Information for Parents

Can't see your child's team schedule/info?

Did your spouse sign up your child, and you're stuck in the dark?  Enable both parents to see what they need with these simple instructions.  This can also be accomplished via the phone app per these mobile instructions

Very important to note: The only person who can remedy your access is the person who signed up your child.  Sportsengine (correctly) does not allow anyone else (coaches, anyone on boosters, site admins, etc.) to control who can enable access to your children's account information.

Synced Calendar feed not updating?

We've seen reports that those who have used the sportsengine "sync calendar" function do not always get updates (like game time changes) made to pre-existing events if using the google calendar sync function.  It apparently works for other calendar sync systems, and it apparently works (for all sync systems) for any newly-added or deleted events.  OLW does not have control over these technologies and suggests that coaches keep players and parents overly-informed of any changes to the schedule.

Not sure how to describe your problem?

If your challenge is more likely a sportsengine question rather than an OLW-specific question, sportsengine has a fantastic FAQ help section!  Try to solve your problem on your own by first visiting https://help.sportsengine.com/en/

If it's ultimately an OLW question, or you just want that personal touch from an OLW Athletic Board member, please contact olwboosters -at- gmail -dot- com for help.
