Overview


Congratulations, you have successfully logged-in to the website.

The website menu system consists of three levels and each level corresponds to one the colored bars surrounding the banner at the top of the page. The top menu bar is red and is located immediately above the banner. The 8 menus on this bar are referred to as main menus. To open a main menu you simply place your cursor on its name and it opens into a list of all available options on that main menu. Altogether there the 8 main menus offer nearly 50 separate "level 1" choices.

Each level 1 choice can have its own set of "level 2" sub-menus and each level 2 sub-menu, can have its own set of "level 3" choices. The first main menu, aptly named Main, includes a total of 5 level 1 menu items. These 5 menu items have 20 different level 2 sub-menus, totaling nearly 50 different level 3 menu items.

The level 2 sub-menu bar is also red and is located immediately below the banner. The level 3 menu bar is blue and is located immediately below the level 2 sub-menu bar. Menu selections are made from top to bottom i.e., level 1 to level 2 to level 3. The level 2 sub-menus populate conditional on the level 1 choice and similarly, the level 3 menu items populate conditional on the level 2 sub-menu choice. Some level 1 choice have a single level 2 default and some level 2 sub-menus have a single level 3 default. In all cases, the default content will be loaded into the browser window (scroll down to see full content). Once a level 1 choice is made, the user can toggle among level 2 choices w/o re-selecting the level one item. Similarly, once a level 2 choice is made, the user can toggle among all available level 3 choices, conditional on the existing level 1 and 2 choices, w/o reselecting the level 1 and 2 items.

A brief tutorial on website navigation is available to all users at Help > Navigation.. To navigate there using this shortcut, place your cursor on the Help menu (located on right of top red menu bar). This will open a drop-down menu and click Navigation. All main menus work in this fashion.

The Help menu referenced above is oriented towards the website i.e., navigation, site content (coming soon) and how to tips, but it also explains everything there is to know about website access, from the mechanics of how each league participant is automatically provided a personal log-in when they are added to their club/team on the website to the different level of access privileges accorded club/team participants based on their league "status". If you have questions about website access, including how to retrieve your personal log-in or change your password see Help > Access.

If you want to do something on the website but can't figure out where to go or what to do once you get there, consult Help > Website Tips.

Getting Started is a help menu but it is different from the Help menu described above because it provides league specific help as opposed to website specific help. It is also a level 1 menu. It has a level 2 menu, located on the middle menu bar (red) and to the immediate right of the Getting Started default tab (Intro) that brought you here. They other level 2 sub-menus are:

As can be seen from this list, Getting Started provides separate tabs for club reps and team manager/coaches where the role of each in providing the league with the information necessary to fully customize the league program to each team's preferences. The role of each is further divided into four steps and each of those steps is a separate level 3 menu choice. By dividing this information in this manner, users only need to read the material that is directly pertinent to their role, saving everyone a great of time.

The website includes many functions to help make league participation as easy as possible. Getting Started > The Website provides a brief introduction to many of those functions. Getting Started > Managers/Coaches > Others provides a brief introduction to many of the communication tools available on the website, categorized according to the league status of both the sender and the recipient(s).

The menu items under [Administrators] and [Managers/Coaches] is a tutorial on the subject of registration, divided into 4 sub-topics: basic club/team information that is required [activation]; entering your team's ENYTB program choices [registration]; supplying your team/field scheduling inputs [scheduling]; and, entering your team roster [roster]. A 5th category of [Other] is available as well. The difference between the content under these two tabs is that each is from a different perspective. The first is from the perspective of the club owner/rep (administrator) and his responsibilities. The perspective of the second is that of the manager/coach and his responsibilities. If you click on the tabs on middle bar menu, you are provided a brief introduction to the material presented on the menu items under that tab.
