# Add coaches to registration

Coach registration is optional. Some meets require it, others don't. If the meet you're registering for includes coach levels in its price list, this is how you add them.

## Prerequisites

* [Find and select a meet](/registration/find-a-meet.md)
* [Add your gymnasts](/registration/add-gymnasts-to-registration.md) first

## Option A: Import from your club

1. In the registration sidebar, click **Coaches**.
2. Click **Import from Club**.
3. Select the coaches you want to register.
4. Assign each coach to a **coach level** (these are registration tiers with pricing set by the organizer).
5. Review and click **Add**.

## Option B: Add a coach manually

1. In the registration sidebar, click **Coaches**.
2. Enter the coach's name and details.
3. Select a **coach level**.
4. If the meet requires it, enter a **certification number**.
5. Click **Add**.

## How validation works

Coaches go through the same kind of checks gymnasts do:

* **Required fields** must be filled in: name, coach level, and certification number (when the meet requires one).
* **Duplicates** are blocked. A coach can't be registered twice for the same meet.
* **Level validity** is checked. The coach level you pick has to exist in the meet's configuration.

If you're not sure which coach levels are available or what they cost, check the [Price List](/registration/review-meet-details.md) for this meet.
