A team's Level is for A and B teams in one division: the strongest go on A. Leave it on Only one level otherwise.

Staff come from the club's coaching staff. If the season asks for a background check or another credential, a coach without one on file is refused a place on the staff, and one whose check runs out is flagged on the team's card. Take off the team removes somebody.

The roster size can be changed later beside each team. The builder never fills a team past it.
