How to build your tournament management

1. 1

   Describe the job

   Build brackets and match progression around reviewed results and disputes.

2. 2

   Review the first version

   Choose how the tournament organizer records the competition and how the result reviewer reviews the next step.

3. 3

   Refine the views

   Ask First to adjust the fields and views for the people who will use the app.

4. 4

   Test before sharing

   Walk through the process with a sample record and check who owns the next action.

What to include in your tournament management

• Keep the competition in context

  Keep competition, entrant, bracket, match result, dispute and progression together so the next person can understand the request or record.

• When the next step needs a decision

  A match result is disputed before the next round is generated. Keep progression pending a reviewed result rather than advancing both entrants.

• Keep progression visible

  Keep the disputed result separate from confirmed progression to the next round.

• Choose what each person needs

  Give the tournament organizer a working view and the result reviewer a review view. Keep competition and entrant attached to the decision as the work moves between them.
