Here's how Validage can simplify tournament management for you:
- NO MORE sorting through tons of athlete documents or birth certificates.
Make Validage your method of choice to register and validate each tournament participant. Instruct tournament participants to create a profile and order their Sports ID Card to use at your tournament directly on our site. Validage Sports ID Cards will save many headaches during your event including providing a quick way to prove eligibility to play and having their documents stored for future registration. The card can be used multiple times and for any tournament throughout the year. - NO MORE arguments about an athlete's eligibility to play.
Each athlete Sports ID Card will be linked through a QR code to their profile page. The profile page will only show the minimum necessary information needed to identify the player and can not be accessed by the public. This ability to check the player's identity, age and validate that they are on a team's roster will speed up the process of getting players back on the field when their eligibility to play is in question. It will also provide the needed proof to quiet down hecklers on the sidelines who question an athlete and their eligibility to play. - NO MORE complaints of cheating or unethical teams.
As mentioned above, the Sports ID Cards will be linked by QR code to a profile page that will provide proof of age for each player. Our system will protect the reputation of your event by reducing the likelihood of cheating through a regulated process that relies on valid documentation. It will also be easier to track unethical practices and exclude those teams from playing in the future.

Promoting the use of Validage Sports ID Cards for your tournaments will help ensure safety on the field, avoid game delays, simplify the registration process and simplify management of your event.
How Does It Work?
As you promote your tournament, instruct parents or players to create a Validage profile for their child on our website.
Once they order and receive their Sports ID Cards for their child athletes, the cards can be used to prove eligibility to play.
The cards can be used for multiple registrations each season, as long as the card is not expired.
Umpires can scan and validate athletes onsite and access the child's profile if their eligibility to play is in question.

Data Security: Is Information Safe?
Your Private Data
Our website is fully encrypted with SSL (Secure Socket Layer) technology. SSL is the standard security technology for establishing an encrypted link between a web server and browser. This SSL technology protects your information from being intercepted by a third party.
Your Payment Data
To process payments, we selected PayPal because it is the most widely used and trusted consumer payment gateway. Through PayPal you can pay through a variety of methods including PayPal balance, credit card, debit card or bank account. PayPal maximizes the security of your sensitive payment information and is encrypted at the highest level commercially available.
**You do not need to have a PayPal account to checkout**
Children's Online Privacy Protection
Validage is committed to protecting the privacy needs of children and we encourage parents and guardians to take an active role in their children's online activities and interests. This website is intended for adult or adult supervised use. We support and comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Rule ("COPPA"). Under no circumstances are persons 13 years of age or younger permitted to submit content, demographic or billing information. Children under the age of 18 may use this website only with the involvement of a parent or guardian.
What We Do with the Data
During the registration process we ask users to submit copies of birth certificates for each player and a drivers license from a parent or guardian in addition to a current photograph of each player. We also require data to be submitted through our secure data entry forms to organize and streamline the ordering process. The majority of this information is used by our team to verify and validate the individual's identity before creation of the ID card, as this is a vital part of the process. Birth certificates, drivers licenses and address information are stored in our highly secure database and will not be shared with third parties or made available to the public.
In addition to the ID card, an online profile will be created for each player, containing the photo, name, date of birth and other sport specific information required by officials to verify the identity of each player. This information is also secured behind your password-protected account that you created during registration. This data is only available to registered users and is an alternative form of identification in addition to the ID card. The online profile is very helpful in case you misplace your ID card or forget it at home.
*Parents may chose not to have an online profile for their children although this means they must have the ID card on hand at all events or otherwise may be ineligible to participate.
