Public vs Private Groups

Public Group

  • Anyone can view matches and standings
  • Player profiles are visible
  • Season data is accessible
  • Great for leagues and tournaments

Private Group

  • Only members can view content
  • Invite required to access
  • Data is not indexed by search engines
  • Best for private groups and clubs

Even in private groups, individual match links can still be shared publicly if the share feature is used.

Tips

Share After Every Match

Build engagement by sharing results consistently after every match. Your community will look forward to updates.

Use Share Cards

Share cards include a visual preview with scores and key stats. They look great on social media and messaging apps.

Pin Season Standings

Share the public season standings link and pin it in your group chat so everyone can check the table anytime.

Tag Players

When sharing on social media, tag the players mentioned in the share card to boost engagement.

Common Issues
