Give the option to invite non-friends to challenges

[TreforS]

Give closed group administrators the option to invite anyone from the group they admin to a challenge without having to become friends with them first. 

Just add a group tab to the add players page. 

This prevents admin group Led competitions becoming a nightmare waiting on members to accept friend requests ect..

Why can't people just join a group challenge, or some specific goal challenge, with out having friends?

Hi @Swish52, thanks for explaining why you would like to have the option to give the option to invite non-friends to challenges. Thanks for sharing your feedback. I've moved it into a similar request.  A lot of users are asking for this option, I hope we receive updates soon.

It would show us statistics about workouts and activity on a daily basis. We could challenge with others in the same challenges, get badges and so on. Like Garmin. It should be that way.
