It says “Waiting on the coach to approve”

Joins are confirmed by the coach, so the roster is never filled by a shared code. Until they tap Approve you see the team name and nothing else.

1. This is normal for the first day or so. Right after you join, the app says Request sent; the coach sees the request under Needs you on their Team tab.
2. If you know the coach, send them a text; the Approve button is one tap.
3. Check that you joined the right team. Some clubs have several age groups with similar names.
4. If the coach had already added your player to the roster before you joined, the code confirms you right away with no wait.

5. If that didn’t work

   A week with no answer usually means the coach is not using the app yet. We do not approve joins on a coach’s behalf, but tell us and we will nudge them.
