How Team Captains can Add Virtual Team Members

Participants who do not have regular internet or computer access can be added to Tournaments as Virtual Members, and their Team Captain can log the participant's steps for them 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 need your Virtual Member's:

Name (preferred name)
Date of birth (1st of Jan can be used if only year known)
Gender (prefer not to say is available)
Location (country, state, post code only)

Only Member's name and steps are visible to other members.
