Managing Seasons

Each season of a tournament is its own MyCup tournament, with its own teams, matches, results and plan. The Seasons page keeps them together: open the tournament selector at the top of the panel and click Manage seasons (it is not in the sidebar). The link shows to organisers who may manage the tournament's seasons.

The Seasons page#

• Editions lists every season, newest first, with its dates, number of teams and status. It marks the one you are viewing (You're viewing) and the current one (Current · on public site). Click Open on any season you have access to, or Settings on the one you are in.
• Each season's ⋯ menu has Make current (the season your tournament is "on", and the one the public season menu and the Public site tile lead to), Move up / Move down, Tournament settings and Unlink from your tournament. You can also drag seasons to reorder them.
• The page header shows how many seasons there are, the current one, how many of this season's teams are returning, and which season the public site shows.
• The header's main button, Start next season (or Start season 2027), creates the next one. Once it exists, the button opens it instead. See Start next season.

The tournament's name comes from the season you are in. Rename a season in its Tournament settings and the other seasons follow.

Sales across seasons#

When your tournament is part of a series, the Seasons page also compares sales season by season:

• Sales by season — leads, converted, conversion %, confirmed and collected value per season.
• Pacing — confirmed teams (and revenue) by days before kick-off, this season against up to three earlier ones, each aligned to its own start date. "6 ahead of last season at this point" tells you at a glance whether you are on track.
• Conversion by source — which channels turned leads into teams, season by season.
• Returning teams not registered yet — clubs that played last season and have no entry or lead this season. Add as lead creates one with source Returning team and last season's contact, ready for a call. Contacts show only if you can see last season's participants.

Money figures follow each season's own plan and your access to it — a season you can't see the finances of shows its team counts only. See Sales pipeline.

Add a tournament you already ran#

If you ran last year's edition as a separate tournament, click Link existing tournament in the page header (in the ⋯ menu on a phone), choose it, choose where it goes in the order (by default, by its start date), and whose website look to keep. It becomes a season: its teams, results and website stay exactly as they were, and its clubs and players are added to the library.

A tournament can be a season of only one tournament, and you must be an organiser of it. It keeps its own plan: the 30-day demo of a paid plan is only for a season made with Start next season, so linking or reordering seasons never adds or removes one.

Unlink or delete a season#

• Unlink from your tournament makes a season a standalone tournament again. Nothing is deleted. Unlink all seasons, at the bottom of the page, does the same for every season; each one keeps its teams, results and website, but the shared public address stops working.
• To delete a season completely, with its teams, matches and results, open that season and use Delete season in its Tournament settings. When a tournament has two or more seasons, that button deletes only the season you are in.

What every season shares#

The organiser team, invoice details, website brand, website address, website language, the search-engine setting and venue details are shared by all seasons: change them in one and the others follow. The full list is in Start next season.

On your public website#

All seasons are one website at one address. Visitors who open it land on the current season (or, while its website is switched off, the latest season whose website is on); earlier seasons stay on the same site under /season/… (for example /tournament/porto-cup/season/2025), so QR codes and links you shared keep working. A link to an earlier season's match or team page redirects to that season. You find and copy the address in the Website Editor under SettingsWebsite address.

When more than one season is published, your website's top menu shows a season menu, in the same style as the divisions menu. Visitors pick a season and land on its home page. Seasons whose website is switched off are not listed.

Switching between tournaments#

Use the tournament selector at the top of the panel. Its Season row lists this tournament's seasons (with Manage seasons and a + to start the next one), Your tournaments lists the others (with a search box once you have ten or more), and New tournament is at the bottom of it.

Plans and seasons#

Each season has its own plan. A new season after a paid one gets a 30-day demo of the same plan; see Which plan the new season is on. While the demo runs, a banner at the top of the panel reminds you, with a link to buy the plan for this season.
