FAQ
Questions tournament directors ask.
Can players register without creating a SyncReserve account?
Yes. Guest registration captures the data needed for the event and follows up later with an account invite if you want to convert entrants into members.
How are partner pairings handled for doubles events?
Players can register with a named partner, request matching, or join a partner pool. Pairing flows happen before bracket generation.
What happens if a match needs to be rescheduled mid-event?
Move the match to a new court or time slot from the event console. Both players get a notification; downstream rounds adjust automatically.
Can leagues run for a whole season with weekly standings?
Yes. League formats track weekly results, standings, tiebreakers, and playoffs. Players see their schedule and current standing from their player portal.
How does prize money reach the winners?
Prize amounts post as account credit on the player ledger by default — usable for future bookings or programs. Optional external transfer via Stripe payouts for cash distributions.
