Chat
3 questions and answers about “Chat” in Football First, the app for football clubs and youth academies.
Which chats are there and who writes in them?
Every team has three chats:
- Team: players and staff. Parents can read it but not write.
- Parents: parents and staff.
- Staff: coaches and club admins only.
The club admin can write in every chat.
Why can't I write in an academy team chat?
To protect children, two rules apply to academy team chats:
- it only opens once the team has two adults (e.g. a coach and a manager or assistant)
- during quiet hours (usually 21:00 to 7:00) adults can't post in it until the morning
How do I pin, remove or report a message?
Tap the message:
- Pin (staff): the message stays at the top of the chat.
- Remove: you can remove your own message.
- Report: pick a reason. The club admin sees the reported message on the Club page and decides whether to hide it.
