Inviting Athletes

Adding an athlete to your roster does not give them a login. To let an athlete sign in, send an invite from the athlete's profile page (/athletes/[id]).

Invite a student

1. Open the athlete's profile.
2. In the header, click Invite (this button only appears for athletes who haven't accepted yet).
3. Surflink generates an invite link, copies it to your clipboard, and the button changes to Invite Sent!. If you've configured email, the athlete is also emailed the link.
4. Share the link with the athlete if you copied it manually.

Once an athlete has accepted, the button is replaced by an Active pill.

What the student does

1. They open the invite link (/invite/[token]).
2. They see "Join Surflink", your name, and their pre-filled details.
3. Their Email is pre-filled; they set a Create Password (minimum 8 characters) and click Create Account.
4. They're taken to their student dashboard. See the Student Guide.

If a link has already been used, it shows "This invite link is invalid or has already been used."

Self-enrollment via a club link / QR

For grassroots intake, share a club enrollment link so athletes add themselves.

1. Open Club QR (/settings/club-qr) -- reachable from the Add Athlete wizard or Settings.
2. The page shows a QR code that encodes your public link (/club/[your-slug]).
3. Optionally set a Vanity slug -- click Edit, type a slug (minimum 3 characters), and Save.
4. Use Copy link or Print to put it on a flyer.

When someone scans it they land on /club/[slug], enter their name (and optionally email, phone, age), and click Join roster. They appear on your roster, and if email is configured they get a link to finish creating their profile.

Self-enrollment includes a reminder that anyone under 16 should have a guardian complete it.
