In this release we have released the following enhancements to PlayHQ. These features are not yet enabled in Production but available for testing for Sports administrators in your nominated testing environment.
Period scores
Period scores are the scores (ie. goals, behinds or points) that teams have scored in a period (ie. quarter or half). Period scores provide additional match information for participants and followers to identify which team was leading during a game.
The Period Scores grade setting allows an administrator to:
-
Configure whether period scores are displayed on both the admin portal and the public website.
-
Set whether to display period scores as:
-
By period-total points scored per period, or
-
End of period-progressive game scores at the end of each period.
-
-
Automatically populate period scores if games were scored using electronic scoring and if period scores were enabled.
-
Enter period scores captured from a game which will automatically populate the end of period scores in the admin portal.
-
Enable period scores to be entered during overtime.
Note:
-
Period scores are linked to period type and overtime settings therefore any changes to these settings will impact what is displayed for period scores. If the period type is changed during a season from quarters to halves (or vice versa) after games have already been finalised then these games period scores will display as blank scores.
-
If overtime has been turned off then overtime scores will not display on the period scores even if a game has been finalised that had an overtime score.
Further support material on this can be found here.
Home & Away competitions - Regrading
The whole Home & Away fixture and game allocation will now automatically update after regrading to the day/time of each game slot (configured by the competition admin) and home venue/playing surface of each team.
