How to Use RECF Team and Event Registration System (RECFEvents)

Welcome to www.RECFEvents.org! Going forward, RECFEvents.org will serve as the official team and event registration platform for all RECF programs.

Overview

Registration works in stages. Users create Organizations which are designated with a unique base number. Different Teams within that base number are designated with letters. For example, “Organization 1234” could have team 1234A,1234B, 1234C, etc. Note: For Inspire (College / University program), Organizations are designated with letters and can add numbers to designate different teams within their organization.

Event Partners (EPs) will also use this platform to create and post events that teams will then be able to register for. 


Once users have created an account, most actions will take place through the user’s Dashboard, located in the top left corner of the web page. This is where a coach or administrator will manage organizations and teams, and where EPs will manage events.

Creating an Account 


Step 1: Go to www.recfevents.org, and click the “Register Now” button.


Step 2: Create an account using the email address you wish to use. If you would like to claim an organizational base number your organization used last year, you must use the same email that is associated with that organization base number. 

You will also be asked to provide a phone number and a password.

Step 3: You will receive an email verification to the email address used to create your account.  Verify this email address by clicking the link in the email sent to your address. If you do not see the verification email, please check your spam folder.

Registering / Claiming Organizations

Step 1: Please log in, and click “Dashboard” in the upper left part of the page, then click the button that reads  “Register/Manage Organization and Teams.”

Step 2a: For new Organizations- Click the “+Add” button


You will be asked to fill out specific organization information.  After doing this, click “Save”

You will be assigned a random number or series of letters depending on your program.

Step 2b: For returning Organizations- Click the red “Claim Your Organization(s)” button. If the email used for creating your new account matches the email used as the Primary Coach contact (or Administrative Contact in some cases) for an organization registered with RECF last season, you will see your past organization number(s) appear in a list after clicking the button: 


 


Note: If you do not see the team number(s) you expect in the list, first check is that you are using the same email address that was used for the organization last season. If the email address is the same, then it is possible that another user associated with that organization has claimed the number. Please reach out to other Primary Coach contacts or Administrators of that number to coordinate which of you will be claiming the number. Only one user can claim an organization number - please communicate with the other coaches and administrators for your organization to ensure a smooth transition. You can also contact your Regional Support Manager who can work with you to transition the number. 

You will also need to contact your Regional Support Manager to get your Claimed Organization Name changed - it will default to the name of the program and the organization’s base number.
 

Creating and Registering Teams

Create the Team

Step 1: After logging in and creating an Organization, click on “Dashboard” and then the “Register/Manage Organization and Teams” button. On the next screen, click on the green “TEAMS” button next to the organization you wish to add teams to:

You will be asked to fill out the team number, team name, grade level, and anticipated payment type. 

Note:  Team names and anticipated payment type can be changed by the user. Changing the grade level and team letter will require assistance from your Regional Support Manager.

Note:  Team Season Registrations must be paid before the team can register for their first event.
