BOOKING IN

JJAC uses the SPOND app for all our events.
Booking a space for your junior angler could not be easier once you have registered.

How to correctly register children and guardians using a

group link or group code:

It is important that you enter your information in your own profile, and

only the child's information in the fields directly under the child. If the

child does not have their own email or phone number, leave those

fields blank for the child. Enter the guardian's contact information in

the fields under the guardian for the child.

⚠️ NOTE: Joining a group via group link or group code only works on

smartphone. If you only want to use a PC, you must receive a group

invitation from an admin in the group.

Select "I am a parent"
In this step, enter the child's name, date of birth and other fields about the child person.
In this step, you can add more guardians and determine the visibility of your contact information
(If you want the child to also use Spond themselves, you can add the child's contact information at the bottom here. This must match child's own email and phone number. In this case, the child must create their own profile)
Select Done
Your request to join the group has now been submitted and you must wait for a group admin to accept you. You'll receive a notification when you are approved.

Register children and guardians when invited to a group

It's important that the admin adds the child as a member and enters the parent's contact information in the fields for parents. The parent's email or phone number should never be entered directly on the child, but in the fields for this under "Guardian" for the child. If the child does not have their own email/phone number, these fields should be left blank for the child.

If you have not yet created a profile, you will receive an email from noreply@spond.com with the subject "Welcome to *group name* on Spond" — open this email and click on "Respond to group invitation"
If you already have the app, open it and go to the Groups tab. Then you'll see a text at the top "You've been invited to *group name* "
Check that the information on the page that opens is correct
Select Accept
You can now access the group and view its content by downloading the app or logging in to your profile

How do you add multiple children (siblings)?

It's no problem to have multiple children in the same group on Spond. A guardian can have an unlimited number of children in both the same group and different groups, where they can respond on behalf of all their children—from one single profile.

What's important here is that the children are added to the group without an email address and phone number; this information should only be filled in under Guardian.

The children must be added one by one as individual members of the group, and the same guardian can be set as the guardian for both/all children.
