Joining a Team Leaderboard challenge? You’ll need to add yourself to a team to start tracking progress. Here’s how to join—or switch—teams before the challenge begins.
📝 Important Notes Before You Start
You must join a team to participate in a Team Leaderboard challenge
You may only change teams before the challenge starts (depending on your challenge settings)
📱 How to Join a Team
Open the Stridekick app and go to your dashboard
Scroll to the Challenges section and find your Team Leaderboard challenge
If your challenge hasn’t started, it’ll be near the bottom. If it has started, it should appear near the top.
Tap the Join a team or Join or create a team button
You’ll see a list of available teams:
Tap the green [ + ] next to a team name to quick join, or
If you prefer, tap the team name to view participants first, then tap Join team
You’ll see a confirmation message once you’ve successfully joined
Your selected team will now appear on your challenge page
🔁 How to Change Teams (Before the Challenge Starts)
If your challenge allows it and hasn’t started yet, you can switch teams:
Open your challenge from the dashboard
Tap Change team
Leave your current team and return to the team list
Follow the same steps above to join a new team
⚠️ Once your challenge begins, you may not be able to switch teams—this depends on your challenge settings. To be safe, join or switch before the start date.
