Additional Support for Deletion Requests

Admins seeking assistance can complete the Delete Team Request Form. Here’s how it works:

  • The team details and requester’s admin permissions will be verified.

  • You will be contacted if additional information is required.

  • Once verification is complete, the deletion will be processed, and a confirmation will be sent.

Escalation for Non-Admins or Missing Admins

If you're not an admin and need a team deleted, or if the admin is no longer associated with the team, follow these steps:

  1. Escalate the request to designated district authorities or supervisors.

  2. The designated authority should directly contact the sportsYou support team to request deletion.

Additional Notes

  • Teams cannot be deleted by non-admin users under any circumstances.

  • Admins can remove members from a team by navigating to the "Members" tab, searching for the member, and selecting "Remove" or "Remove from Team."
