Adding and Registering Family Members

This guide shows you how to add family members to your account and register them for tournaments without needing separate logins.

Adding a Family Member

There are two ways to add family members, but the most natural method is during tournament registration.

1. Go to the Registration Page – Start signing up for a tournament. Pick a section and click the blue "Select Section" button
2. Click "Add Family" – This will let you add a new family member
3. Enter Their Details – Fill in their name and any required information.
4. Save the Family Member – They will now be linked to your account for future registrations.

Managing Family Members

To view or edit family members:

• Go to your Account settings.
• Scroll to the "Family Members" section.
• Here, you can edit names or remove family members if needed.

Additional Information About Family Members

• While a family member is linked to a member of a club (via tournament registration), you will receive tournament-related emails on their behalf.
  • ? If you have multiple family members registered, you will receive only one email for all of them.
• You can view tournament and game history for family members linked to your account.
• A family member’s account can be claimed later when they want full control.
  • The easiest way is for them to create their own Chess Nut account and provide their email to a club administrator.
  • The admin can link the email to their member record and send an invitation to join, allowing them to take over their full history and access past tournaments.
