What makes planning tournament series tedious

Running several tournaments back-to-back usually means setting up every event again: typing names, entering teams, coordinating dates.

Every tournament is set up individually

The same work repeats at every event – same teams, same settings.

Dates and names need manual coordination

Match days, names and presets are maintained by hand from event to event.

No overall view of the series

Standings, calendar and results across several tournaments stay scattered.

How to create tournament series in one step

Series assistant with format and rhythm

Set the tournament format, start date, interval in weeks or months, and the end by count or end date.

Names and defaults from the season

Without a naming pattern, each tournament is called "Season name Tournament 1". Start time, match length, break time and courts come from the season settings and can be adjusted in the assistant.

Teams as a fixed roster

Series tournaments start with the season teams. Roster changes carry over to all tournaments that have not started yet.

Overall standing across the series

Points series or league: the standing is built from the completed tournaments of the season.

Set up a tournament series

A checklist for rhythm, roster, results and quota.

  1. 01

    Create the season and choose scoring

    Set the period, teams and scoring model. The dates of a series must fall on or after the season start.

  2. 02

    Configure the series

    Choose the format, start date, interval (weeks or months) and end; check the naming pattern and defaults. With a monthly interval, dates keep the day of the month; for the n-th weekday (e.g. first Saturday), choose "monthly on the n-th weekday".

  3. 03

    Check the quota before creating events

    Every tournament in the series counts against the Fair Use quota when it is created, regardless of its date. If the remaining quota is not enough for all of them, the series is not created. On a monthly plan (5 new tournaments per calendar month) or a one-time purchase (5 per 30 days), a series with more than 5 tournaments is therefore not possible.

  4. 04

    Review the roster and results as you go

    Roster changes flow into tournaments that have not started yet. Complete results after each event and check the overall standing.

Manual series planning vs. Turniermeister

The effort of a series lives in repetition – and that is exactly what the software takes over.

What series planning delivers in practice

  • Create all dates of one rhythm in one step
  • No manual names and settings per event
  • Fixed roster carried into tournaments that have not started
  • Overall standing without manual tables

Example: a cup on the first Saturday of every month

Fictional example: a cup with three tournaments, each on the first Saturday of the month. The series starts on Saturday, 6 February 2027.

  1. 01

    Create the series with the monthly n-th weekday rhythm

    Rhythm "monthly on the n-th weekday" with Saturday as the first weekday, start date 6 February 2027, count 3. The assistant creates the dates 6 Feb 2027, 6 Mar 2027 and 3 Apr 2027, numbered as "Season name Tournament N".

  2. 02

    Deviation: move one tournament

    The March date is not free in the hall. Change it in the quick edit to Saturday, 13 Mar 2027. This applies to that tournament only; the bulk shift by days moves all selected tournaments equally.

  3. 03

    Check roster and standing

    The season teams are stored as the roster of all three tournaments. The overall standing is built only from completed tournaments of the season, using the scoring of the season variant.

The three tournaments count against the remaining quota when they are created. If it is not enough, the whole series is not created.

Frequently asked questions about tournament series

How many tournaments can a series include?

A series may run for at most one year: up to 12 dates monthly, up to 52 weekly. With a two-week interval, up to 26. The number must also fit into the remaining quota of your plan.

What is a points series?

A points series is a season variant that sums placement points per tournament (default: 1st = 100, 2nd = 80, 3rd = 65 …). It suits series with standalone tournaments.

Are my teams taken over automatically?

Yes. Series tournaments start with the season roster. Later roster changes carry over to tournaments that have not started yet.

Can I adjust series afterwards?

Yes. Single tournaments can be changed by date, label and settings. Several selected tournaments can be moved by a number of days together or given the same settings.
