Entering Results and Updating Standings
How to record match scores and how standings are calculated in Pitch Planner.
Standings update automatically as soon as you enter a result. Here’s how it works.
Entering a score
- Open your tournament and go to the Fixtures tab
- Find the match you want to update
- Click the score area (or the pencil icon)
- Enter the score for each team
- Click Save
The match status changes to Completed and standings recalculate instantly.
How standings are calculated
For round-robin and group stage formats, standings use standard soccer scoring:
| Result | Points |
|---|---|
| Win | 3 |
| Draw | 1 |
| Loss | 0 |
Tiebreakers (applied in this order):
- Points
- Goal difference (goals scored minus goals conceded)
- Goals scored
- Head-to-head result between tied teams
Correcting a result
Made a mistake? Just click the score again and update it. Standings recalculate automatically.
Knockout results
In knockout formats, entering a score automatically advances the winner to the next round. If it’s a draw in a knockout match, you’ll need to enter a winner manually (for penalty shootout scenarios).
Viewing standings
Standings are visible under the Table tab. For group + knockout tournaments, each group has its own standings table.
Your public tournament page (shared with pitch-planner.app/t/your-id) always shows the latest standings.
