🔗 Linking Your Account

Linking your SportEve account to player profiles is the key to unlocking unified statistics across all sports, communities, and tournaments. This is one of SportEve's unique features that sets it apart from other sports apps.

Organisers can issue a valid name-only certificate even if your player record is not linked. Linking before certificates are issued gives you two additional benefits:

• Your SportEve profile photo can be placed on the official certificate instead of a monogram
• The certificate is added to Profile → Stats → Career for later download and sharing

Only your SportEve profile photo is used as the official face. A roster photo uploaded for an unlinked player is not used on a certificate. Add or update your profile photo before the organiser issues the certificate for the best result.

You can link your account from multiple places in the app:

1. From Team Squad

1. Go to a community → Teams tab
2. Select a team
3. View the team squad

You can link multiple player profiles to your SportEve account if you play for different teams or in different communities:

2. Navigate to another player profile (from a different team or community)
3. Link that profile to your account as well

What You'll See:

Cricket Statistics Example

If you've linked multiple cricket player profiles, you'll see:

• Total Runs: Sum of all runs from all linked profiles
• Total Wickets: Sum of all wickets from all linked profiles
• Matches Batted/Bowled: Total matches across all teams
• Batting Average: Calculated from aggregated runs and dismissals
• Strike Rate: Calculated from aggregated runs and balls
• Recent Matches: Last 10 matches from all linked profiles

When you link your account to a player profile in a cricket tournament with leaderboard enabled, you automatically earn SportEve Points (SPs) based on your match performance:

These points are:

• Automatically calculated after each match is completed
• Silently added to your SPs (no intrusive notifications)
• Visible in the tournament leaderboard
• Added to your total SP Points in your profile

I Don't See Any Statistics

• Make sure you've linked your player profile to your SportEve account
• Check that matches have been completed (stats are calculated after match completion)
• Wait a few minutes for stats to be calculated (usually happens automatically)
• Try refreshing the stats page

I Can't Find My Player Profile

• Make sure you've been added to a team squad in the community
• Contact the community admin or team captain to add you to the team
• Check if you're looking in the correct community and team

My Stats Are Not Updating
