LOG-IN

In order to begin the process of setting up your tournament's website we first need to get to your tournament's URL. Once there we'll work on the layout of the information you want to share about your tournament.

When you sign up to host a tournament on the website, you'll be given an address (called a URL) that will be used to point users to your tournament registration. A typical URL will be something like

http://www.joyoftournaments.com/tourneys/sample05/
or
http://www.joyoftournaments.com/tx/mckinney/.

When you're publicizing your tournament, you may point users directly to your registration website by using your URL. If you prefer, you can just point them to http://www.joyoftournaments.com and then have them find the link to your tournament off of the home page of the website.

First of all, type your tournament's URL in the address space on your web browser, and hit enter on your keyboard. This will take you to the log-in page.

In the first box type your e-mail address, and in the second box type your password. When you click on login you'll be taken to the Main page of your tournament's website. In the upper right corner you should see the word Administration.

Please Note:
You're looking at the page other coaches will eventually see when they come here to register for your tournament. However, seeing the word Administration in red on the Main page of your website means that other coaches won't see it when they're using the website to register for the tournament. Just remember that a red word takes you places that only you, the Administrator, can go.

Click on Administration. You should now see a page that looks like this:

Now you can set up your website. The first step here is to set up the Website Layout.
