Adding a guardian to a child’s sportsengine account


When you register a child for GYL via SportsEngine, you have the chance to add multiple guardians.

Only registered guardians will be able to view the child’s account details including the schedule via the SportsEngine app. GYL cannot add a guardian to your child’s account.

Please follow the instructions below and if you have any issues please reach out to SportsEngine directly.


Guardian you want to add / access schedules via app

  1. If you haven’t already done so, download the app (links at bottom of page)

  2. Create an account for new guardian via the SportsEngine app first

  3. (now the Primary account holder has to add you and when that is done you will get an invitation to be added to the child’s account; once you accept you will have access via the app)
