What is player onboarding?
Player onboarding is how a player joins a team in your league. In Clubucket a team admin adds the player and pays the league's fee; the player accepts the invite, signs the waiver and gets their own portal, without paying anything themselves.
Registering players usually means forms, emails, payment chasing and paper waivers. It's slow for teams and hard for the league to audit.
Clubucket turns it into one step for the team admin and one for the player, with the league's rules enforced along the way.
