Frequently Asked Questions
Will others be able to view my team's stats?[
top ]
If you want them to. A great feature of StatShare.com is that it provides access to media affiliates, fans, recruiters, and others. However, if you do not wish to allow others to view your team stats, you can choose to take advantage of our "lock out" feature. If at any time you choose to "lock" or "unlock" this feature, you can. Choosing to "lock" your stat page will not allow others to view it unless you preselect certain individuals to do so (they will get an automatic email with a link right to your stat page when you update your stats). This will be a great feature to provide your media with your updates. Of course, whether you choose this feature or not, YOU and your staff will always be in control of your stat page.
How do I keep track of the athletes that I am interested in following on your site?[
top ]
Once you have signed up for our FREE StatShare.com membership and set up your personal administrative page, you will be able to subscribe to those athletes that you are interested in following. Each time an athlete that you are tracking has their individual stats updated, you will be notified by email of the update(s).
