is not open until Dec. 7.
2. Your club needs one certified scorekeeper
and R2 - they don't have to keep score / officiate each time, but they

5. Give each of your girls a copy of their membership card to carry

the ability to print membership cards for the entire club under CLUB
MANAGEMENT.
6. Your coaches can print their own copies of their team roster
anytime under TEAMS
AND CLUBS. They must have a copy at every
event. TIP:
Give a team roster to each coach to stick in the ball bag or
med kit. In case a coach forgets a roster, this will ensure that
a backup roster is available at a tournament.
