Changing the Match Schedule

Select the Published League to change:

Click on Withdraw Publication:

Click on confirm to unpublish:

Click on Reset Schedule:

Click on Confirm:

Click on Manual Fixture Draw:

Now for the troublesome divisions, figure out strategies to resolve the scheduling issue.  eg can you change the position of the teams in the divisions to the same position number or different position numbers.

Then, as per before - The next step is to create the Match Schedule.  This button will now be available for the League in Competition Builder / Leagues / Selected League.  At the bottom of the page, selected Create/Repeat Match Schedule.  This takes a minute or so.

To view how many matches are scheduled at a club you need to produce a Match Day Overview Report or a Court Availability Report. 

Match Day Overview Report

The Match Day Overview Report provides a simpler view of the matches using the Sort feature in Excel.  Select Reports and then Report Info & Favourites.

Select page 2 and the Match Day Overview report:

Ensure the assocation and child organisations (ie the clubs) are selected and enter the season start and end dates and then Run Report:

Download to Excel and open the file.  Despite only selecting our association, the report will show other association details.  Under Data in Excel, click on the League Name column and then select Filter.  You than can filter to only the WMGTA 20xx/yy League Name.  Then Sort the data by Match Date and Facility Name.  Scroll through the list to see if matches exceed available courts at a club in a given week.  Alternatively you could send the report out to the Club Representatives and ask them to verify.  Club Representatives can also run this report for themselves.  It is only likely to be clubs with a high number of teams that may have a problem. 

Publishing the League

If all clubs are within court capacity, you can select Publish League to publish the League to Match Centre.  The competition should now be appearing in players Match Centre accounts.

 

You can repeat the above as many times as you like until you get a schedule that works.
