Edit your Contact Data

To add or edit your contact information, as a match official, navigate to Account Settings in MyCOMET. From here, you can change the phone number and e-mail address associated to your User Account, and this is the data that will be presented on Match Officials panel to authorized users.

Your User Account contact details don’t have to be the same as ones in your person profile. The contact data from the person profile will NOT be shown on Match Officals panel

Push Notifications

The system sends push notifications during time-sensitive transitions in the match official workflow whenever the admin takes action, and the match official needs to be notified.

Match officials receive notifications once the respective Admin set their Appoitnment into one of the 3 key match statuses: PENDING, CONFIRMED, and CANCELLED.

When a match official's status is set to PENDING, further action is required—either to confirm or decline the appointment. In this case, a notification is sent, prompting the official to respond.

Conversely, if the match official’s status is set to CONFIRMED or CANCELLED, a notification is sent to inform them of their current status. Tapping on this notification opens the Match details page.
