Before You Start:

Before proceeding with the below steps the following actions need to done:

• Your Coordinator has created your Tournament
• You have signed up and verified your 10,000 Steps account
• Your Coordinator has added your Team with you as Captain
• You or your Coordinator has generated a Team Invite Code - How Team Captains can Generate Team Invite Codes.

Please reach out to your Coordinator if you need something action before moving on.

Please Note:

• Once generated by either you or your Coordinator, your Team Code stays the same unless your team is deleted.
• Not using Team Invite Codes? See how to directly add your Team Members.

What is a Team Invite Code?

The Team Invite Code feature is designed to streamline the process of adding participants to your Tournament by allowing Coordinators and Team Captains to create a unique invite code for each team. Using this team-specific code, your team members can add themselves to your team.

Sharing Your Team Invite Code

Your Coordinator may send you a sample message that they would like you to share alongside an invitation link and the team code. If you have generated the team code, you will have seen a sample message you can also use.

• Copy the sample message, edit as needed, and send it to your team members via email, messaging apps, or any preferred communication method. Include this link to the support topic - How to Join a Team using the Team Invite Code.
• Tip: Use a communication platform that your team members are familiar with.
• If the team code isn't working for a team member, you can add them to the team directly. See How Team Captains can add Team Members to a Tournament
• Check your Tournament team to ensure everyone is added - How participants can access Tournaments.

Note: If Team Invite Codes are shared by your Coordinator to a group, make sure you doublecheck you have the right code. Team Invite Codes are unique to each team, and can be used by any 10,000 Steps member.

Only share the code with people you would like in your team. Sharing the code on public, open or shared platforms may lead to incorrect team allocation.
