Guide for Organization Managers (Coaches, Team Managers, Club Presidents)

What's an "Organization" and who manages it?
In Yaatly, an Organization is a speech & debate team, club or society.  Teams, clubs or societies need to create an Organization account on Yaatly to participate in online tournaments hosted on Yaatly.  
Each Organization relies on an Organization Manager--usually a coach, club president or team leader--to establish and manage the Organization's account on Yaatly.  Once this Organization is created, the Organization Manager can invite others to join Yaatly as Participants.
I'm the coach, club president or team leader.  How do I create an Organization on Yaatly?
Sign up for a Yaatly account by visiting yaatly.com.  There you'll be asked to complete a simple registration form:
Yaatly account registration form.
Choose a name for your Yaatly Organization (typically this is your institution's name; i.e.: "Washington High Debate" or "University of the West Literary Society")
​
Enter a name for your Organization
How do I add my Organization's members to Yaatly?
Once you've created your Organization, you’ll be able to invite your Organization’s members and others to join Yaatly and affiliate with your Organization.  Do this by choosing your organization from the far left menu, then selecting “Members.” There you’ll see the “Invite Members” button in the upper right hand corner.
Inviting members to affiliate with your Organization
Entering members' email addresses will send them an invitation to join Yaatly and affiliate with your Organization.  NOTE: we strongly recommend that competitors (students, debaters, speakers, etc.) join Yaatly through the email invitation rather than visiting yaatly.com directly.  Doing so avoids accidentally creating redundant organizations.
