Configuring Seasons

Overview Ensure that you have read Season Overview prior to modifying a Season. A default Season is created for you by Dribl during the initial onboarding. You can modify and configure the season settings to meet your specific requirements. Seasons are managed by competition administrators who hold the role of Body Administrator in Dribl.

To modify a Season, complete the following steps:
 

1. Log in to Dribl.
    
2. Select Seasons from the Actions menu or the main navigation menu.
    
3. Click(Edit) for the Season you want to modify. The Edit Season form is displayed.
    
4. Modify the relevant parameters.
   You cannot modify the settings of an archived Season.
   Always exercise caution when modifying the start and end dates of a Season once competitions have commenced.
