How to Use Player One Page

Everything you need to know to create and manage your athlete profile

Getting Started

Create Your Account

Create Your First Athlete Page

From your dashboard, click "+ New Page" or scroll to the "Create a new page" section. Enter the athlete's full name and optionally customize the URL slug.

💡 Tip: The URL slug is automatically generated from the name, but you can customize it. If you have multiple athletes with the same name, you'll need to provide unique slugs.

Complete Your Profile

Click "Edit" on your newly created page to add details like sport, position, stats, photos, and contact information. The more complete your profile, the better for recruiting!

Activate Your Page

Click "Pay Now" to activate your page and make it publicly visible. Once activated, your page will be searchable by coaches and recruiters.

Managing Your Pages

Editing Your Profile

You can edit your athlete profile anytime from the dashboard. Click the "Edit" button next to any page to update information, add photos, or modify stats.

Pausing Your Page

The "Pause" button sets your page to draft mode and makes it private, but keeps your subscription active. This is useful if you want to temporarily hide your profile while maintaining access. You can resume anytime.

Resuming a Paused Page

Click "Resume" on a paused page to make it live again. Your subscription remains active during the pause, so there's no need to pay again.

Canceling Subscription

"Cancel Subscription" stops future billing. Your page can remain live until the end of the paid period depending on your plan. You can re-subscribe later if needed.

Deleting Your Page

"Delete" permanently removes your page and stops recurring payments. Your account remains open, but if you want another page later, you'll need to create a new one and pay again.

⚠️ Warning: For most cases, "Pause" is better than "Delete" unless you're fully canceling service. Deletion is permanent and cannot be undone.

Profile Best Practices

Add High-Quality Photos

Include action shots, headshots, and team photos. Good visuals make a strong first impression with recruiters.

Keep Stats Updated

Update your season stats regularly. Recent performance data helps coaches evaluate your progress and potential.

Add Social Media Links

Link to your Twitter/X, Instagram, or highlight reels. Give coaches multiple ways to learn about you and see your highlights.

Complete All Sections

Fill out every section of your profile including academic info, contact details, and athletic achievements. A complete profile stands out to recruiters.

Sharing Your Page

Share Your URL

Your page URL is playeronepage.com/your-slug. Share this link in emails to coaches, on social media, or add it to your email signature.

Use Your QR Code

Each active page includes a QR code that links directly to your profile. Download it and add it to business cards, flyers, or share it at tournaments.

Download Your One-Sheet

The One-Sheet is a professional, printable PDF that contains all your key athletic information on a single page. It's perfect for sending to coaches via email, printing to bring to showcases and tournaments, or handing out at recruiting events.

💡 Tip: Print multiple copies to have on hand at games and showcases. Coaches appreciate having a physical reference they can take notes on.

Recruiter/Coach Features

Creating a Recruiter Account

Click "Get Started" and select "I'm a Recruiter". If you have a .edu email address, your account will be verified automatically. For non-.edu emails, you'll be asked to provide a detailed verification reason.

💡 Tip: Non-.edu accounts typically take up to 24 hours for admin approval. You'll receive an email once approved.

Searching for Athletes

Click the search icon in the navigation or visit /search. Filter athletes by sport, position, location, class year, or search by name. Only active (published) profiles appear in search results.

Saving Favorite Athletes

When viewing an athlete profile, click the star icon next to their name to add them to your favorites. Access your saved list anytime from the Coach Dashboard under "Your Favorites".

Switching Between Dashboards

If you have both athlete profiles and recruiter access, use the dashboard switcher in the navigation bar. Click "Go to Coach Dashboard" or "Go to Athlete Dashboard" to toggle between views.

Advanced Profile Features

Previewing Your Profile

Before publishing, click the "Preview" button in the top right corner when editing. This shows exactly how your profile will appear to recruiters.

💡 Tip: Use preview mode to check formatting, photo placement, and ensure all information displays correctly before going live.

Adding Video Highlights

Paste YouTube, Vimeo, or Hudl video URLs in the video section when editing your profile. Videos will be embedded directly on your page for easy viewing by recruiters.

Downloading Your QR Code

On your dashboard, find the "Download QR Code" button next to active pages. Save the QR code image and use it on business cards, flyers, or display at tournaments for instant profile access.

Adding Social Media Links

In the profile editor, add your Twitter/X, Instagram, and other social media URLs. These will appear as clickable icons on your public profile, giving recruiters multiple ways to learn about you.

Account Security

Password Protection

For security, your account will be locked after 3 failed login attempts. If locked, you'll be automatically redirected to reset your password.

💡 Tip: Use a strong, unique password and consider using a password manager.

Forgot Your Password?

Click "Forgot password?" on the sign-in page. You'll receive an email with a secure link to reset your password. The reset link expires after 1 hour for security.

Email Notifications

You'll receive transactional emails for important account events: verification confirmations, password resets, payment receipts, and recruiter verification decisions. These emails cannot be disabled as they're essential for account security and functionality.
