How does the South Stars organization communication with me?
In order to receive emails, you need to do two things: 1) create a username and password in the "Create an account" area in the upper left hand side of our website (www.southstarshockey.net). 2) "Become a member" of the South Stars website. If you already have a SportNgin account (for example your player was part of the another team that used SE), you just need to become a member of the South Stars site, since you already have already created an account with SportNgin.
In addition, you can get the SportNgin App and follow one or both South Stars' teams. You can access the calendar and news announcements via the app.

How do I link multiple SportNgin accounts to receive the same messages?
Click here for a video about linking Sport Ngin Accounts.
You may want more than one person to receive the same messages sent from a player's team. You can do this by linking another Sport Ngin account to the athlete's profile. By doing so, the linked account will receive a copy of all messages sent to the athlete. This would be helpful if a parent has a separate Sport Ngin account from their child and would like to receive all messages sent to the child. Also, this would be helpful in situations where parents are in different households and both need to receive the same communications.
Additionally, a Linked Account can view any Private Roster that the Linked-to Account belongs to.
Note: To add a non-member's email address to your profile so they receive emails from the team, click here.

- Click the drop-down list next to your username and select Profile.
- On the bottom left, in the Linked Accounts section, click Add.
- Select the profile that you want to add a linked account to. For example, if you have multiple profiles created for your children and only need to link to one, just select that profile.

Can someone without a SportNgin account receive team emails?
As a parent, you often need to be able to widen your circle of who needs to keep up to date with your player's schedule. You may need to add non-members such as grandparents, babysitters, neighbors, etc. to your contact list so they too can keep up to date with the team schedule. You can add their email address to your profile so they will receive the same email messages that you do.
Note: Coaches and Team Managers can add additional email addresses to a non-member's profile in order to be able to include all players in team communications. However, once that profile owner (e.g. the parent) accepts the invitation and becomes a team member, they will take control what contact information appears.
