An event is one competition inside the tournament — a single game, category and age group, for example Football · Boys · U-19 or 100 m · Girls · Open. Institutes enter teams per event, and draws, schedules and results are all per event.

Add an event

1. Open Games & Events and click + Add game / event.
2. Optional shortcut: Import from a previous tournament copies an event's settings (format, team size, rules) from one you've run before. You still choose the venue.
3. Fill in Game name, Category (Boys / Girls / Mixed), Age group, Team size, Duration and Default venue.
4. Choose the Format:

   Format	What happens
   Knockout	A single-elimination bracket. Byes are added automatically when the team count isn't a power of 2, and winners advance automatically.
   League	Round robin: every team plays every other team once, and a points table (2 points per win) decides the order.
   Heats (Athletics)	Track or field events with heats, lanes, attempts and finals. See Athletics.
   Group + KO, Swiss	Not supported yet — use Knockout or League instead.

5. For Heats, fill in the Athletics settings card (track/field, entry type, lanes, qualifiers, attempts).
6. Set the Eligibility rules for this event (age, squad size, documents). Leave a field blank to skip that rule. See Eligibility rules.
7. Click Add event.
