Joining a Team
UltiStackr is built around teams. Once you’ve created your account, the next step is to join a team — or create one of your own.
Joining via Invite Link or Code
The most common way to join a team is through a team invite link or 5-character invite code shared by your team captain, coach, or admin. Here’s how it works:
- Your team captain, coach, manager, or owner opens the invite tools from the roster or team settings.
- They copy either the invite code or the full invite link and share it with you by text, email, team group chat, or however your team communicates.
- Open the link, or paste the code into Join with an invite code from the app.
- If you’re already logged in, UltiStackr checks the code and adds you to the team.
- If you’re not logged in, sign in or create an account first. After that, UltiStackr returns you to the join flow.
When the join succeeds, you’ll be added to the team roster and taken to the team dashboard.
Team invite codes are different from beta invite codes. A beta invite code grants access to create an UltiStackr account during the private beta. A team invite code adds a signed-in user to a specific team.
What Invite Links and Codes Look Like
Invite links use the current 5-character team invite code:

Invite codes use uppercase letters and numbers that are easy to read. If a code is invalid or expired, ask a team manager for a fresh one.
Invite Link Permissions
Anyone with the active team invite link or code can join the team as a Member. If you need a different role, such as Coach or Team Manager, ask a team admin to update your role after you join.
Team staff can regenerate the invite code. Regenerating creates a new code and updates the invite link, so old links should no longer be shared.
Don’t Have an Invite Link or Code?
If you don’t have an invite link or code yet, reach out to your team captain, coach, manager, or owner and ask them to send one. Staff can copy the current invite code or link from the roster invite flow or Team Settings.
Only team owners, coaches, and managers can access invite tools. If you’re not sure who to contact, ask around — someone on your roster will be able to help.
Creating Your Own Team
Starting a new team? You can create one directly from the app:
- From the dashboard, tap the + button or select Create Team.
- Enter your team name and optionally set a team slug (a short URL-friendly identifier).
- Choose your team’s basic settings (sport division, location, etc.).
- Tap Create.
You’ll be the Owner of the new team, with full access to all team settings, roster management, and administrative tools.

What Happens After You Join
Once you’re on a team, here’s what you’ll see:
- Team Dashboard — An overview of upcoming events, recent activity, and quick links to key sections.
- Roster — The full list of team members, their roles, and contact info.
- Events — Upcoming practices, games, tournaments, and other team events.
- Chat — Your team’s communication channels.
You’ll also have access to the team’s playbooks, practice plans, game logs, and more — depending on what your team has set up.
You can be a member of multiple teams at the same time. If you play in a club league and a pickup league, or coach one team and play on another, UltiStackr handles all of that from a single account.
