How to Read and Use Your Tournament Dashboard (Webinar Preview)

Presented by Pickleball Play Solutions, this short guide previews an upcoming live webinar that will teach you how to quickly read and use your tournament dashboard so you can stay on top of registrations, payments, refunds, and player data with ease.

Why the Tourney Dashboard Matters

The next screen you see is called the tournament dashboard. This is where you will go to see quick numbers such as how many have registered, entered in events, on a wait list, or withdrawn. You can also see payments that have come in.

Your dashboard is the single place to monitor the health of your event. Instead of hunting through multiple pages, you’ll get a snapshot of everything important — and in our webinar we’ll show you how to turn those snapshots into action.

What the Dashboard Shows (and How to Use It)

  • Registrations: Track total sign-ups and entries by event so you know when divisions are filling up or need promotion.
  • Waitlists & Withdrawals: See who’s waiting and who dropped so you can move players into open spots quickly and keep brackets balanced.
  • Payments: Monitor incoming payments and outstanding balances. We’ll show you how to reconcile payments and spot discrepancies fast.
  • Refunds & Adjustments: Learn the simple steps to refund a registration or modify a player’s events without creating confusion.
  • Player Data & Demographics: View registration statistics (for example, player regions) so you can tailor marketing, scheduling, and facility needs.
  • Financial Alerts: Important operational notes (such as an unpaid tournament balance that could trigger auto-delete) are visible on the dashboard — we’ll teach you how to act on them immediately.

How the Dashboard Helps You Make Smarter Decisions

When you know what to look for, the dashboard becomes your planning engine:

  • Spot trends — which events are popular, which age groups need more promotion.
  • Make scheduling choices based on real-time entries instead of guesswork.
  • Control finances — confirm payments, identify outstanding balances, and prevent administrative surprises.
  • Respond quickly to player needs — manage refunds, transfers, and waitlist moves efficiently.
