Lane Assignments

Assign bowlers to lanes quickly with auto-assignment, average-based grouping, and multi-game lane shifts. The visual lane grid makes it easy to see and adjust assignments.

Opening Lane Assignments

1

Navigate to Your Tournament

Open the tournament and find the Lane Assignments section.

Select Squad & Game

Use the squad selector to pick which squad you are assigning, and the game selector to view assignments for a specific game.

Auto-Assign

Visual Lane Grid

The lane grid displays all available lanes as columns with bowler names in each cell. This gives you a bird's-eye view of the entire lane assignment layout.

Each lane pair is shown together (e.g., lanes 1-2, 3-4) since bowlers typically alternate between paired lanes.

Manual Reorder

To manually adjust assignments, drag a bowler's name from one lane to another. The grid updates immediately. This is useful for last-minute changes or when specific bowlers need to be on particular lanes.

Multi-Game Lane Shifts

Use the game selector to view lane assignments for each game. When auto-assign is configured with a shift, you can preview where every bowler will be for each game before the tournament starts.

Tip

Print the lane assignments and post them at the front desk so bowlers can find their starting lanes when they arrive.
