Fixtures and results

Fixtures and results are named lists of matches or one-off competitions: each fixture has two sides (or one, for a competition with no opponent), a kick-off time, a venue, a competition name, a status and, once it has finished, a score. Use this page for boards that show what is on, live or coming up: a fixture list, a results board, or a pub's what's-on-TV screen.

What it's great for

Fixtures and results suits anywhere with matches, rounds or competitions to show: a sports club or stadium's fixture and results board, a golf or racquet club's members' fixtures, a pub or bar's what's-on-TV listing, or a school's sports fixtures and house points.

No board in the catalog reads this content type yet, so a fixture list you build today is ready content waiting for that board.

How to create a list

Select New fixtures and results.
Give the list a Name (this is for your own reference, it is not shown on the board).
Select Add fixture for each match or competition entry.
Fill in each fixture's fields, then select Create.

Fixture fields

Each fixture has the following fields:

Home team: required. For a one-off competition with no opponent (a golf medal round, a school sports day), this carries the competition entry's own name.
Away team: optional. Leave it blank for a one-sided entry — no fake opponent is needed.
Home, away or neutral: which side (if either) is playing at home.
Competition: what the fixture is for, e.g. "Junior Regional League" or "Members' Medal". Boards can group fixtures by this field.
Kick-off: the date and time. This is what boards sort by.
Venue: where it is being played or shown.
Status: Scheduled, Live, Postponed, Cancelled or Finished. A postponed or cancelled fixture stays on the list rather than vanishing, so it can be rescheduled later by editing its kick-off time and status.
Score: enter this once the status is Live or Finished. A one-sided entry only has a home score — the away score stays blank.

Ordering and the kick-off preview

Fixtures always show on the board in kick-off order, earliest first, regardless of the order you add them in the editor. After you save, a read-only preview shows the exact order the board will use.

Where fixtures appear

Once a list is saved, it is available to link to a board whose screen design accepts fixtures, the same way you link a timetable or a menu.
