Projects

A project is the central object of competition administration. It connects sport, league, season, teams, rounds, matches, positions and templates.

What is a project

Examples:

District League Group B - Men 2025/2026
Youth Cup 2026
Winter Tournament 2026
City Run 2026

Creating a project

Open:

Components → JoomLeague → Projects → New

Important fields:

• project name;
• alias;
• league;
• season;
• sport;
• project type;
• publishing state.

The alias is used for URLs. If left empty, the system may create it from the name.

Project panel

After opening a project, use the project panel.

The panel contains cards for:

• project options;
• page options;
• positions;
• referees;
• teams;
• rounds;
• project export.

Some future features may be visible but marked as planned.

Assigning teams

Teams are not automatically part of a project just because they exist.

Open:

Project → Teams

Move the required teams from available items to selected items and save.

Team order can influence schedule generation.

Assigning positions

Positions define roles used in the project:

• goalkeeper;
• defender;
• midfielder;
• forward;
• coach;
• referee.

Assign only positions used by the project.

Assigning referees

Create referee people first, then assign them in the project panel under Referees.

Project checklist

Before publishing, check:

• project is published;
• sport, league and season are correct;
• teams are assigned;
• positions are assigned;
• rounds exist;
• matches exist;
• frontend menu items point to the correct project.
