Note: Transferring ownership also transfers billing responsibility.
Common Questions
Can I have multiple owners?
No, each team has one owner. However, you can give Coaches significant access—they just can't manage billing or team membership.
What if I lose access?
Contact Youth Coach Hub support with your account email to recover access.
Can I own multiple teams?
Yes, you can create and own multiple teams, each with its own subscription.
How do I delete my team?
Go to Console > Teams, select the team, and find the delete option in settings. This is permanent and cannot be undone.
