or Teams → Add team. The invite goes out right then. The confirmation tells you exactly which coaches were invited and names anything that was skipped, so "invited" always means an email was sent.

  2. 2

    They open the email and sign in with that exact address

    The email names your league, says their Pro access is covered by the league, and carries a private link. It works once and for 72 hours. On a phone the link opens GameDay DJ (or the store if it isn't installed yet). If the link has expired, nothing is lost: they install the app and sign in with the same email, which joins them just the same.

  3. 3

    They build their team in the app

    Scan the lineup card, pick songs, generate intros, lock in. That team is theirs; your league's song rules apply on top.

  4. 4

    You link their team to its slot

    Ask the coach for their team's share code (the 8 characters at the end of the link they share with parents, or paste the whole link), then use Link team on the Teams page. Their roster shows up under your league.

After a coach joins

Overview moves them from Invited to Joined the moment they sign in, and to Game-ready when they lock the team in. The coach's team is covered by your league's Pro from the first sign-in; nothing to buy on their side.

A coach says the link did not work

  • "It says the link was already used." The link works once. They can still get in: open the app (or getgamedaydj.com/league) and sign in with the email the invite was sent to.
  • "I signed in but I don't see the league." They signed in with a different address. Apple's Hide My Email creates a private relay address that will not match; ask them to sign in with the email the invite went to.
  • Resend. Seats & Billing has a Resend for every invited coach, three per day. Between resends, the same-email sign-in above always works.
