How to plan with the tournament calculator

The calculator runs the same scheduler as the Event Planner, so you can test a venue booking before you commit to it. You can use it and share a plan without logging in.

Before you start

• To create the event from your plan, you need to be a manager of an organization on Dodgeball Hub.

Steps

1. Open the Calculadora de Planificación de Torneos and choose your question. ¿Cuántos equipos? works out how many teams fit in your venue time. ¿Cuánto tiempo? works out how long the teams you expect will need.

   

2. Set the Canchas disponibles, the Número de días and the Horas por día you have the venue for.

   

3. Set the Número de divisiones. With ¿Cuánto tiempo?, also set how many teams each division has.

   

4. Leave Programación concurrente (eficiente) on to let divisions share the courts at the same time. Switch it off for Programación consecutiva, where divisions take turns.

   

5. Read the answer. ¿Cuántos equipos? shows the most teams that fit. ¿Cuánto tiempo? shows how many hours the games need and whether they all fit in your days. If they don’t, add days, hours or courts.

   

6. To hand the plan to someone else, such as whoever books the venue, click Enviar este plan a alguien. The link is copied and shown in a window. Anyone who opens it sees the same plan and can create the event from it.

   

7. When the numbers work, click Crear este evento. If you manage more than one organization, choose the one running the event.

   

8. The Event Planner opens with Torneo already chosen. Fill in the first step as for any planner event, then click Siguiente.

   

9. Your divisions, team counts and courts are already filled in, and your game timings carry over to the next step. Choose each division’s Categoría de división and Tipo de Balón, then finish the wizard.

   

What to do next

• Follow Create a planner event for the rest of the wizard.
