Starting a Team

Step 1

Register a Team

Go to the Play Ball! (Registration) page, select your team’s desired division, and create a new team using your login and/or create a new profile.

Create a Team

Step 2

Add Players to Your Team

Rosters do not carry over from previous seasons. You must add or invite players to join your roster. From your team dashboard, you can “Send Invites” by entering the email addresses of players you want to join your team. They will receive an email with a link to register and complete the process.

Notes

• If you need players, email membership@softballaustin.org to see if a pool is available.
• Managers are responsible for ensuring all players have registered, paid the fee, and signed the waiver before the deadline.
• If a player can’t pay online, assist them using a team credit card. No checks accepted.

Step 3

Pay Team Fee

Your registration is not complete until the Team Fee is paid. Invoices are sent at registration and can be paid online through your dashboard.

Step 4

Complete Ratings Form

Open Division

Email ratings to asstcommissioner@softballaustin.org. The form must include all players on your roster.

Ratings may be submitted after the season starts. A ratings clinic will be held — dates to be announced.
