Scoring made simpler.

After each match, the results of that match can be captured as a scorecard. A scorecard records each player’s contribution to the team or as an individual captures the match results and reflects a team’s or a player’s performance. The following section explains how match results can be updated in PLAYINGA and how to publish them.

Before we get into the finer details on how a match result gets updated, there are few important points to keep in mind.

Access Restrictions:

Only the match administrator has permission to enter scores and publish match results. In any match, the match creator is the match administrator. For matches in a tournament, the tournament organizer is the person who shall have the permissions to enter the scores for tournament matches.

Entering scores and publishing results:

Go to match listing page by clicking on Matches sub-tab in your profile page. The match listing page now displays a list of your matches including upcoming matches and past matches. To know more details about a scheduled match click on the Match name.


Then, navigate to the specific match page and click the Scorecard sub-tab to enter the match scores.


If you are the match administrator for a specific match, you shall see the Enter Score button and Forfeit Match button. Click on Enter Score button and select the appropriate scoring format to record the scores.



After clicking the Enter Score button, a pop-up will appear where you can enter the match scores.

Note: For detailed steps on how to enter the scores for any sport like Hockey, Badminton, Soccer, Tennis, Table Tennis or Cricket refer the respective sport section.


After entering score, click on save score. By default, the admin enter and publishes the score, but you can change how the scores are approved using the Participants Scoring option. This lets you send the score to players, admin, or the opponent for approval if needed.

After entering the save score button, Click Publish button to publish the match results. If you need to make changes, click Edit Score, update the score, and then click Publish.

A confirmation pop-up will appear — click 'Confirm' to publish the results.

Forfeit Match

If the match was forfeited, select the Forfeit Match button. Choose the match result, enter the points, and select a reason from the list. Once done, click the Publish button to confirm.

Note: Once the scores have been published, they become visible in the feeds section of the participant players’ profiles and as feeds for the friends of them.
