Star, by Universe Allstar
The right age. A card you can show at check-in.
Parents upload a current headshot and an accepted ID. After review, the athlete has a virtual verification card. Event Producers can require that card at any event they run.
Why it matters
Fair competition starts with the right age.
An older athlete in a younger division is a fairness problem and an injury risk. Star gives families one card to prove age, and gives Event Producers one way to confirm the person on the floor matches the roster.
For athletes and parents
Complete verification once, then show the card at check-in. No digging for a birth certificate in the lobby.
For Event Producers
Require Star at your own events. Coaches and families arrive with proof you can trust before warm-up starts.
The age on the card changes with the athlete
The card shows the athlete’s current age, and that number updates on their birthday. A card is expired if the headshot is more than a year old or the annual plan is unpaid.
How it works
Invite the family. Upload the file. Show the card.
01
The gym or Event Producer sends a link
A coach invites the parent from the gym portal, or shares the Star registration page.
02
The parent builds the athlete profile
Legal name, date of birth, a current front-facing headshot, and one accepted ID.
03
Universe Star staff review the file
Standard review is 3 to 5 business days. Optional rush is a 10-hour review add-on at checkout. The name and birth date on the document must match the profile.
04
The family keeps the card ready
Open the virtual card on a phone at check-in. A new headshot is required every year, including on a lifetime card. If the headshot or annual payment lapses, the card shows as expired.
