Making the draw

The last step, The draw, offers Seed by handicap (lowest index is seed 1), Random draw (out of the hat) or I'll place them myself (opens the bracket builder). For singles with two or more players, Launch draws the bracket straight away. If the field is not 8, 16 or 32, top seeds get byes.

If the draw is not made yet, open the competition and press Generate bracket. That opens the bracket builder:

  1. Press Draw setup to pick the Seeding method (Handicap, Random, Manual, or Live draw to fill the slots on the night) and the bracket size. You can also add a 3rd-place match or Double elimination.
  2. Drag players into slots and add any byes.
  3. Press Done editing bracket.

Entering a match result

  1. Open the competition. The Bracket tab shows every round.
  2. Tap the match and press Won beside the winner.
  3. Type the score under Result, for example 2 & 1 or 19th hole, and press Save result.

The winner moves into the next round. A Halved match waits until an admin decides it on the outing's Results & prizes tab.

  • To fix a mistake, open the match and choose Clear this result. Later matches that depend on it must be cleared first.
  • Once the bracket is finished, press Edit bracket to change a result.
