CANTERBURY RUGBY APP FOR OFFICIALS

The new APP lets you access draws and other great rugby information. Importantly, the APP has an "Officials" section that lets Teams and Referees:

• Create Team Sheets - powered by TeamBuilder to select players

• Score games live

• Submit results directly from the APP

• Results from all games live-stream on APP and websites

​​​​​​​Why?

• Improve the experience of volunteers, administrators and supporters of community rugby

• Submission of results and team sheets/match reports was paper based and labour intensive at the volunteer/administrator level

• Get results out quickly and accurately 

• Visibility of results and standings for supporters of community rugby 

Training for Clubs & School took place in early March 2018 and Clubs & Schools are now using the APP to select their teams and submit Team Sheets, score games live on game day, and submit Match reports.

On this page you'll find Quick-start Videos and User Guides. The Admin User Guide covers set up in Team Builder and allocation of Logins. The 'Game Day Use' and 'Admin Setup' documents are the presentations that were shown at the CRFU training sessions. If your club has APP set-up questions after reading these documents, please contact Fiona Smith on [email protected]

The Rugby Officials User Guide is for:

  • Official CRFU Referees
  • Anyone who will score a game
  • Anyone who will select a "game day" team 

The Club Admin User Guide is for:

  • Club Officials that have access to Sporty Player Registrations and TeamBuilder™.

I forgot my password

You can reset your password via the officials login

My APP doesn't have an officials button?

Check you have downloaded the Canterbury Rugby Union app, not your local club app. Links to the app are above. 

My phone died and I need to submit a team list, what do I do?

  1. Keep a hard copy of the results and enter when you get home
  2. Your club should have given access to more than one person in your team, ask around and submit team list through there
  3. All else fails, here is a template of the team list/sheet/match report

I have logged in, and I can’t see my game?

  1. Has your draw been created? You can tell by checking on the website or on the draws button.
  2. Check with your club admin that you have access to the right team.
  3. Check your team has an active draw.
  4. Ask your club admin to send you the login app link again, click on the approriate link in the app and then log into the app again.
  5. You’re not the scorer of the correct team, or you haven’t been granted scoring access to this team.

Some of my players aren’t there, why?

  1. The players haven’t registered with the club
  2. The players have registered, but they haven’t been loaded into team
  3. Check in other squad, do this by clicking on "select from other squad" in the app and select the players from other teams. 
  4. They’re not registered and cannot play this match. Solution: player needs to register online and club admin needs to assign that player to the team so you can select them. 

It's Game Day and I have a problem that isn’t answered here, what do I do?

  1. Use your second scorer’s phone for this weekend and sort out on Monday
  2. Contact your club administrator in the first instance to check if they can help
  3. If they can’t help, ask your club administrator to contact CRFU
  4. If there is a massive problem, we will put a notification on our facebook page letting you know what you can do
  5. If it’s not working and you are U6-U10, just let your grade advisor know the score and don’t worry about anything else
  6. If it’s not working and you are U11 and above, capture this info in the team list template and send through to [email protected]. We will manually upload the scores onto the website on Monday
