Seasons

A season is a stats container for a span of time — it lets you keep, say, a Spring 2026 leaderboard separate from the all-time one. Seasons come in three kinds.

Club, organization, and global seasons

• Club season — created by a club's organizer for that club and sport. Use it for "our Winter league season." Managed under Club → Seasons.
• Organization season — created by a sanctioning organization for its member clubs to share. Member clubs attach their events to it, and the standings roll those events up across every club in the organization. Managed by the org's owner under Organization → Manage → Seasons. See Affiliating your club with an organization.
• Global season — a site-wide, sport-wide season spanning every club. These are managed by Skoryd admins and are ideal for cross-club rankings or open circuits.

Each season has a name, a date window (start and end), a status (draft, active, completed), and optional champions.

What counts toward a season

A match counts toward a season in one of two ways:

1. Official events — an organizer explicitly attaches a club league or tournament to a club season. Those events' matches count directly.
2. Date window — any qualifying match played within the season's dates counts. This is how Quick Play games and global seasons are included, since they aren't tied to a single event.

So a club season includes its attached official events plus that club's Quick Play in the window; a global season includes any match of that sport, at any club, within the window.

Organization seasons count by explicit attach only. A member club picks the organization season for one of its events (it shows up grouped under Organization — name in the event's season dropdown), and only that event's matches count. Quick Play never rolls into an organization season. You can only attach an organization season if your club is an approved member of that organization.

Because an organization season is for that organization's official events, selecting one automatically marks the event as sanctioned by that organization and your club's assigned region — the "Sanctioned by" picker fills in and locks. To change it, pick a different season (or "No season").

Add weekly events

Many clubs run a season as a weekly series — every league night is its own mini-tournament with its own bracket and winner, but the results roll up into one season leaderboard. Instead of creating each night by hand, open the season and click + Add weekly events.

The wizard creates one tournament per week:

• Pick a series name — each event is named after it with a week number (for example, Tuesday Night Singles — Week 1, Week 2, and so on) — plus a first date, the day of the week it meets, the number of weeks, and a start time applied to every night.
• Add skip dates for holidays — a skipped week pushes the series one week longer so you still get the number of events you asked for.
• Choose the format and scoring (schedule type, singles/doubles, points, boards, fee) once; it's applied to every week. The sport is locked to the season's sport.
• A live preview lists every date that will be created and flags any that fall outside the season window.

Every event is created as a draft, so players don't see it yet. Open registration on each week when you're ready, then generate that night's schedule or bracket as usual. Need a one-off change to a single week? Edit that event on its own — the wizard just saves you the repetitive setup.

Season leaderboards

Anywhere you see a leaderboard — global Stats, a club leaderboard, or either Quick Play page — there's a season picker. Choose a season to filter the standings to just that window; clear it to see all-time. The picker shows each season's date range so you know what you're looking at.

Organization season standings have their own page: open the season from Organization → Manage → Seasons and click View standings. It rolls up every event member clubs have attached to that season.

Seeding from a season

When you generate a bracket, a season can be a seed source — seed an open tournament from a global season's standings, or a club playoff from a club season. See Brackets & seeding.
