Managing Your Roster
Adding Players
Add players at any time — you do not need a complete roster before logging game data.
- Navigate to Roster
- Tap + Add Player
- Enter first name, last name, and jersey number
- Select positions — mark primary and secondary positions
- Tap Save
Players appear on the roster immediately and are available in all loggers.
Positions
Select all positions a player can play. The defensive lineup builder uses position data to suggest alignments — a player only appears as a candidate for positions where they have been marked.
Standard positions: P, C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, LF, CF, RF, DH, UT
Jersey Numbers
Jersey numbers are used to distinguish players in analytics displays and on report cards. Numbers do not need to be unique — if two players share a number both names appear and are distinguishable by their full name.
Editing and Correcting Records
Open a player profile and tap Edit to change any field. Changes apply going forward — historical game data is not retroactively altered when you edit player information.
Archiving vs Deleting
Archive — use when a player leaves the team mid-season. All historical data is preserved. The player is hidden from active roster views and loggers but their stats remain in team analytics for the period they were active.
Delete — permanently removes the player and all associated data. This cannot be undone. Only delete players who were added by mistake and have no real game data attached.
Re-ordering the Roster
The roster displays alphabetically by last name by default. Drag players to reorder if you prefer a different arrangement — batting order, position group, or jersey number order.
Bulk Import
Contact support at support@playlytics.app if you need to bulk-import a roster from a spreadsheet. This is available for Organization plan subscribers setting up multiple teams.
