Your Blast Motion account type (Player or Coach) and email address are both set during account creation, and neither can be freely changed afterward. Here’s what you need to know before you request a change.
Changing Your Account Type
When you create a Blast account, you choose whether you’re a coach or a player. This can only be changed in one direction: you can convert a Player profile to a Coach profile, but you cannot convert a Coach profile back to Player. If you need to go from Coach to Player, your options are to continue using the current setup or create a brand-new account with a different email address.
Because the system doesn’t support switching an existing profile type directly, changing from Player to Coach (or vice versa) requires canceling your current subscription first:
1. Log into your account.
2. Tap the Profile icon in the top right and scroll down to My Account Settings.
3. Tap Subscription on the left side of the page.
4. Tap Cancel Subscription.
5. Contact Customer Support to finish the system update.
6. Sign up as a coach to start your own academy or join an active one.
Note: A Coach account subscription only covers the individual coach — each player in the academy needs their own separate subscription.
Changing Your Email Address
The username (email address) you create your account with cannot be changed. If you need a different email, you’ll need to create a new account with that email. Your metrics won’t transfer automatically, but they remain accessible by logging into your original account.
FAQ
Can I switch my account from Coach back to Player?
No. Account type can only be changed from Player to Coach, never the reverse. You’d need a new account to switch back.
How do I contact support to finish an account type change?
Visit www.blastmotion.com/contact-us after canceling your current subscription.
Will I lose my swing history if I change my email?
Your existing metrics stay on your original account — they won’t transfer to the new email, but you can still log into the old account to view them.
