A competition is a league, tournament, or season. When you create a competition, you select a graphics theme that determines how all overlays and graphics look for matches in that competition. Competitions also store pre-configured match settings (half length, stats tracking, etc.) that automatically apply to new matches.

​

You need to set up at least one competition before creating matches. At minimum, you need one competition and two teams to create your first match.

​

1. Click the Assets tab, then Competitions.

​

2. Click Create a Competition (red button, top right).

​

​

3. Browse the available themes and click Select and Configure on your preferred theme. Take a moment to review how the theme looks during different match moments, including break graphics, in-match graphics, and player graphics, and select a different skin if you'd like to change the color profile. Once you're happy with your choice, click Use this theme (red button, top right).

​

4. Fill out the competition details: select the sport, enter the competition name, and enter a graphics display name (how it appears on overlays). You'll also need to select the age group, gender, and division.

​

5. Upload the competition logo, which is required: click the upload button, crop the image and remove the background if needed, then click Save.

​

6. Upload the primary watermark, which is also required, using the same process as the logo. You can optionally upload a secondary watermark as well.

​

7. Click Create Competition to finish.

​

After creation, you'll see the competition's general settings page where you can edit details, view assigned teams, and configure additional settings.

​

Graphics display name controls how the competition name appears on broadcast graphics. You typically set three versions: Full Name (longest), Medium Name (mid-length), and Short Name (abbreviated). This ensures names fit properly in different graphic layouts.

​

Themes are graphics packages that control the visual appearance of all overlays. Each competition must have one theme. Themes include different skins (color profiles) and determine what graphics look like during breaks, during play, and for player information.

​

After creating a competition, you can edit competition details in General Settings, change the theme using the Theme Instances tab, and assign teams to this competition so they're available when creating matches. You can also configure match settings that automatically apply to all new matches, and add stream destinations and overlay configurations that automatically apply to new matches.
