# Create Your HuddleUp Account

> Create your HuddleUp Sports account with Google, Apple, or email and get started as a parent, coach, or league administrator.

## Sign Up

1. Open the HuddleUp app ([iOS](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/huddleup-sports/id6752121332) · [Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.huddleup.app))
2. Choose your sign-up method:
   * **Continue with Google** — Sign in with your Google account
   * **Continue with Apple** — Sign in with your Apple ID
   * **Continue with Email** — Enter your email address and create an account
3. That's it — you're in

<Note>
  Signing in with Google or Apple means no passwords to remember — plus you can easily sync your HuddleUp calendar with Google Calendar or Apple Calendar. Make sure to use the same sign-in method each time, as signing in with a different method will create a new account.

## Join or Create an Organization

After signing up, you'll see two options:

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Have a Code?" icon="ticket" href="/docs/families/new-parent-guide">
    Your league or club gave you a code to join. Enter it and you'll be connected to your organization right away.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Create New Org" icon="circle-plus" href="/docs/leagues/setting-up-org">

  </Card>
</CardGroup>

### Joining with a Code

Your code determines your role in the organization:

| Code        | Role   | What You Can Do                                                      |
| ----------- | ------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `JOIN-XXXX` | Parent | View schedules, RSVP, chat with your team                            |
| `COCH-XXXX` | Coach  | Everything parents can do, plus manage teams, events, and rosters    |
| `ADMN-XXXX` | Admin  | Full access to manage the organization, leagues, teams, and settings |

After joining with a parent code, you'll be prompted to add your players and assign them to leagues. Coach and admin codes take you straight to the main app.
