Visual Groupings (Teams, Players, Leagues)

Post by tbmartin » Tue Nov 15, 2011 8:33 pm

Hello iScore team,

I'm looking for a way to organize the views of Teams, Players, Leagues, etc. Right now they are just lists/tables - in alphabetical order. For instance, I'd like to be able to group players by age (10U, 12U etc) so, when I create a new team and wish to add players I can find the 8U "Allie" vs. the 12U "Allie" (we often don't even get their last initial). I know I can sort them with the Leagues feature, but just being able to group them visually in the list would be useful.

I've tried using the "outline" numbering system for "Leagues/Seasons/Tournaments/etc), but that became cumbersome to use - and doesn't work for players. Being able to place them in a visual group in the list (i.e. have a header line and then the list) would be useful.

Thanks for considering the idea.

Leagues is the way to do this. Create a group called "10U" and a group called "8U", then make sure only one league is active in League Manager and you will see only players / teams games that are part of that league.

If I understand table views in IOS, I think creating visual groupings should be pretty straight forward. Not sure if you can drag Table View Cells from one group to another (that would be cool), but you already group the Player List by alphabet - another example of grouping is in Apple's "Contacts" again this is by alphabet (maybe that support is built-in)...and creating custom groups is more cumbersome...

Anyway, my main complaint with the Leagues is that it hides information. (ala - when I searched to see if anyone had asked for this feature) - I found the iScore folks mentioning several times they get lots of "emergency" service calls ... "all my data is gone!" ...mostly due to new folks not understanding how Leagues work.

Being able to visually group the data (leagues/teams/games/players) in some meaningful fashion is just a way to help organize...what's becoming a large amount of data.

Thanks,
