NEED SUPPORT WITH THE FA'S TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS?
Find out below what support is available to grassroots volunteers in Lancashire.
Grassroots Technology Knowledge Base
The FA have produced a series of self-help guides and articles via their ‘Grassroots Technology Knowledge Base’, which now includes a 24-hour answer bot to support volunteers. This can be found in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen.
Grassroots Technology Known Issues
Complementing the Knowledge Base is the ‘Grassroots Technology Known Issues’ page. Divided into sections relating to all aspects of FA Technology, it lists issues currently being investigated, including updates on the progress towards a resolution from the Grassroots Tech Team. Anyone encountering issues with FA tech, should check here first to see if the matter has already been reported.
