Participants who do not have regular internet or computer access can be added to Tournaments as Virtual Members. Their Team Captain can log steps for Virtual Members in their team throughout the Tournament.
- Both the Coordinator and the Team Captain can add Virtual Members to a team, and log steps on their behalf.
- Virtual Members need to provide their Team Captain with their steps or time spent doing moderate or vigorous activity regularly.
- Using Virtual Members adds additional time to Coordinating and/or Captaincy - consider if this is feasible for your team.
Before you begin, your Coordinator needs to:
- create your Tournament and
- create your team within the Tournament.
You will also need to add the Virtual Member to the team.
