Tournament documentation

The Tournament Manager should ensure that the tournament schedule is fair to each team, and allows reasonable recovery and warmup periods between matches, taking into consideration the time it takes to get from  one location to another at the playing venue. For example, for elite Sevens Rugby tournaments the rest period between matches is at least 120 minutes, and teams should play a maximum of four matches per day, and fewer than four unless necessary. 

Below are some examples of the different types of documentation you may need. 

• Tournament Operations Run Sheet (where applicable)
• Tournament Run Sheet
• Team Venue Familiarisation Schedule
• Agenda for Team Managers’ meeting
• Blank copies of Match Score Sheet
• Script for PA Announcer (if applicable)
• Match statistics from previous rounds
• Pool standings (where applicable)
• Pre-match meeting agendas
• Crisis meeting agenda template (just in case!)
