Combination System
Competition Admins and Managers can create and manage competitions organized as Parent and Child competitions (competition elements). This is often used when the competition needs to be organized in phases (e.g., groups, playoffs) and when the data settings of the parent competition need to be transferred or copied to its competition elements (Child competitions).
Parent competitions serve as the superordinate competition to which other competition elements or child competitions are added.

Open the New Competition menu
Select a competition system "Combination".
Once you have completed all the mandatory fields, hit the Save button.
Add Competition Elements

Once you have completed all the mandatory fields, hit the 💾 Save button.

Add Parent Competition to Element
Although this should not be a regular course of action, in the case where a specific competition was created and started before its parent competition was established, you can still add the Parent Competition to the already created Competition Element from the Competition Element screen.
Please ensure that you have already created a Competition that will be selected as the “Parent” before proceeding.
To add Parent Competition to the Competition Element:

Hit the✏️ Edit button
In edit mode, the Parent competition field is enabled

Please take into account that to add a Parent competition to the Competition element:
A competition system with the Combination selected needs to be created
The competition type in Parent and Child competition needs to be the same
The number of teams in Child Competition needs to be less than or equal to the number of teams in Parent Competition
All competitions in this process need to be in status ACTIVE
