In most cases, the levels of admin required have increased significantly and sports teams are looking for all the help they can get.

Administrators can instantly search and filter the athlete database to check individual profiles for specific information. The database can be filtered by sport, team, athlete name, athlete status, student number, or email address. Comments and file attachments can be added and shared with coaches or other departments within the organization. It is also possible to update an athlete’s profile to record their latest medical, academic or CCES certifications. With many organized sport and recreational activities now requiring COVID vaccine certification, it is good to know that there is an online management platform out there that can log the required documentation. Any proof of vaccination documents shared by athletes and coaches can be attached to the relevant profile and stored securely within the system. The information in the athlete database does not necessarily need to be added manually either. Univerus Sport & Recreation software seamlessly imports data from external sources such as
