Joining a team

Joining a team

Many events support teams — department groups, clubs, or open teams created by participants.

If the organizer or a teammate sends a link with a team code (?join_team=...):

  1. Open the link while logged in.
  2. The registration form pre-selects that team.
  3. Complete registration — you are added to the team.

Pick a team during registration #

On the apply form you may see a team dropdown:

  • Choose an existing team, or
  • Create a new team (if the organizer allows open teams)

Some events only allow pre-defined teams set by the organizer — in that case you pick from their list.

Change team after joining #

Some challenges let you switch teams after registration from the apply or team settings page, unless the organizer locked teams.

Team results #

When teams are enabled, you usually see:

  • Individual results on the leaderboard
  • Team standings aggregating member results (often top-N contributors per team)

Competitions #

In-person and virtual competitions may require a team for certain ticket types (relay, team distances). The checkout form includes team selection or search.

Organizer setup #

Organizers configure teams in Challenge settings reference.
