JSF Bean Property Not Updated

Question

I have a bean with a field called 'name' and a JSF form that has an inputText mapped to this field. The initial value of the field is well displayed in the form.

The problem is when I submit the form, the value is not updated with the contents of inputText. In the savePlayer () method below, the value of the name is always the "name", not what I typed inside the form input.

bean:

@Named
@RequestScoped
public class PlayerForm {

    @Inject
    private PlayerRepository playerRepository;

    private String name = "name";


    public String savePlayer(){
        Player player = new Player();
        player.setName(name);
        playerRepository.savePlayer(player);
        return "saveUserOk";
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }
}

The form:

   <h:form>
        <h:inputText value="#{playerForm.name}" />
        <h:commandButton value="Submit" action="#{playerForm.savePlayer}" />
    </h:form>

Thanks so much for any help!
