Users with Game Tracker access in a Club whose Package includes the Positions resource.

How to do it

  1. Open the Game Tracker and select the positions view when it is available.
  2. Assign a starting Player to a position before the Game begins, or move a Player to another position during the Game.
  3. Save or confirm the change.

Position assignments belong to the specific Game. They do not overwrite the Player's general Membership position. Clubs without the Positions resource can still use Game Tracker for the available squad, score, goals, cards, substitutions and notes controls.
