When such a request for affiliation comes into the «coaching appointment», the sports team can decide which coaches are active and which are not.
1 - Set coach as active: The sports team confirms the request and marks the coach active. The coach will end up in the list of «active coaches».
2 - Reject: Here the sports team gets two choices.
Set trainer «not active». The coach will still have a connection to the sports team. It can be as a past or future coach. The coach now ends up in the list of "inactive".
Rejected - the coach ends up in the list of rejected coaches, and the sports team can remove the coach from their list.
