If a club shows no teams at all, it has none published for the chosen season — try another season in the picker before assuming something is wrong.

Following teams
Following a team puts its games into your Home rows and your calendar. It takes two presses.
This guide covers how to reach a team from the Search tab, how to follow it, and how the Following tab separates the teams you have a role in from the teams you simply follow. Roles come from the club — the TV only displays them.
Finding a team
Teams live under their club. Search for the club first, open it, and you get its teams as a row you can scroll sideways. Two pickers above the row narrow it down by season and by gender, which is useful for a club running many age groups.
Following a team
Open a team and the club badge, club name and team name fill the top of the screen. Underneath sits a Follow button with a heart.
1. Open the team from its club
Select the team in the club's row. The team page opens with its own replays, livestreams and highlights below the header.
2. Press Follow
One press is all it takes. The button disappears once you are following, and the team starts appearing in your Home rows and calendar.
The Follow button is hidden for teams you already have a role in. You do not need to follow a team you coach or play for — its games reach you through the role instead.
The Following tab
The Following tab is where everything you are connected to is gathered. It has two groups, and within each one the teams are grouped by season.
Teams that you have roles in
Teams where you are registered as a player, coach or other official. These come from the club's records, not from anything you do on the TV.
Teams you follow
Teams you have followed yourself, with the Follow button.
Roles versus following
The difference matters when something looks missing. A role is assigned by whoever administers the team, in the app or on the web — there is no way to give yourself one from the Apple TV. Following, by contrast, is entirely yours and you can do it from here.
If a team you play for is not listed under your roles, that is a question for whoever manages the team's squad, not something the TV app can fix.
When it is empty
With no roles and no follows, the tab shows a short message instead of empty headings. That is the expected state for a brand-new account, and it clears as soon as you follow your first team.
What's next?
With teams followed, the next step is watching a game.
