Import from a Tournament

Last updated: July 8, 2026

Import from a tournament copies data from one of your other tournaments into the one you're working on. It's the companion to Start next season: if some data didn't fit when you first created the new season, upgrade your plan and import the rest here — any time.

You'll find it in the dashboard under Settings → Import from a tournament. It only appears when it's useful — that is, when you have at least one other tournament to import from and the current tournament is still open (it's hidden once a tournament is finished).

What it does#

  1. Pick one of your other tournaments as the source.
  2. Choose what to bring in: Teams (with players & staff), Divisions, Venues, Referees, Structure & rules, and Website design & blocks.
  3. Click Import.

MyCup adds the selected data to your current tournament and shows a summary of what came across.

What to expect#

  • It respects your plan. Imported teams and divisions are added up to your current plan's remaining capacity. For example, if your plan allows 8 teams and you already have 2, you can import up to 6 more. Upgrade your plan to bring more across.
  • It won't overwrite what you've built. Structure and website settings are only imported when your current tournament doesn't already have them. If you've already set up a structure, importing structure is skipped (the summary tells you), so your work is never replaced.
  • Results aren't imported. Only the setup data comes across, not scores or match events.
  • Your tournament's own identity stays yours — its name, season, logo and sport aren't changed by an import.

Typical flow: create next season → upgrade the new tournament → open Import from a tournament → pick last season's tournament → import the teams and divisions that didn't fit the Free plan.

When it's not available#

Importing changes your tournament's setup, so the page is hidden once a tournament is finished — import into a tournament while it's still active. It's also hidden if you don't have any other tournament to import from yet.
