Players (0 registered)
Add someone who hasn't signed up. They'll
be included in the group draw just like a registered player.
Step 1 ยท Assign Players to Groups
Randomly splits registered players into 8
groups as evenly as possible (e.g. 24โ8ร3, 26โ2ร4+6ร3). Run once only.
Step 2 ยท Assign Teams to Groups (per stage)
Fresh random draw at the start of each
stage. The QF draw is the last one โ each group gets 1 team that then carries through SF, 3rd place
and the Final.
Step 3 ยท Sync Scores
Pulls latest match results from a live
data API and recalculates all group points.
Pulls World Cup scores via your secure
server proxy (football-data.org). No key needed here โ it's stored on the server.
