Create a team

Set up a recurring group – photo, name, description, location, public or invite-only, and the two auto-add settings that save you work later.

A Team is a group of members who meet repeatedly – a class, a squad, a training crew. Teams have a calendar of activities, attendance, materials and notices. They do not sell tickets; use an event for that.

Create the team#

  1. Home → Teams (Beta) tab → Create Team.
  2. Team Information – Select photo (square works best), Team name, Location (Edit location opens the map picker) and a Description of up to 1000 words. Click Next Page >.
  3. Team Setting:
    • Email Address – contact e-mail shown to members (pre-filled with yours).
    • Public Team (Invite only if toggled off) – On lists the team on theground.io so people can find it and ask to join; Off means members join only through your invitation link.
    • When adding new members, auto-add them to all upcoming new activities – Yes means a new member is immediately expected at every future activity (typical for a class).
    • When creating new activities, auto-add all existing members – Yes means every new activity starts with the whole team on its attendance list.
  4. Click Save. "Team creation successful."
