How to set up standings

Choose how teams are ranked, the points for a win, forfeit scores and the order of tiebreakers, from the Standings tab of your event's settings.

Open Dodgeball Hub Updated November 13, 2026

The standings rank each division’s teams from their pool play results, and the playoffs are seeded from them. The Standings tab of your event’s settings decides how that ranking works.

Saving doesn’t change the schedule, and the standings follow the new rules right away. Teams already placed in the playoffs move to match them the next time a pool play score is entered, or when you click Sync playoff seeds on the planner’s Standings page.

Before you start

You need to manage the event.
With several divisions, the tab shows one form for all of them until you split it. See how to use different settings per division.

Steps

In your event’s planner, click Settings at the bottom of the sidebar.
Open the Standings tab.
Choose the Standings type: By group ranks each group on its own, Global ranks the whole division in one table. By group, you can also turn on Equal games across groups: when groups differ in size, the teams of the bigger groups are compared with the other groups without their games against their group’s last-placed teams.
Enter the Points per match won.
Set the scores a forfeit records: Forfeit score for the winner and Forfeit score for the team that forfeited. The winner’s score has to be the higher one. They’re filled in when a game is marked as a forfeit, and you can still change them for that game.
Under Standings strategy, drag the criteria into the order you want. Teams are ranked on the first criterion, and each next one breaks the ties left. Remove a criterion with its bin, and add one back from Missing standings items. A coin toss or sudden death game always comes last.
To compare three or more teams that are level differently, turn on Different order when three or more teams are level and order its own list. It can use criteria counted only on the games between the tied teams.
By group, the playoffs are seeded by comparing the teams at the same place in different groups. To use a different order for that, turn on Different order for the same place across groups and order its list. Those teams haven’t played each other, so head to head isn’t offered.
