Hi,

I'm organizing this tournament with my friend and I have some questions.

first we play 2 series of 6 teams each, and the best 4 teams of each series qualify for the knockout. Just like a world cup.

the problem is, how can I set the knockout so the teams play in the order I want?

Is there any option if this is not possible?

thanks guys.

2 leagues with a fixed schedule followed by a seperate knock out tournie would probably be your best option.

you can use tourneyfillers and swap the teams in on the place you want them

Now Gritter, he aint causing no trouble....

On a serious note, its a family site so best watch the language.
And Harvest Mouse is correct imho.

Sorry bout that, I agree with harvest mouse. But my problem is how do I actually swap the teams after creating the knockout, I can't quite get that.

Thanks!

there is a button replace team when you have created the tourney and the team swapped in needs to not be in the tourney

Try the "replace team" link. which will be there next to the config options of a tournament, note that it is unwieldy and require several team replacements.

I think you need to invite the teams with the invite teams button.
