Invitations & Coaching Requests
Track, revoke, approve, and decline every coach onboarding path.
Coach Watts separates direct invitations from public coaching requests. Both can create a coaching relationship, but they begin differently.
Pending invitations
Coaching → Athletes → Pending Invitations lists active coach-generated invitations. Each entry shows its code, optional restricted email, and expiry.
- A share link can be accepted by any eligible athlete who has the link.
- An email invitation is restricted to the invited email.
- Both expire after seven days.
- Use the revoke action to invalidate an invitation immediately.
Creating New Invite or New Share Link does not extend the existing invitation; it creates a new one with its own code and expiry.
Public coaching requests
When your Coach Start Page intake form is enabled, submitted requests appear above the roster.
Each request can include:
- the athlete's identity and submission time;
- their answers to your custom intake questions;
- a notice listing active coaches they already work with.
Select Approve to create the coaching relationship or Decline to reject the request. Review the athlete's answers and existing-coach notice before approving.
Team invitations
Team invites are managed inside a team rather than on the main athlete invitation list. Owners and admins can create staff or athlete codes, restrict them to an email, choose a role, and optionally auto-assign athletes to a group.
Staff can also generate a reusable athlete team link or QR code from the team roster.
Troubleshooting
- Expired code — generate a new invitation.
- Wrong email — revoke the restricted invite and send a new one to the correct address.
- Athlete already connected — use the existing roster entry instead of creating another relationship.
- Team code does not work — confirm the invite is still pending, unexpired, and intended for the signed-in email if restricted.
