How to put a referee or staff member on a game

Each game on the Calendrier page has its own Arbitres and Personnel buttons. Use them to put someone on one game, or to change who automatic assignment chose. The people and teams you name yourself stay when you assign referees automatically again; a place such as a seed doesn’t.

Before you start

• You need to manage the event or its schedule, or its referees for Arbitres and its staff for Personnel.
• Referees come from the Arbitres page (see how to add referees and see their workload), and staff from the Personnel page (see how to add staff and volunteers).
• If referees or staff are locked, the button is hidden: unlock them first. See how to lock parts of your event.

Put a referee on a game

1. On your event’s Calendrier page, click a game. Its card shows what you can do to it, such as Arbitres and Personnel.

   

2. Click Arbitres.

   

3. Click Choisir un arbitre. The list shows your referees under Arbitres, then the teams of this game’s division under Équipes. A referee marked • Arbitre déjà sur ce créneau is on another game at the same time and can’t be picked. The other marks are explained below.

   

4. Pick the referee. To add another one, click Ajouter un arbitre in the window and pick again.

   

5. Click Enregistrer.

   

Put a staff member on a game

1. With the game still selected, click Personnel.

   

2. Click Choisir le personnel and pick the person. Each is shown with their role. To add another one, click Ajouter du personnel in the window.

   

3. Click Enregistrer.

   

4. Press Esc to put the game’s buttons away. Its card names its referees, then its staff with their role. If the cards are too small to show them, zoom in with the magnifier buttons at the start of the toolbar.

   

Change or remove someone

Click the game, then Arbitres or Personnel again. Pick someone else in a row to replace that person, or click the bin (Supprimer) beside the row to take them off, then click Enregistrer.

What the lists warn you about

The Arbitres list checks this game and the others at the same time:

• A referee already on another of them can’t be picked, and is marked • Arbitre déjà sur ce créneau.
• A team playing in one of them can’t be picked, and is marked • Actuellement en jeu. A team refereeing another one is marked • Arbitre déjà sur ce créneau, but you can still pick it.
• Referees whose Types de balle leave out this division’s ball aren’t listed.
• The list can also offer places, such as a seed or the winner or loser of a playoff game; the team fills in once it’s known. A place decided after this game starts can’t be picked, and is marked Décidé après le début de cette partie.

The Personnel list checks nothing. Once you save, the schedule’s warnings catch the rest: a referee or staff member on two games that overlap, or one whose account also plays at that time, a team refereeing while it plays, or a referee on three or more games in a row.
