There are two types of profiles in your Household: Account Owners and Player sub-profiles. So what's the difference?

A Player Profile is an account sub-profile for an athlete that should be tied to a registration and/or the roster. A player profile will not have a login to the account and can only be created during registration or when added to a roster.

Guardians can be added to a Player Profile.

An Account Owner Profile is the profile for the owner of the account, typically the parent or guardian of athletes in the Household. This profile should not be tied to registration and/or the roster unless the account owner is also an athlete or coach. The account owner profile will have a login to the account, full access to edit the account, and the ability to manage other sub-profiles.

Guardians cannot be added to an Account Owner Profile. However, an account owner profile can be added as a guardian for a Player Profile.
