How to create a category
A category groups your players by age, gender or level, for example "U-12 Boys". You need at least one category before you can run your club.
- Select Categories in the left menu.
- Select Create Category. On an empty list, select Create your first category.
- Enter the Category Name, for example "U-12 Boys".
- Choose the Sport and the Gender. If you pick several sports or genders, Widdo creates one category for each.
- Set Birth year (from) and Birth year (to). Widdo shows the ages this covers.
- Set the Status to Active and select Submit.
You do not add players one by one. Players join through your public enrollment link and are placed in a category. See the enrollment link article.
Tips
- If you see "Cannot create categories", add a sport to your club first in My Club.
- Clubs that organize by skill level use a Level order instead of birth years.
- Use the Allow older players and Allow younger players options when a category should accept players outside the birth year range.
