Running a season

Create a league and season, build the districts, generate fixtures and schedule matches.

A league is a competition that repeats (for example, the national league). Each year or term it has a new season, and every season is made of stages that run one after another.

1. Create the league and the season

  1. Open Competitions and create a league.
  2. Under the league, choose New season. Give it a name (for example "Winter 2026") and a format:
    • Districts → play-off → knockout: the standard format, with all three stages ready.
    • Empty: you add and arrange the stages yourself.
  3. Choose the knockout size. It must be a power of two, for example 16 or 32.

2. Set up the districts stage

  1. Open the season, then the districts stage.
  2. Check Stage settings: frames per match (4), points for a win, draw and loss (2, 1, 0), direct qualifiers per district (2), overall table size (32) and the tie-breaks.
  3. Use Add district for every district, for example "Kfar Saba" or "North".
  4. Open each district and use Add players. Only players who aren't already in another district of this stage are listed.
  5. Click Generate fixtures. Everyone meets everyone once, and the matches are split into matchdays so each player plays once per matchday.
Tip If a district has a manager, they can add the players and generate the fixtures themselves. Invite one from the district page with Invite a district manager.

Results in the districts

A league match is 4 frames, so the valid results are 4–0, 3–1 and 2–2 (either way round). A win is worth 2 points, a draw 1 and a loss 0.

Tie-breaks

When players are level on points, the tie-breaks are applied in the order you choose. The default is: points → head-to-head → frame difference → frames won. Head-to-head builds a mini-table of the matches between the tied players only, so it also works for three or more players.

3. Schedule matches

  1. Open a match (from the district page or the schedule).
  2. Under Schedule, enter the date, time, venue and table, and click Save schedule.

The Schedule page shows all matches of the next 90 days, and every member can switch to My matches. About 24 hours before a match, players with an account get a reminder by email or SMS (when sending is set up for the platform).

4. During the season

  • Results come in from players and wait in Approvals. See Results and approvals.
  • Removing a player from a district also removes their unplayed matches. Played matches stay.
  • Restart on a stage regenerates all of its matches. Use it only before results start coming in.

5. Finishing the districts

When every district match has a result, click Mark completed on the stage, then open the play-off stage and start it. Continue with Qualification, play-off and knockout.
