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 锦标赛规划计算器 and choose your question. 多少支队伍？ works out how many teams fit in your venue time. 多少时间？ works out how long the teams you expect will need.

   

2. Set the 可用场地, the 天数 and the 每天小时数 you have the venue for.

   

3. Set the 赛区数量. With 多少时间？, also set how many teams each division has.

   

4. Leave 并发排程（高效） on to let divisions share the courts at the same time. Switch it off for 连续排程, where divisions take turns.

   

5. Read the answer. 多少支队伍？ shows the most teams that fit. 多少时间？ 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 将此计划发送给他人. 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 创建此赛事. If you manage more than one organization, choose the one running the event.

   

8. The Event Planner opens with 锦标赛 already chosen. Fill in the first step as for any planner event, then click 下一步.

   

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 组别类别 and 球类型, then finish the wizard.

   

What to do next

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