Answers

How do I find friends?
On every page, there is a search field on the right side. Enter what you know from your friend, first name, last name, maybe a team they play for, and click the Go button. A list of both athletes and teams that match your criteria will be returned to you. Find the person you are looking for and click on their picture or name to go to their zProfile page. You will only be able to view their public content until you become friends with them

How do I get someone, who already has a zAthlete account, to become my friend?
After searching and finding the person you want to connect with, you need to request access to your friend's network. Either you click the small sign to the right of the person on the search page, or you click the " Request Access" link on your friend's zProfile page. You can add a short note to go with your request. Either way, your friend will be notified and can grant you access. As you are not accepted yet, the application will show "Access Pending"

How do I invite someone to join zAthlete and become part of my network?
From any page, click on the "Invite a Friend" link in the upper right portion of the screen. Enter up to ten friends' emails and click send. An email will be sent to them, requesting them to join zAthlete, and when they do, they will automatically become part of your network. You can even add a personal note to the email that goes out to them

How do I know when another athlete has granted me access to their network?
We will email a message to your email address that you signed up with. There will also be a message in your updates box on your zAthlete Home Page.

How do I know when someone is requesting access from me?
You will receive a notification which will show on your home page. Typically you will also get an email message on the email address you signed up with, but this is something you can change in the settings.

How do I accept someone into my friend's network?
To grant someone access, you can either click on the accept link in the notification message that we sent you. Alternatively you can go to the my zFriends tab, find the person in the first box, and click the accept button.

Where can I see all the people I am friends with?
Click on the "my zFriends" link in the header. That will bring up a list of all your friends

I am connected to other athletes, now what?
Now the fun really starts, first of all you can share photos and videos, you can challenge your friends to a game, you can create events and share those with your friends, you can comment on their profile or albums etc. etc. It is a great way to keep in contact and share your most memorable moments.
