Understand Head Coach, Assistant Coach and Guest Coach Labels
Use Academy Coach role labels to describe the coach’s relationship without granting Academy-owner administration.
Available role labels
- Head Coach: identifies a senior coach who leads Academy training responsibilities.
- Assistant Coach: the default label for a newly attached coach and for coaches supporting batches.
- Guest Coach: identifies an occasional or short-term Academy coaching relationship.
How to change a role label
- Open Coaches Info.
- Find the coach and select Edit Coach.
- Select Head Coach, Assistant Coach or Guest Coach.
- Review the assigned branches and batches.
- Select Save Changes.
What a role label does not provide
- Academy-owner access.
- Branch Management.
- Staff Management.
- Academy subscription or billing access.
- Player enrolment or Academy fee management.
- Program or batch administration outside the coach’s assigned work.
Assignments remain essential
The role label does not replace branch and batch assignment. A coach must still be assigned to the relevant branches and batches before Academy work appears in the Coach account.
Role labels and access
Note: Use the role label to describe the coach’s Academy relationship. Branch and batch assignments determine where the coach works, and the role label does not provide Academy-owner administration.
