Many famous championships and competitions are in full play, so our new version of JoomSport – WordPress Sports Plugin will be very handy these days.

press release note

We are pleased to deliver several comprehensive core product features in 1.2.x releases:

Ability to create hierarchical seasons. For several-stage competitions, you can use new functionality allowing the creation of season containers that include several child seasons inside—so stats will be collected for all child seasons and can be displayed on one page on FE.

Ability to use match results inside the groups from the previous season (pro version). And even more, there are few variants on how achievements from previous seasons will be used in current ranking. It will be quite suitable for managing championships with several stages. So when the first stage is completed, for example, the best 4 participants continue to compete with each other but only based on their head-to-head results from the previous stage. Check all possible options in the documentation.

Complex matches in Knockout (pro version). Effective feature for creating series of matches between the same participants in knockout (single elimination) type of competition. Let’s consider a quite famous example: the NBA, the major professional basketball league in North America, where currently the Conference Finals are played in a best-of-7 series. The team has to get 4 wins with the same opponent before it will get to the next round.
