# Appointing Team managers to teams in your organisation [BETA]

In some events, entries are handled and managed by a **Team manager** on behalf of the competitors. Examples would be a National Surfing Championships where entries are managed by each State, or a Surf Life Saving competition where entries are managed by a club.

LiveHeats has developed a new tool that allows an Organisation's Director to appoint **Team managers** to the teams in their organisation. Once set, a **Team manager** will be able to edit/manage the entries for all athletes & teams that belong to that team in any current or future events that the team competes in.

|| Note: *This feature needs to be activated on your organisation. To request activation, please contact community@liveheats.com*

2. This list will display any *Team* that appears in any event in your organisation. You might see some *Teams* that aren't currently used - these are from historic events in your account. Soon, we'll add a way for you to archive these.
3. Click on the *Team* that you'd like to appoint a team manager to:

5. Click **Add** and they'll be added as a Team manager for that team and will receive an email. They'll now be able to manage the entries for any **Athlete or team** that represents that Team in current or future events in your organisation:

6. If you wish to remove a team manager from a particular club please select **Remove X** to ensure they are no longer a team manager.   
*Note: This will remove them as a team manager across the entire federation*
