New LeagueOne Registration and Team Data Import Tool Cal North recently tested and implemented a new tool in League One that allows registrars to import registration and team data (teams must first be created in LeagueOne prior to i mport). The tool reduces the manual data entry required in the registration process and enables individuals to import data via csv files.

Recently conducted training sessions for league and district registrars on the new Registration Import tool in LeagueOne, are available online for anyone to review. To see how the tool works, click here to view video recordings of each training session, and to download the import user guide from Cal North’s Registrars Page (http://www.calnorth.org/programs/registration/registrars_page/).

Cal North encourages everyone who plans on using the tool to view at least one of the videos and review the guide.

Additionally, prior to using the tool, please make sure to test the tool in League One’s Training Environment (links to the training environment can also be found on the Registrars Page). Testing in the training environment will give you the opportunity to become comfortable with the tool, and will help eliminate mistakes in the production environment.

If you have already attended or viewed one of the training sessions, the tool is currently in LeagueOne’s production environment and can be accessed by all Registrars at the State, League, and Club levels. This includes Assistant Registrars and Registrars with “no printing” access. Cal North hope this new enhancement in LeagueOne becomes an effective and efficient tool for you.
