Events Page Overview

In the 'Events' section of the Events App, you can easily review the upcoming schedule for all events, including both tournaments and showcases. This section allows you to quickly check key details such as registration numbers, event status (whether active or closed), event type, location, and date. Additionally, the 'View' column on the far right provides options to either edit the event page or view the public registration page, making it simple to share event details with others.

In the top left corner of the page, you can filter events based on various criteria, including website, state, type (tournament or showcase), external status, start date, internal status, and certification status. These filters enable you to quickly narrow down and focus on events of interest.

In addition to the existing filters (website, state, type, external status, start date, internal status, and certification status), you can now filter events by Event Ops Region. This is useful for regional staff to quickly narrow the events list to their area -it's recommended to bookmark your filtered view to reduce clutter.

The four available regions and their corresponding states are:

  • Great Lakes — IL, IN, KY, MI, MO, OH
  • West — AK, AR, AZ, CA, CO, HI, ID, LA, MT, NV, NM, OK, OR, TX, UT, WA, WY
  • East — AL, CT, DC, DE, FL, GA, MA, MD, MS, NC, NH, NJ, NY, PA, PR, RI, SC, TN, VA, WV
  • Upper Midwest — IA, KS, MN, NE, ND, SD, WI

A search function on the far right also allows you to locate a specific event easily if needed.
