# Team Creation and Roster Management
On Challonge, tournaments organizers have the option to create teams of a tournament, manage the roster, and handle the invitations. 

To begin, ensure that you have teams enabled in your tournament settings as seen [here](https://kb.challonge.com/en/article/team-tournament-creation-12sgb6w/).

| Once you have enabled team creation, head to the participants tab. Once there, select "add participant" or "bulk add."
