Coach Onboarding & Setup Guide
For Coaches & Admins
Everything a coach or program admin needs to get a season ready in Blitz Board Stats: create the organization, add teams and rosters (one at a time or by spreadsheet), invite guardians, and schedule billing to match your kickoff. Every new account includes one free test game and one free live game, so you can practice tracking before billing begins.
