Add a Game in LeagueMinder

Games in LeagueMinder are unique because each Game is assigned a shared Game ID across all participants. This means when you create a Game, your Opponent will also see the same Game Event within their system once it has been submitted or accepted based on your league or scheduling rules.

While there are multiple places within LeagueMinder where you can begin creating a Game, the New Game Form and creation process remain the same regardless of where you start.


Where You Can Add a Game

You can begin creating a new Game from any of the following areas:

Pick a Team Page (Dashboard)

  • Click the + Add Button in the top-right corner and select New Game.
