Moving Players Between Drafts

When to Use This Feature

This feature is perfect for:

• Moving undrafted players from Majors to AAA
• Transferring players from AAA to AA after the AAA draft
• Any situation where players need to move to a different division's pool

How to Import Players from Another Draft

1. Go to the destination draft

   Open the draft where you want to add the players

2. Open the Players tab

   Scroll down to find "Import from Another Draft"

3. Click "Select Source Draft"

   A modal will open with your available drafts

4. Choose the source draft

   Select the draft you want to import from (e.g., "2025 Majors")

5. Select players to import

   By default all undrafted players are selected. Uncheck any you don't want.

6. Click "Import"

   The selected players will be added to your draft's player pool

What Gets Imported

When you import players, the following information is copied:

• Full name
• Rating and ranking number
• Age (LL Age)
• School
• Previous team and coach
• Pitch count
• Availability flags (swim team, other sports, etc.)
• Teammate and special requests

What's Reset

Some information is intentionally reset when importing:

• Draft status - Players start as undrafted in the new draft
• Pre-assignments - Coach kid assignments don't carry over (different teams)
• Draft position - Round and pick number are cleared

Tracking Where Players Came From

Each imported player gets a note added automatically:

This helps you remember which players came from another division's draft. The note appears in the player's detail view.

Selecting Specific Players

You don't have to import all undrafted players. In the import modal:

• Use the checkboxes to select/deselect individual players
• Click "Select all" to toggle all players on or off
• Review player ratings and ages before importing

This is useful if some players have aged out or aren't eligible for the new division.

Important Notes

• Players are copied, not moved

  The original draft's data is not changed. Players remain in the source draft (as undrafted).

• Only undrafted players can be imported

  Players who were drafted in the source draft won't appear in the import list.

• You must own both drafts

  You can only import from drafts you created (or if you're a super admin).

• Duplicates are possible

  If you import the same player twice, you'll have duplicates. Delete the extra if this happens.

Typical Multi-Division Workflow

Here's a typical workflow for a league with multiple divisions:

1. Create and set up your Majors draft
2. Import all eligible players for Majors
3. Run the Majors draft
4. Create your AAA draft
5. Import AAA-specific players
6. Import undrafted Majors players into AAA
7. Run the AAA draft
8. Repeat for AA, etc.
