You can have as many teams as you want for each age group. As long as you have auto-assignment turned on, children will be automatically assigned to teams as they register. When there are multiple teams for a given age group, you can control whether they are filled up one team at a time, or are all available teams are used. This is controlled by the "round robin" setting on the Event Settings page. (More information on that setting can be found here: What does the "Round Robin" setting do?)


If you have more teams than you have rotation settings, then multiple teams will rotate together as a group. You control which teams will rotate together from the Teams settings page.

I have corrected your account, so you should be all set.


We're still investigating the root cause of the issue.


If you have any more trouble, let us know.

With auto-assignment on, the student is automatically assigned at time of registration. He will never be automatically moved elsewhere, though he would become unassigned if his team were completely deleted.


If you change the grade of a student, you can change the team assignment at the same time. Both age group and team are fields on the edit page.


You also can reassign any students from the "Students" list page in the "People" section. Just check the box in front of that student and select the appropriate "Assign to..." action from the "Select an action" box at the top. You can use the search or filter options to find the student.

Volunteers do not have access to see any data in VBS Director. So, they can't see what positions are filed.


If you wish to encourage people to request certain roles, you could put a message on the volunteer registration form with your needs. You can put a "Display only test field" on the form with your message to new registrants. This message wouldn't be automatically updated to reflect new registrants, but you can manually update it at any time.

No, the automatic assignment happens when the student is registered. Students will not be automatically reassigned later.


If you add a new team, the "round robin" setting would assign new registrants in that new class first, until its enrollment catches up with the other teams for that grade. Then it would go back to rotating through the teams until they're filled.


If you remove a team, any students on that team will become "unassigned" and would need to be manually assigned to a new team.

Sorry I wasn't clear. I meant that you can create a "Simple Text" field and give it a label like "Type your name in the field to indicate your consent"

You're not missing it. There were issues, and we had to pull it back down. We're working on a new version that should be available in the next update in a few weeks.


No. You can do a "click to agree" checkbox, or a "Type your name in the field" on the registration forms, but we don't support any type of more secure cryptographic electronic signature.

Each coordinator can set their own email preferences. That's done on the "Email" page in the settings section of your event.
