Team Captains:

The Team Captain or Manager is responsible for registering their team for the event.

Click on the “manage” link corresponding to your team and then click “Sign Team Up for a CEVO Event”.

If you are a Team Captain needing to create a team, login to your personal user account then go to “teams”->”create a team” (or click “Create a Team” on the main account page).

Once the team is created/registered for the event, each team member may join the roster by logging into their personal user account on the website and clicking “Join A Roster”.

Team Players:

In order to join a roster, your team captain must have already registered your team for this event. Once that is done, to join the roster, login to your personal user account and click “teams”->”Join a Roster” (or simply click “Join a Roster” on the main account page).

On the Join Roster page, choose this event from the drop-down menu, then type all or part of the team name and click “Find Team”. When the search finishes, click the “join” button corresponding to your team.
