Squad Leader

Running your team

You're a Squad Leader because you created your team, or another Squad Leader/admin promoted you. It's scoped to your one team only — you can't manage anyone else's.

Team Admin card

Under Team > Team Admin you can rename your team, upload a team logo, and manage everything below. This tab only appears for your own team's Squad Leader (or a Platform Admin) — regular members don't see these controls.

Invite links and who can join

Every team defaults to invite-only — it won't show up as a pickable option for someone browsing or registering, and the only way in is your team's invite link. Team Admin shows a badge for the current status and a checkbox to switch it: turn invite-only off if you'd rather let anyone request to join and approve them one at a time instead.

The invite link itself auto-rotates every 7 days on its own, so an old link that got shared somewhere you didn't intend stops working without you having to do anything. "Regenerate" rotates it immediately if you want a fresh one sooner. There's a separate, unrelated public leaderboard link too — that one's read-only and doesn't let anyone join, it just shows your team's all-time standings to whoever has the link.

Approving join requests

Someone requesting to join your team (via the invite link, or a general request if invite-only is off) shows up pending until you approve or deny them. You'll also get an email if the app's operator has outgoing email configured. A brand-new team a member creates themselves is automatically approved and makes them Squad Leader right away — there's no one else who could approve it.

Roster and handicap

Team Admin's roster card is where you set each shooter's assigned handicap yardage. It's shown as a live hint while logging their round and as a sortable column on the Team Leaderboard — informational only, the app doesn't automatically adjust anyone's score based on it, since the real scoring rule varies by league.

Promoting a successor

You can promote any other approved member of your team to Squad Leader — useful before you step back from the role, or just to share the load. A member still pending approval can't be promoted until they're approved first.

Joining a league

From Team Admin (or when creating a new team), you can request to join a league your team wants to compete in. That's a pending request too — a League Admin has to approve it before your team shows as an active member of that league. A standalone team with no league works exactly the same otherwise; joining one is entirely optional.
