As a new season rolls around, here are the recommended steps to get sidelineHD ready!
In most cases, we recommend creating a new team for each season, but the decision is ultimately a matter of personal preference.
Once you create your team, you can use the roster rollover tool, to bring player(s) over from a previous team(s) that you managed. Transferred players (if claimed) will have clips from ALL their teams on single player page.
Create a new team or keep existing one:
Keep your existing team if:
- You are staying with the same organization
- You have a small number of changes, such as adding a new player
Create a new team if:
- You have changed organizations or want to make significant changes to your team name or handle
- You are removing multiple players or coaches
- iScore users should create new teams if they need to make multiple changes (such as swapping player jersey numbers, adding/removing several players
- If you are using iScore and have mismatched players on screen, start with a clean slate by creating a new team

- If you have had this player on a previous team you manage, we suggest rollover their profile to avoid creating duplicate profiles.

Invite Player Manager (optional)

SLHD TIP, iScore users:
If you are an iScore user, enter the new player in iScore first, then perform a roster-resync AFTER adding new players to iScore. This transfers new players from iScore to your sidelineHD roster.
Deactivate players not participating in the upcoming season
- Login to your sidelineHD Account

SLHD TIP: Deactivation vs Delete:
- Team managers can DEACTIVATE former players.
- DEACTIVATED players are no longer members of the team community and will be hidden from team and public pages. Past highlights will remain available on their players page.
- They will not have access to play-by-play game summaries.
- If a player is unclaimed, they may be DELETED.
- DELETED players will have all of their clips permanently deleted.
- Note that deleting a player PERMANENTLY DELETES any highlight clips for that player.
- In most cases it is better to DEACTIVATE a player.
- Deactivated players will be hidden from team and public pages.
