← Registration

Before you start

You cannot register for BR Assistant unless you already have a Blackout Rugby game club and login.

You also need a specific manager username inside the game. If your account still says New User, set your manager name first.

If you created your club with Apple or Google sign-in, follow this guide to add an email/password login and set the manager username before using the portal registration form.

  1. Create your club in Blackout Rugby

    Create a Blackout Rugby club first. Choose a club name, pick the club country, and select the sign-up method you want to use.

    The email option creates a normal email-and-password login. The Apple and Google options create a single sign-on login that may start with a generic manager name.

  2. Check whether your manager name is generic

    If you used Apple or Google sign-in, your account may show the placeholder name New User. BR Assistant needs your real in-game manager username, so change it before registering.

  3. Open the Blackout Rugby account site

    Visit blackout.rugby and choose Account from the top menu.

  4. Sign in with the same method

    Use the same sign-in method you used when you created the club. In this example the account was created with Apple sign-in.

  9. Set a password for the game account

    Enter a new Blackout Rugby password and click Submit. BR Assistant will use this only to verify the game account during registration and sign-in; it does not store the game password.

  10. Recover the password if sign-in fails

    If the account website does not accept the password, use Forgot password? and follow the recovery flow for the email attached to the game account.
