How to create a planner event

The Event Planner walks you through five steps. Most answers can be changed later in the event’s settings, so you don’t need final numbers to start.

Before you start

• You need to be a manager of an organization on Dodgeball Hub.
• Have your dates and venue ready, plus a rough idea of how many teams and courts you’ll have.

Steps

1. Open your organization’s Event Planner and click Create Planner Event.

   

2. Choose Tournament for a competition played over one or more days, or League for games spread over several weeks.

   

3. Pick a plan. Each card shows what’s included and the platform fee taken on payments. You can start on Free tier and change plans later.

   

4. Enter the Event Name, the Start Date and End Date, and the Location. If another organization runs the event with you, choose it under Co-hosting Organization.

   

5. Choose how teams register. Through Platform takes registrations and payments on Dodgeball Hub. External Link sends teams to your own sign-up page instead. Then click Next.

   

6. Click Add Division and fill in the Division Category, Ball Type, Division Name and Max Teams. Add a division for each level or category you’re running. The playoff options under each division can stay as they are for now.

   

7. Enter the Number of courts you’ll play on, then click Next.

   

8. Set the Game Length and the Break Between Games. Turn on This event will be live streamed if you’ll stream games. Click Next.

   

9. Choose when registration opens and closes, the registration price, and any requirements such as a waiver. Click Next.

   

10. Check the summary. Click the pencil next to any part to go back and change it, then click Create event.

    

11. Your event opens in the planner with a first schedule already built from a default blueprint. Until teams register, the divisions show numbered placeholders in their place.

    

What to do next

• Change the number of courts if your venue changes.
• Share the event page so teams can register.
