Below is a quick step-by-step guide to help you get started tracking your hockey team's statistics with HockeyShare.com. Please read these directions carefully, as they answer many common questions we receive about this feature. If you have any questions, please contact us.
Add a New Team - Click on Track Stats link under the Coaches menu. You will see a link to Add a New Team. Click that link and fill in the details of your team. Options are explained below:
Team Name - the full name of the team you're tracking stats for (ex - 2007-2008 Kenosha Komets Varsity)
Short Name - the abbreviated name of the team you're tracking stats for (ex - Komets Varsity)
Age Class - age classification for the team (ex - Squirt, Peewee, Novice, etc.)
Location - the general location of the team. This information is used in team searches. (ex - Kenosha, WI)
Team Logo - team/club logo (must be .jpg or .gif format)
Require Password - this option will require ALL users to enter a password before they're able to view any of the team pages. This password should be different than your login password, as everyone who wants to view the team page will need to be given this password.
Hide Stats - this option will hide the team and player statistics from all viewers except the person tracking the stats (when logged in). This feature is handy if you want to keep track of your team's stats, but don't want the players/parents to see them during the season.
Specify your home rink by choosing the Home Rink option from your My Teams page. Specifying a home rink allows the HockeyShare system to automatically create driving directions to your road games (if you enter/choose a visiting rink address). This is a great time-saver feature and keeps you from having to manually get the directions and email them out to everyone.
