Retain returning players
Who does this: an Owner, Admin or Manager, after the new season exists and its teams are created.
Retaining is an invitation, not a registration: the player accepts and is in the team. If you need this year’s details and consents again, send them the registration link instead.
Before you start
Section titled “Before you start”- Create the new season (Roll over into next season) with its teams.
- Select the old season in the sidebar; you are choosing from its players.
- Go to Members and click Retain into next season.
- Choose the Target season.
- Search or Select all to choose the players.
- For each player, check the Target team. ClubEzy suggests one from the rollover mapping; change it if a player is moving up an age group.
- Mark anyone who will train with the squad but not play as Train-on.
- Click Send invites.
What happens next
Section titled “What happens next”Each player receives “You’re invited back for {season}” (a parent receives “{player} is invited back for {season}”). Accepting puts them in the new season and team. They do not appear in the registrations queue; in the members list, the Joined via filter shows them as Retained.
If something goes wrong
Section titled “If something goes wrong”- A player has no target team suggested. Their old team was not copied. Pick one, or create the team first.
- Retain into next season is missing. There is no later season yet; create it first.
- The invitation is still pending after a week. Resend it from Members → Pending Invitations in the new season.
