Slams lets you run a tournament without Excel hassle. You pick a format, add the participants, and Slams builds the schedule automatically. This article walks through the basics.
Step 1: start a new part
In your dashboard go to Competitions and click New. The wizard first asks what kind of event you are organising (a single tournament or a larger event with several parts) and which format you want to play.
Step 2: pick the format
Not sure which format fits? Use the format finder on the formats page. For a social, casual setup an Americano is ideal; for a classic tournament with a winner, pick a group stage + knockout.
Step 3: participants and courts
Add the teams or players (or let players sign up themselves via a link) and set how many courts you have. Slams spreads the matches fairly across the courts.
Step 4: generate the schedule
Click Generate schedule. Your tournament is now ready with all rounds and matches. While you play, you enter the scores and the standings update automatically.
