How to Add a New Admin

Watch “How to Add a New Admin” on YouTube

Before you start

  • Sign in to app.sportsschoolmanager.com as the company owner or an admin with permission to manage admins.
  • Make sure the correct company and school are selected at the top of the page — the new admin is added to the school that is currently selected.

Step 1 — Open the Admins page

In the left sidebar, under People, click Admins. The School Admins Page lists everyone who currently administers the selected school.

Step 3 — Enter the admin’s details

  • First Name (required)
  • Last Name (required)
  • Email — the address the admin will use to sign in. Enter it now so they receive their welcome email and can log in straight away.

Step 4 — Save

Click Save. The admin is created and appears in the list. If you entered an email address, they receive a “Welcome to Sport School Manager Platform!” email with a link to the app.

Step 5 — How the new admin signs in

The new admin goes to app.sportsschoolmanager.com and signs in with the same email address you entered — either with Login with Email (a magic link is sent to their inbox) or Continue with Google if that address is a Google account. No password is needed. On first sign-in they land directly in your school.

Managing your admins

  • Search — use the Search by name box to find an admin by name or email.
  • Status filter — switch between Active and Inactive admins.
  • View — open an admin’s profile to edit details, contact info, or deactivate them.
  • Permissions — what an admin can see and do is controlled by their role. To adjust it, see the Manage roles guide.
