Season container — name, eligibility, captains, and season standings (e.g. Mighty Wonders · Spring)
Club Play
The hub at /club-playand one dated play event inside a mini-league (day or evening) — signup, live courts, game scores
Session (result)
Completed archive after you finish a Club Play — Rankings → Sessions
Members do not enroll in a mini-league for the whole season. They must be on the sport roster, then sign up for each Club Play (or get scored by a captain).
Intent — three layers
Mini-league = who the league is for, and ranking across many Club Plays.
Club Play = the live tool to run one dated event (pairings, courts, scores).
Sessions / Leaderboard = what everyone browses after the fact.
Club Play is the recommended way to run weekly or daytime league events. Manual captain entry is the backup if you did not use live play.
Admin → captain → members
Admin Creates the mini-league (templates OK), sets eligibility, assigns captain(s).
Admin Ensures players are on the sport roster and profile rules are set.
Captain Creates a Club Play for that mini-league (date, format, courts).
Members Sign up while status is registration.
Captain Starts live play, enters per-game scores, completes the Club Play.
Rankings → Admin → Mini-leagues — create the season (e.g. Mighty Wonders).
Assign captain(s) by roster search.
Roster + profile rules so members can sign up.
Later: archive, reactivate, or permanently delete a mini-league; assign/remove captains; club-wide scoring settings.
Admins can also run Club Play themselves (site nav, Rankings Captain tab, or Admin → Club Play).
What the captain does
Sees the Captain tab after assignment (admins see all active mini-leagues for the sport).
Creates a Club Play for the mini-league — share the hub or session link.
At the courts (phone or desktop): Start live play → you enter court scores → Complete — standings update. Members do not enter or confirm scores during live Club Play.
Backup: Captain tab → enter W/L/points manually → Save & update leaderboard (also no peer confirm).
Captains may create additional mini-leagues after they captain at least one, and may tune description/custom weights. They cannot assign other captains, change eligibility on an existing mini-league, archive/delete, or run disputes/CSV import.
What members do
Be on the sport roster with a complete profile.
Open Club Play → sign up for an open event.
Play; watch live scores on the same page (view only — the captain enters scores).
After complete: Mini-leagues, Sessions, and (if enabled) the club Leaderboard.
Casual play (not Club Play): When there was no live Club Play night, members may use Rankings → Submit results; other players then confirm via the Confirm tab, wallet QR, or 4-digit code. That peer-confirm path does not run during a live Club Play session. Events linked to a mini-league are another optional path (admin scores the roster).
