Managing a tournament: format, name, copy, logo and trash
A tournament rarely comes out right first time: the number of players, the format and the name change. HoneyCup lets you fix all of that without losing what is done, and protects against accidental deletion.

Format and rules
All tournament settings live in the “Format and rules” panel: format, placement, sport, singles or doubles, match format and score entry mode. The bottom of the panel shows how many matches you will get. Until a match is played, you can change the format, and existing participants and seeding are kept.
Name and link
Rename a tournament with the pencil next to its name. The tournament address is built from the name, so it changes too, but old links keep working: HoneyCup redirects from the old address to the new one. A link you have already sent to players will not break.
Copying a tournament
The “Copy” button creates a new tournament with the same settings and roster but no results. Handy for a weekly league or the next stage. Repeated copies are numbered instead of piling up suffixes.
Logo
To the left of the name is a slot for a club or tournament logo. Tap it and pick an image: it is resized automatically and shows in the tournament header and cards.
A 30-day trash
A deleted tournament does not vanish at once: it stays for 30 days under “Deleted tournaments” inside “My tournaments”, with participants and results. One “Restore” button brings it back at the same address.
