Handle tournament results
Open Manage tournament → Competition → Results. The workspace lists matches that need attention first — disputed results, then submitted results, then matches with no result — so you can work through the queue.
Report a result
Section titled “Report a result”Open a match and enter the score. If the match uses a scorecard, fill in the lines the app shows; otherwise choose the winner. Submit the result when the competitors and score are correct.
Reporting a result does not make it final. It creates a submitted result that still needs confirmation.
Confirm, dispute, or void
Section titled “Confirm, dispute, or void”| Action | Use it when |
|---|---|
| Confirm result | The score is correct. This makes it final. |
| Dispute | Something needs review. Explain what, and the result is held. |
| Void | The result should not count. Explain why. |
Disputes and voids require a short reason. Confirming a result is what makes a match decided and advances the winner.
Correct a scoring error
Section titled “Correct a scoring error”When a result is wrong, use the correction flow rather than rebuilding the draw. Corrections keep the match, its participants, and its history intact.
You cannot void a result once a later match already depends on it. Resolve disputes forward by confirming a corrected result instead.
Forfeits
Section titled “Forfeits”A forfeit records that a competitor could not play. Open the match itself — from the schedule, the bracket, or Run — and use the forfeit action when the app offers it.
A forfeit is recorded as a result, so it follows the same confirmation rules. It does not withdraw the entry from the tournament. If a team is leaving the tournament entirely, use disqualification instead.
How advancement works
Section titled “How advancement works”When a result is confirmed, the winner moves into the next match automatically. Nothing needs to be re-published:
- In a bracket, the winner fills its slot in the following match.
- A bye advances automatically without a result.
- Pool standings update from confirmed results.
- Matches with no result stay undecided and block completion.
