Modifying a draft draw
Teams, fixture time, fixture date, and venue in a draft draw can be modified using the drop-down arrow beside the field you wish to change.
Note: Using the drop-down arrow to modify the teams in a fixture may result in an unbalanced draw if a complete round robin is required.
Click Save to save your changes, or click + Add to Calendar to apply the draw to your fixture calendar.
Modifying Venues
Venues can be modified using the drop-down list of venues or the search function. To use the search function, type in the name of the venue as it’s displayed in Comp Builder.
Adding or Deleting Individual Fixtures
There are occasions where a standard round robin isn’t required and additional fixtures need to be played, or a fixture needs to be removed from the draw. Fixtures can be added to a draw using the + icon next to the Round Number. Fixtures can be deleted by clicking the trashcan icon next to the fixture. It isn’t possible to delete an entire round by deleting fixtures individually, and at least one fixture must remain. To delete an entire round, remove the round date from Phase Settings and regenerate the draw without that date.
Note: Before regenerating a draw, export it first to keep a copy of the fixtures. Also note that regenerating a draw will unassign any officials previously assigned.
Swapping Rounds
You may prefer to play a whole round of games on an alternate date, due to venue availability or other scheduling requirements.
1. Click the two arrows next to the name of the Round.
2. Select the Round that you want to swap with.
3. Click Swap.
Note: If a round has already been played, the round will not be available to swap.
Modifying a Home/Away Draw
SKED displays the total number of home vs. away fixtures for each team in the Draws modal. A fixture is counted as a home game when the team appears on the left of the draw and is playing at one of its preferred home venues.
To amend the home/away allocation, click the two arrows to the right of a fixture. The teams will swap to the opposite side of the draw, and the venue for the fixture will update to the newly selected home teams preferred venue.
Alternatively, use the drop-down arrow next to the team name to select from list of teams.
Note: Using the drop-down arrow to modify the teams in a fixture may result in an unbalanced draw if a complete round robin is required.
Modifying fixture allocations for one team for all games within a phase
Selecting Bulk Edit lets you swap teams with one another for all games within the draw.
Note: If a balanced draw is required - that is, all teams play all other teams once - the Bulk Edit option shouldn’t be used if some fixtures have already been played, to avoid repeat fixtures occurring during the phase.
1. Click Bulk Edit within the draft draw modal.
2. Select the two teams that you would like to swap.
3. Click Save.
Using "Bulk Edit" to swap teams within a Home/Away draw
In a Home/Away competition, using Bulk Edit to move teams into a new position within the draw, will not automatically update to reflect a home preferred venue for the updated fixtures. The original venue assigned to the fixtures will be retained. Using the swap home/away option (twice) will force fixtures to be allocated the home team's first preferred venue without considering if the venue is available. Validation of the venues' availability will occur when the individual fixture is either saved or the draw is added to the calendar.
Keeping the Venue View open on a separate screen makes it easier to see available preferred venues. Alternatively, fixtures can remain unallocated and be moved to a venue in the Venue View once the draw has been added to the calendar.
Modifying a draw once it has been added to the calendar (Section View)
Once a draw has been added to the fixtures calendar, the Comp Builder view will display Added ✔ for that section and the teams will appear greyed-out.
Note: If a draw contains unallocated fixtures, it will display the text 'Added!' to warn you that further action may be required. The text 'Added!' will also appear when a default has been recorded within the draw.
To modify an added draw click Added ✔ or Added! then click Edit Draw and select which dates should become editable (note that played fixtures cannot be edited). Once modifications are complete, click Save or + Add to Calendar.
