 * Hey,
 * I plan on creating an esport league and SportPress looks just perfect for it,
   especially with its esport presets. But… I have a feeling that a standard league
   isn’t a perfect fit for my needs. I was planning on playing it in swiss system.
   4-5 rounds and move to a bracket.
 * I cant find any info on this system being supported by SportPress so my question
   is – are there any plans for. If not would be it hard to make a custom implementation
   of such a system for any coder?

 * Hi!
 * Thanks for reaching out!
 * Do you mean something like the world cup (soccer)? If yes then this is possible
   with SportsPress pro 🙂
 * Thanks!
 * Kind Regards,

 * Not really. World Cup is Groups to bracket. Swiss is when winner plays winners
   and losers plays losers. So if you have 8 teams that play each other you are 
   left with 4 winners and 4 losers. Then winners play with winners and losers with
   losers to get those who won 2, lost 2 and won one and lost one. Then those play
   each other and so on. Check it here:

 * It was used in ELEAGUE Major as you can see here: [http://www.eleague.com/major-qualifier/swiss-format/#0y4K2_FLNOqC](http://www.eleague.com/major-qualifier/swiss-format/#0y4K2_FLNOqC)

 * Hi!
 * Thanks for the clarification!
 * We don’t have an automated way of creating this matchup, but you can manually
   assign the teams for the matches in this system.
 * Thanks!
 * Kind Regards,
