TaekoPlan has an option to create a team championship.

To do so, you have to set it up. The following article describes how to to create one.

 

- In basic tournament settings, select Team Tournament as tournament type. This will setup TaekoPlan for your team championship.

 

 

In the setup weightclasses, set up maximum of 5 weightclasses. At the moment this is a fixed no. of weightclasses. Each team needs to

have 5 competitors. European championships use the olympic weightclasses.

 

Enter competitors

 

Enter the teams and select as sexe either 'Team male' or 'Team female'. This will identify this entry as a team to compete.

 

 

Just select the team and enter the name of the team (copy/paste) also in the Lastname court.

You don't have to enter any additional information for a team.

 

Enter the competitors normal as male/female with the same Team ID as the main 'Team male/female'. This will identify them as team member.

         

.

 

 

Run the wizard

 

The wizard will only create entries for the teams. The individual competitors will not be selected.

 

 

This view shows you that there are 20 male teams and 12 female teams.

 

 

 

Create seeded teams before the draw

 

If you want to seed any team, do this. In a knockout system, the seeds will be on the regular places in the schedule. In a poulesystem the first seeded country will be placed in group A, the second in group B and so on...

 

 

Draw of lots:

 

There are two options to do the draw. You can select the standard automatic draw (knockout) or use the advanced WTF draw to create a poulesystem with additional knockout system.

 

 

Create a draw of lots by running the 'WTF Team draw of lots' menu option

 

This is an automated draw wihich requires a couple of parameters. You have to setup the number of groups and the no. of teams going                through to the knockout phase. You can select the no. of groups and the no. of teams per group to move to the elimination stage.

 

 

Create a regular knockout draw of lots

 

The teams will be drawn normally. This is the standard procedure for the draw of lots.

 

Individual competitors

 

Run the option 'Active tournament/competitors/Team competitors individual' and select the participating competitors for each country.

 

 

You can enter more than 5 competitors for each country and change them during the tournament. But only a maximum of 5 (1 for each weightclass) may be active. You can change competitors during the championship. The change will be reflected in the next match coming up for the team.
You can print sheets to have the team manager enter the change.

Fight planning

 

Run the fight planning as normal.

The major team match will have for instance fight no. 101. The 5 individual fights for the weightclasses  will have no's 101.1, 101.2 etc. upto                101.5.

Fight length

 

 

Set the fight length in the basic tournament settings for a team fight to 5 times the time per fight (10 min.).

 

Visualization

 

 

The team fights are shown in the fight sheet on the screen. Right click on the fight and select 'individual fights'  to see the fights belonging to                the team fight. Here you can also enter results.

 

Scoreboard

 

Results from the scoreboard system will be automatically processed also for team championships.

The fights .1, .2 etc will be visible on the scoreboard.

 

To do:

 

Change the no. of team fights and make it flexible to 1 upto 5 weightclasses.
