Introducing the ranking system for tournament

Toornament is proud to release and introduce its new ranking system for tournament! You can now generate your own rankings taking into account the results of several tournaments of a competition circuit.

Ranking participants based on their tournament results remains the basis and goal of any competition.  Most often, ranking is the conclusion of a single tournament results. But, it becomes more and more needed to rank participants across competition circuits made of several tournaments, and not just one. To do it, organizers often end up generating their competition ranking manually with external tools (i.e Excel table, scripts, API).

Fortunately, you can now create rankings, associate them with your competition circuit and automate their calculation thanks to Toornament.
The ranking system for tournament can be setup with the following parameters:

  • Define the type of participant, players or teams
  • Create multiple rankings for the same circuit
  • Apply your ranking to a specific season and/or region
  • Define different ranking points scales to the competition circuit tiers

As an example, we have reproduced a portion of the ATP tennis World Tour 2022 season, with its point system and tournament categories. The example reproduces 4 tournaments from 3 different categories (1 Grand Slam, 2 Master 1000 and 1 Master 500).
