Step by step
Results and training data
- Open Settings → Advanced and scroll to Parent and Athlete Controls.
- Two lists: Parents can see and Athletes can see. Each offers Team meet results, Own swimmer(s) meet results, Own swimmer(s) training analytics, Own swimmer(s) attendance, and Own swimmer(s) workout history. Remove one from a list and it disappears from that role’s app, on the web and in the mobile apps. A team that never set the athlete list gets the parent list for athletes too.
- Save Changes.
The member directory
- In the Member Directory section, set Directory Visibility: swimmers & their parents, coaches & admins, both, or no directory.
- The directory is read-only, swimmers show age only (no birthdates), and each family can hide its own contact info from their Profile settings.
The parent dashboard
- In Parent Dashboard Settings, choose and reorder the widgets families see when they log in: Notifications, Upcoming Events, Volunteer Obligations, Open Invoices, Current Programs, USA Swimming, Bulletin Boards, and Team Website. Volunteer jobs ride on the Upcoming Events rows. Team Website is off by default and only available once the Website Link is on under Website → Theme → Global.
Commit Swimming - Team This one is a web task. Use team.commitswimming.com in a browser.
Common questions
A parent can’t see meet results. Check Parent and Athlete Controls. If “Own swimmer(s) meet results” is off, that’s why.
Can athletes see different things than parents? Yes. The two lists are separate, so you can hide workout history from athletes while parents keep it, or the other way round.
Parents want a team contact list. Turn on the directory for swimmers & parents. Families who’d rather not be listed can hide their own info.
Can I hide billing widgets from parents? You can remove the Open Invoices widget from the dashboard, but families always keep their Payments page.
