Your tournament is now sanctioned and you're ready to launch registration. Here are a few steps to get you started.
Checking your organization's settings
Login to Spordle ID in your tournament organization. If you don't have access, your parent organization (club or region) can give you access. Make sure you have the Tournament Registrar role.
Once logged in, go to the tournament profile and validate the following information. This information will be displayed on the various tournament pages.
Organization logo. (How to change my organization's logo)
Organization name.
Be sure to include the name of your tournament without any mention of the year, as this will be automatically added.
Address of your tournament.
Tournament staff
If you'd like to add one or more contacts to your tournament page, this is the place to do it (see documentation here).
Verifying your merchant account
If you process credit card payments, please ensure that you have the correct merchant account information in your organization profile.
If you already have a merchant account and it is not displayed in the Merchant Account section, please send it to us by opening a support request.
If you don't have a merchant account and would like to process credit card payments, you can open a merchant account by following the instructions here. (Create a merchant account )
Checking competitions
A competition in the Spordle ID platform is a tournament offer for a certain category, division and class. It may have a limited or unlimited number of teams, depending on your needs. It corresponds to a schedule in Spordle Play.
Competitions already sanctioned are displayed in the Competition section of your organization profile.
Important
Approved competitions are available in Spordle ID to register teams. These are the competitions that have been approved by your federation.
Published competitions are those that will be available in the public display and are therefore open for registration to all.
Make sure you are in the right season before checking. Competitions are per season.
Make the following checks for each competition:
Make sure that the correct competitions are listed.
If a competition should not be available, you can delete it if there are no teams entered, or remove the publication date. (See documentation ).
If a competition is missing, you can add it. This new competition will not be available for registration until it has been approved and published (see documentation ).
For existing competitions, please ensure that
the dates are correct;
the number of places is correct;
the team entry fee is correct.
Competition names have been set by default according to the category / division / class requested at the time of sanctioning. This will be the name of the schedule in Spordle Play. If you wish to edit it, you can do so in this section, and it will be synchronized with Spordle Play.
Where to find my tournament
The best place to find your tournaments is on the Spordle page network.
Tournaments are displayed in the Federation and Regional Tournaments tabs, and each tournament organization has its own page. So it's easy for your teams to find you and register.
How to register my teams
A team can be added to a tournament if it exists in the current season. Registrars must create their teams or rotate teams in order for the team to be available. (See documentation) Note that it is not necessary to have players on the team to register it for a tournament.
Once the tournament has been published, there are 3 ways to register a team for a tournament:
As a tournament registrar, you can search for a team in all existing teams (see documentation);
As a club registrar, you can register a team for a tournament;
As a team, I can register for a tournament.
Only approved teams will be displayed on the tournament pages and in Spordle Play.
Approve my teams
The tournament registrar will be able to track registrations and approvals in the team section of his tournament. Registered teams will be listed in the Tournament Teams section. In this table, the tournament registrar can filter by Competition and Status.
Once the team has been approved, it will be displayed on our pages and transferred to Spordle Play.
Make my schedule and enter my results in Play
In a few days' time we'll be publishing the steps you need to follow to design your schedule.
