SKED abbreviates venue and location names by default - e.g. 'THS: 1' instead of 'Township High School: Court 1'.
This keeps draws compact, but abbreviations aren't always obvious to everyone viewing your schedules, particularly new participants or visiting teams unfamiliar with local shorthand.
If you'd prefer the full venue and location names displayed everywhere, the 'Disable abbreviations' setting switches this off across your draws, results, and exports.
What it affects
Once enabled, full venue and location names display across:
- Draw and results pages (including shared links)
- The SKED widget on your website
- PDF and CSV exports
The naming is consistent everywhere - on screen and in exports.
How to change it
This setting is applied by Sporty per organisation. Email support@sportsground.com to request it, and we'll switch it on for you. This is available to any organisation using SKED.
Note: Abbreviations remain the better option if space is tight, such as on small screens or in dense draws.
