Player Tiers are a simple way to group players into categories during tryouts, like Local, Regional, and National. Once tiers are set up for a tryout registration, you can assign them to players in bulk from the player pool view.
Unlike ratings, rankings, and player evaluations, tiers are not staff specific. When one staff member updates a player’s tier, it updates for all staff.
