Add a division

A division is a single draw inside your competition: "Men's A", "U14 Mixed", "Office Ping-Pong". Each division has one sport, one entrant kind (teams, individuals or pairs) and one format.

The division wizard

1. Open your competition and press Add division.
2. Pick the sport and variant — this decides how matches are scored.
3. Pick who plays: teams, individuals or pairs.
4. Choose a format — league, knockout, groups + knockout, and more. Not sure? Press How this works next to any format for a diagram and a live example, or read the format guides.
5. Review and create. Nothing is locked until you start scoring, so experiment freely.

Common questions

Can I change the format later? Yes, up until the division starts. After that the structure is locked so results stay fair.

How many entrants can I add? Per division: 64 on Community, 256 on Pro, unlimited on Pro Plus. An Event Pass lifts one competition on its own, and it comes in two sizes — 128 under the M size, no limit at all under L.

How many divisions can a competition have? 4 on Community, 10 under an M pass, 20 under an L pass, and as many as you like on Pro. Archiving a division gives its slot back only if that division never recorded a result — archive and delete has the detail. A division you set up wrongly and never played costs you nothing to throw away.

The wizard refused my division — why? It names which of two things happened. "This competition is finished, so no new divisions can be added to it" means the competition's status is completed or archived; set it back to Live if the event is still running, or start next season's competition (finishing a competition). An upgrade panel instead means the division limit is full — and when archived divisions are what's filling it, the panel says so underneath (archive and delete).
