Mode: Competition Management Menu: Competition >> Seasons settings |
A season is a way of designating a competition to a time period which ultimately ends up in a finals series and winner. There can be several seasons setup for each calendar year, by default the two seasons for each year are created. A Shoulder Season i.e. 2010/2011 which is any competition running from within the dates July 1 and June 30. And a Calendar Season i.e. 2010 which is any season running within the dates January 1 to December 31.
This page allows you to configure seasons and initiate competition:
At some point before the commencement of the first round (preferably about a month before) the association should also set the current season for all affiliated clubs. This is done by clicking the Set Current button. The normal course of events is for the association to set is own season, carry out team setup, draw creation etc, and then to set the clubs current seasons. This is to avoid setting the club season too early to a season where no matches have been set up yet.
