Groups and rules

Players can be grouped. This is useful for managing player levels. The default groups are Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced, but you can create your own groups.

Auto-filling​

Groups are used by the auto filling feature to assign players to games. This helps ensure that everyone gets a fair game.

How auto filling works:

  • Players are assigned to courts in pairs based on their group.
  • Assignment will check the rules you've set - for example if you have a rule that Advanced players only play with other Advanced players, it will respect that.
  • Players are given priority based on when they last played and how many games they have played in the current session.
  • If a player has a partner then they will always be assigned to the same court as their partner.

You can manually assign players to courts to override the group settings by dragging the players between courts.

Group rules​

To customize how filling works you can create group rules. For example, create a rule that makes sure the Advanced group members only play with other Advanced group members:

Customizing groups​

You can create as many groups as you need, and you can set the color and shape of the group icon.
