Create a cup
|
The possibility of creating a cup tournament exists only in leagues that play one league match every week or in VIP leagues.
Depending on how many teams there are in the league and how far it is into the season, the cup will look a little different. If cup ties are supposed to be played over two legs but there are not enough available days left of the season there will be only one leg.
When you create a new cup for your league you will be able to choose how and if the cup should be seeded. Default is that the cup will be seeded based on how far the teams made it in the previous cup. If there hasn't been any previous cups in the league then the seeding will be based on the division levels of the teams. You can also decide from which round you want to have random cup draws. If the cup is seeded from the first round and does not contain exactly 8, 16, 32, 64 teams and so on, the teams that performed best in the previous cup will skip the first round and not start playing until the second round. The lower seeded team will always play at home first if the cup is played with two legs.
When you create a cup tournament most is done automatically. The only choices you can make are whether cup ties should be played over one or two legs and if there is only a single leg whether that match should be played on neutral ground. The cup will start on the first available day. Any friendly games booked for that day will be cancelled.
The link "Create Cup" which leads you to the page where you create the cup is in the league admin menu.
