How to invite teams to an invite-only event

Create an invitation for each team, send its link to the team's captain, and follow who has opened and accepted it.

In an invite-only event, a team registers through an invitation from you. Each invitation has its own link: you send it to a team’s captain, who opens it and registers their team. To make your event invite only, see how to make an event invite only.

Before you start

  • You need to manage the event.
  • The event is invite only, and its registration is open.

Steps

  1. In your event’s planner, click Registrations in the sidebar.

  2. Open the Invitations tab.

  3. Click Add invitation.

  4. Give the invitation a Name you’ll recognize, such as the team’s. The person you invite doesn’t see it. You can also set an Expiration Date. An Email sends nothing: it lists the invitation on that person’s My pending invites page.

  5. Click Save.

  6. Click the copy icon on the invitation’s row (Copy invitation link), and send the link to the team’s captain by email or message. Dodgeball Hub doesn’t send it for you.

  7. The captain opens the link, signs in or creates an account, and clicks Accept Invitation.

  8. They click Register and register their team as usual: its name, their role on it, then any steps your registration asks for.

  9. When they finish, they click Done, and the page confirms Invitation accepted.

  10. Back on the Invitations tab, the invitation’s Status names who accepted it. Before that, it shows Pending, then who opened or declined it.
