What is Join Screening and how does it work

Often competition organizers require additional information in order to run an event or need a way to communicate an important topic to the players. It can be very cumbersome for organizers to ask about everything necessary in a very clear form and in one place. For participants, well, they have to go through any of the extra requirements off the platform, complete and then come back. Join screening is built in order to solve that.

Join screening allows organizers to pre-screen participants in their tournaments based on a pre-defined set of steps.

Note: This feature is supported on all platforms: web, iOS, Android as well as on desktop client.

Participants must complete mandatory steps before they can participate in a competition, otherwise, they will be removed from the tournament once signups are closed. The example below showcases two steps, one optional and one mandatory.

Once you open the first optional step it should look like this:

Once both steps are done

If you've completed screening, you would no longer see a message about step completion and you also should see a tick confirming that screening is done for you in the roster area.

Important: Every participant must complete all mandatory screening steps. If you're organizing a team in order to play in a tournament, all of the team members have to complete the join screening (including substitutes and coaches).

In modal with the join screening steps, all steps are mandatory unless they are marked as optional.
