League Setup - Messages to Players

Messages to Players

Note: The Messages menu option is the only way you can communicate to your players via email on the website about your league. 

Note 2: You can also message your players via text, but you MUST turn the text feature on before players register. This setting is found in the session settings.

Email Players

1. Click "Messages" in the league menu.

2. Click "Add a Campaign" button to start email process.

3. When you are ready to send the email, click "Yes" on "Ready to Send as Scheduled".

5. Enter Campaign Title. This is the name on your email list to track what you have emailed.

6. Enter email address for "Reply to Email" and "From Name". This is the email address players will reply to with questions and concerns, and they will know who contacted them.

7. Select "Session" if you decide to send email to only players that registered for a specific session.

8. Select "Type" if you decide to send email to players that meet a certain criteria.
