Why Team Setup Matters
For parents and players to see events and schedules in the MyPGA app, Coaches must complete all three steps:

Add each Team to the scheduled events
If any of these steps are missed, event schedules will not appear in the app for families.

Important
Ensure Schedules Appear for Parents & Players
If parents or players report that schedules are missing in the app, confirm the following:
✅ Teams have been created and saved
✅ Players are rostered to Teams
✅ Teams have been added to each scheduled event
✅ The event schedule has been saved and published
Schedules will not display unless Teams are explicitly assigned to events.
How Team Setup Impacts Your Season
Proper team setup is important because:
Teams must exist before you can roster players
Teams are used to generate schedules
Teams determine how players are grouped for matches and league play
PGA Jr. League uses a team-based format, where players compete together in structured matches throughout the season.
Best Practices for Managing Teams
Create teams before assigning players
Use clear, consistent team names
Plan team structure based on:
Number of players
Age divisions (e.g., 13u, 17u)
Balanced competition
