New Feature: Groups

It’s been a little while since I added anything to Tournr, but I’ve been busy working away to get this out, and it’s a big change, a lot has been added setting Tournr up nicely for going forward.

What is a group?

A group is just that, a collection of people it could be an official association (British Canoe Union) a club (Bude Canoe Club), a work group (Tournr Wave Skiers) just a group of friends (Chris’ Mates), anything that can have members!

A group allows you to put all your competitions in one place, so a group can keep track of the competitions it’s running / part of.

What’s in a group?

There are two types of members in a group:

  • Administrators
    • Administer the group, they can add/remove members, tournaments, make new admins, invite people etc
  • Members
    • The people who are in the group, they can suggest tournaments and get access to any of the groups tournaments.

Why bother?

  • It allows you to group all your tournaments together
  • It shows that a tournament that is approved by a group meets the standards of that group (i.e. competitors have to wear a helmet, first aid must be provided)
  • You can create private competitions for your group and all members are granted access to it without needing to invite them in

Future plans

  • All documents (rules and regulations, score sheets etc) can be uploaded and made available to all your members
  • Groups will be able to show rankings from their competitions, by aggregating the scores and dynamically showing them, so when you’re next competition is finished, the rankings are automatically updated

Get grouping!
