Player List
A team page can be displayed in two different layouts
However, each of the team layouts displays the team roster on right. To determine what players to display you must assign a player list to the team. To do that navigate to Players → Player Lists and create a list. The main thing is that you need to select a team
Once it’s done navigate to Teams → Your Team and enable the player list you created by checking in the Player List section.

To rearrange the sections or disable some of them navigate to SportsPress → Settings → Teams → Layout and use drag&drop to rearrange the sections or click on the switch box to enable or disable a section.
