Coach: Adding athlete access

The coach needs to grant access to athlete user accounts to enable athletes to log in. This is done in the Sports Cloud.

1. Log in to Sports Cloud at www.firstbeatsports.com

2. Click the top left menu and select Team Management from the dropdown menu.

3. 

   Select the athlete you would like to grant access to. Open the athlete profile by clicking the blue edit icon.

   

4. Double-check that the athlete’s email address has been added to their athlete profile, and add one if it has not. This is also a good opportunity to check that all other profile settings are correct and mandatory fields are not missing.

   

5. When an athlete’s email address has been added to their profile, go back to the Team Management view and click the cog icon in the athlete’s “Cloud & App Access” column. Choose “Send Credentials” from the menu that appears.

   

6. The athlete will now have an email waiting in their inbox with instructions on how to complete the registration process. After completing the registration, the athlete is ready to log in to the app.

Athlete: Completing the registration

To log in to the Firstbeat Sports Athlete app, please complete registration by following the instructions in the email you received from Firstbeat Sports. If you haven’t received an email with the title “Thank you for registering”, please ask your coach to send your Firstbeat Sports credentials to you.

After completing the registration process by following the instructions provided, you will have your own username and password that you can use to log in to the app or to the Sports Cloud.

Next, please download and install the Firstbeat Sports Athlete app from the App Store or Google Play store depending on your device and log in to the app via your mobile device.
