Teams

The Teams page manages team structure within events. Teams represent factions, sides, or organizational units that participate in events.

Team Types

Type Description
Event Team A faction or side created for gameplay (e.g., Blue Force, Red Force). Assigned to specific events.
Team Affiliation A real-world team identity (e.g., unit name). Names are stored in UPPER CASE.

Team List

Navigate to Teams in the sidebar to view all teams. The list shows:

  • Team name with color swatch
  • Team type (Event or Team Affiliation)
  • Max member count
  • Active/Inactive status

Use the + Create Team button to add a new team.

Creating a Team

The team creation form uses an accordion layout:

Team Details

  • Team Type — Choose Event Team or Team Affiliation
  • Name — Unique team identifier (e.g., "Alpha Team", "OPFOR")
  • Description — Purpose and role description
  • Color — Hex color for visual identification on maps and UI
  • Max Members — Maximum team capacity (leave blank for unlimited)

Editing a Team

Click Edit on any team to open the accordion-based edit form with two sections:

Team Details

Same fields as creation, plus an Active toggle to enable/disable the team.

Members

  • View current team members with their roles
  • Search and add users by name or email
  • Remove members from the team

Team Colors

Team colors appear throughout the platform:

  • Tactical map CoT markers (when using MAGK color mode)
  • Team selection checkboxes in event and mission forms
  • Scoring displays and leaderboards
  • Roster management views

Assigning Teams to Events

Teams are assigned to events through the Teams accordion panel on the event create/edit page. Select teams using the checkbox cards — each shows the team name and color swatch.

TAK Integration

Teams map to TAK server groups for CoT message routing. When a roster is finalized, TAK group assignments and Mumble voice channels are auto-provisioned to match the team structure.

Note

The backend API uses "group" terminology for TAK protocol compatibility. The UI displays "Team" consistently.
