If you wish to forward emails to another account, go to “Help” and follow the instructions for
“Forwarding mail to another email account automatically”.
You can forward emails to multiple accounts.
Use this procedure if you wish to set up a number of email addresses in the names of junior players.
Record the user names and passwords safely and use the email addresses to create individual accounts
on the National Player Database.
Emails sent through the NPD email service, to the junior players, will be automatically forwarded to the
email account of the parent(s)/guardian(s).
Gmail has been used as an example but any email service may be used.

Select an email address and password for the new account. It may take a couple of attempts to obtain
an unused account name but adding “01” to the end of the name e.g. sarahjane01 usually works.

email from the new account.
Forwarding mail to another email account automatically
Once the new account(s) are set up, change the settings so that an email received by the new account is
automatically transferred (forwarded to) to your main account.

What is a QR code?
A QR code looks like this:
A QR Code (it stands for "Quick Response") is a smart phone or iPad (tablet) readable bar code that can
store website URL's, plain text, phone numbers, email addresses and pretty much any other
alphanumeric data.
Storing up to 4296 characters they are internationally standardised under ISO 18004, so a QR code is a
QR code all over the world - they've been big in Japan forever, broke into Europe and the UK a few years
back, and are now getting real traction in USA.
Think "print-based hypertext links" and you'll get the idea.
Install the free app “Qrafter” to scan QR Codes if you have an iPhone or iPad and use the free “i-nigma”
bar-code reader for Android phones or tablets.
To use the app, target the QR code using the phone camera and the associated web page will open
automatically.
Tennis Ireland will use more QR codes on its publications to allow smart-phone and tablet users faster
access to relevant web pages.
