Mass Import Spreadsheet
🧾 How to Mass Import Players or Teams Using a Spreadsheet in Scoreholio
Want to save time instead of entering every team or player manually? Use Scoreholio’s Import Spreadsheet feature to quickly load in all your participants.
📥 Step-by-Step: How to Import a Spreadsheet
Go to Admin > Players/Teams Tab
Open your tournament’s Admin page and click on the Players/Teams tab.
Click "More Options" > "Import CSV"
In the upper-right corner, click the green More Options button, then select Import.
Download the Sample File
Choose the sample spreadsheet that fits your tournament type:
Teams (for Doubles, Quads, etc.)
Players (for Singles or Switcholio)
Fill Out the Spreadsheet
✅ You may leave rows blank under the headers if you’re not using all the fields.
⚠️ Do NOT change, rename, delete, or reorder the column headers in the sample file — doing so will break the import!
Save as a CSV
When you’re done, save the file in .CSV (Comma Separated Values) format.
Upload Your File
Back in the Scoreholio import screen:
Click Choose File
Select your CSV file
Click Import
Click Submit
IMPORTANT: DO NOT Edit the Upload Screen!
After uploading, you'll see a preview screen showing your records.
🚫 Do NOT make any changes to the data shown on this screen.
✅ Just click the Import Records button in the bottom-right, then click Submit. You’re done!
💡 Pro Tips
Pool Play Assignments:
If you're assigning teams to pools in the spreadsheet, use the Pool column.
Pools are case-sensitive — for example, “Pool A” is not the same as “pool a.”
Pre-Registration Support:
You can import teams straight to pre-registration, allowing for check-in process at the tournament.
🛠️ Troubleshooting
Make sure your file is saved as a .CSV
Do not modify the column headers in any way
Double-check for typos or inconsistencies in Pool names (case sensitivity matters!)
Leave unnecessary fields blank — no need to delete them
Remove any accidental blank rows at the end of the sheet
