Playtype - Direct cup play (no group play)

NOTE: A common mistake is to select only cup play for categories to play ordinary group and cup play. Do NOT do this mistake! Cup play are only for very few special situations.

  • As default, all categories play a group play and some also go to a playoff to decide winner and other positions.
  • It is possible to seed teams directly into a cup play, without first a group play. This is most often done in sports using a kind of ranking/seeding system, typical volleyball.
  • Result registration and so on are the same as default play (that is group play first)

How to do this?

Preparing
  1. Show the column "Play type" by right click the column header some place and drag column "Play type" up as a new column.
    TIP: After this column is shown, click "Save layout" in top right corner of the grid. The TXO will remember to show this column when you enter this menu later for this tournament.
