Updates

08/11/2011 03:00 AM

Please bare with us as we finalize the website and fix the the application errors. We are currently restructuring how some of the information will be displayed on the website and are fixing any glitches as we come across them.

!!!IMPORTANT!!!
-DO NOT ADD DUPLICATE PEOPLE INTO THE SYSTEM
what many of you are doing for rosters/contacts, is clicking the create new contact/player as opposed to searching for existing player. If you are listed as a team contact, and want to add yourself to the roster, please search for EXISTING PLAYER as opposed to creating new when entering players into the roster list. By creating duplicate names, you are filling up the database that stores this information and potentially SLOWLING down the website as it sorts through and displays the data.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.
