Managing University Athlete Integration

Our integration with University Athlete (UA) allows coaches to seamlessly transfer tournament events and recruit data from UA to Front Rush! To get started with the FR and UA Sync, email us at support@frontrush.com with your identifying your UA account administrator and that you would like to get started with the sync! 

Configuration Requirements:

  • Your FR/UA sync is configured using your UA account administrators’ email address
  • The sync will be configured in one user's Front Rush account

Once you receive notification that your account settings have been updated, follow the steps below to configure your sync:

  1. Login to your Front Rush

  5. On this screen you will enter your University Athlete Account username and password before designating the information you would like to be transferred to Front Rush 

Initial Sync Date – Determine the initial date you wish to begin syncing information from University Athlete. This will filter athletes and tournaments added to Front Rush based on the date they were created in University Athlete. We recommend setting this at least two years prior to the current date, as this will likely encompass athletes currently being recruited. (Ex: a 2021 recruit may have been created in 2019, so your Initial Sync Date would need to be 01/01/2019)
