FAQs for the MyNetball Manager App

__________





​​​​​​​How do I get the app?

Download the MyNetball Manager app from the App Store and Google Play Store.


Who can access the app to score our team games?

Anyone that your team/club/school gives access to. This could be players, or non-players (e.g. Captain, Coach, Manager or Parent Volunteers).


I forgot my password

You can reset your password via the Sign in button and clicking 'Forgot Password?'.


I forgot my username

Your username is most commonly the email address that you used to register with.


I have logged in, and I can't see my game?

  1. Most commonly your draw has not been created or published. You can tell by checking on your centre website, or on the draws button.

  2. Check with your club/school admin that you have access to the right team.

  3. Ask your club/school admin to send you the login app link again, click on the appropriate link in the app and then log into the app again.
    ​​​​​​​
  4. If this still does not resolve your issue, please note your username, the device you are using, and the Version of the App you are running (click the menu at the top right-hand side to find this). Give this information to your club/school administrator.  They can contact our support team on your behalf with details of the Club/School, Team, and your user details so we can investigate further.


What happens if on game day no-one has the app to score our game?

We recommend that more than 1 person in the team is given Scorer access for their team. For example, a player that is reliably at your games can provide their phone to a substitute on the side-line or a volunteer who could score on the app just like they normally would on a paper card.  Paper cards will still be available at the control room if all else fails.


Do you have to be online/using data to use the app?

​​​​​​​Only to select a team or submit a final result, everything else can be done offline on game day. Please note, your score will not be submitted to the Netball Centre until you reconnect to data/Wi-Fi. If you are unable to login to the app the first step is to check you have data/are connected to Wi-Fi. You could do this by browsing to a website on your phone, or by opening another app. 


​​​​​​​FAQs for Selecting Game Day Teams

__________


Do we have to select our team in the App?

Selecting your game day team is an important part of the process in monitoring player eligibility. If a game day team is not selected, you can still score the game, but the goal statistics will not be counted against a player, and we will be unable to count this game towards your "games played" tally for finals.


How do I add a Game Day Player?

You can add a game day player IF your Centre has enabled this functionality, and if it has, whether it has been enabled against the specific grade(s) that you want to add the player on the day to. If enabled, when selecting your game day team there is a button on the bottom left called "Add player". If you click this, you can then choose to add a "Game Day Player". Complete the Game Day Player registration form to add the person to the team for the game.

Please note, your Centre may have another process for recording game day players, where they are not added directly via the scoring app. Please check with your Centre first if you have any queries. 


A player doesn't appear for selection in my team in the App.

Players must be registered AND placed in a team by a club/school official in order to be selected for your team. We recommend your club/school advises all teams who they should contact within your club/school if you receive a late registration that needs to be placed into a team urgently.


What if we don't have a full team?

You can leave a position blank when submitting your team sheet.


What do we do if we need to borrow players to make up our team?

You can select other players from your club/school to play in your game day team by clicking the "Select from other squad" option. The player's normal team and grade will display in the game day team sheet for both your team and the opposition. Normal eligibility rules apply.


What if we don't know what positions we are playing until right on the bell at the start of the game?

Assign the positions that you know prior to the game, then you can make changes or add positions after the game starts using the "My Team" button.


​​​​​​​FAQs for Scoring the Game

__________


My phone died or I need to leave in the middle of the game while I am scoring, what do I do?

Before your phone goes flat, request someone else on the team logs in and "catches up" to the score that you are keeping.  They can submit the final score on their own device, and you can "delete" your record of the game. If all else fails, the other team should also be keeping score on their own devices OR you can keep the score manually on a piece of paper and update the app later on.


How do I track odds and evens and centre passes?

The app does this all for you. Select which team has the 1st centre pass at the start of the game, and after each goal is scored, the app will confirm who should now have the centre pass. At the end of each quarter/half, confirm if the last centre pass was "taken" and the app will swap the odds and evens as necessary, and tell you which team has the first centre pass of the next quarter. 


Are two scorers required to score the game?

No. If each team has a scorer, both scorers will score for both teams. If there is only one scorer, they can submit the score for both teams. 


Can there be two scorers for the same team?

No. There can only be one active scorer for each team operating at once. For example, there cannot be a team manager making substitutions on the App, and another person scoring for the same team. 


My app is showing the end of quarter/half score in Red. What does this mean?

​​​The app performs checks of your score submission vs the opposition team score submission to confirm your scores match.  If the score displays in Red, this means there is a conflict in the score. When the score changes back to Green, this indicates both teams have the same score recorded.


The score I am adding is not showing as a live score on the Website.

The team on the left of the draw is considered the "live scorer" so their results will update to the website.


The app crashed, what can I do?

Trouble shooting tips to try if this happens.

- Log out and log back in.

- Hard close down the app and login back in.

- Ensure if prompted you have updated to the lastest version of the app.

- Set your phone to airplane mode and score offine. You can still score the game when offline. Then when you are back in reliable internet coverage reconnect and your result will be uploaded.

- Delete the app and reinstall.

- If none of the above suggestions resolve the issue please complete this form. This reports your issue to our technical team to investigate further.
