Team captain instructions

As a captain of a knockout team, you have the ability to submit results for the matches that you play directly into the system. You do this through My EBU, which is the updated version of the EBU's members area. For help on how to log into your account, see Accessing EBUKnockout.

List of teams

You will find EBUKnockout under the Utilities menu in My EBU. It will look a little like this:

This lists the name of the Knockout event, with your team's name in parentheses. The icon at the far left tells you if you are the captain of this team, or just a player. Only captains are able to amend team details, and submit results. The window/globe icon links you directly to the public results pages for this knockout.

Knockout page

Clicking on the link for a knockout takes you to the following information page:

This has several sections. At the top we see the team name and another link to the public results page. The checkboxes below say whether the team was seeded, or if they were unseeded but later became seeded after defeating a seed.

Below this is the team roster, which lists all of the players on the team, along with whether they are a captain and how many matches they have played.

Further down is a list of all the matches the team has played, or is scheduled to play.

Finally, there are two sections which allow you to give some information to your opposition captains:

Contact Information tells them how they can get in touch with you. In most knockout competitions, captains are expected to arrange their matches privately, so this is where you will add your email or telephone information if the event organiser hasn't done this for you. Only the captains of your opposition teams can see this information.

Venue Information tells your opposition how they can get to your home venue. You can add your address here, a Google Maps link, or anything you like. Again, only the captains of your opposition teams can see this information.
