Rugby tournament and league management software

Rugby union scores are built from four actions. A try, grounding the ball in the opponents' in-goal area, is worth five points, and the conversion kick that follows is worth two. A penalty goal and a drop goal are each worth three. A penalty try awards seven points without a conversion, and the final score of every match records these elements as well as the total.

League tables in rugby rarely count wins alone. Many competitions award match points for a win or a draw and add bonus points, typically for scoring a set number of tries or for losing by a narrow margin, but the exact rules differ between unions, levels and seasons. On Zeetius, match points, bonus points and the order of tie-breakers are configured for each competition, so the table follows your regulations.

Results are published as soon as the referee and the match officials confirm the score, and the league table updates from the confirmed results. Live scoring for your rugby format, including how tries, conversions and penalties are recorded during a match, can be discussed with our team.

• Match points. Points for a win, a draw and a loss, set per competition rather than fixed by the software.
• Bonus points. Try-scoring and losing bonus points configured to match the thresholds your union uses.
• Tie-breakers. The order in which points difference, tries scored or head-to-head results separate teams level on points.

Fifteens and sevens schedules are planned differently. A fifteens league needs a season of weekly fixtures that respects home grounds, byes and representative weekends. Zeetius Tournaments generates the fixture list from the teams in each division and keeps it current when matches are postponed or moved, so clubs and supporters always see the latest dates.

A sevens tournament packs many short matches onto a few pitches in a day. Teams need rest between matches, pitches need to keep turning over, and finals have to finish on time. Schedules can be planned across several pitches at once, and Zet AI can build a pitch schedule that respects rest times and avoids clashes, then propose changes when matches overrun.

Referees and assistant referees are appointed from the same system. Zeetius Federation accredits match officials, records their grades and allocates them to fixtures, and Zet AI can suggest appointments by grade, availability and conflicts of interest, so a referee is not sent to a match involving their own club.

A rugby union works through regions, districts and clubs. Zeetius Federation registers players, clubs and officials once and keeps them current through renewals, transfers and seasons, with membership cards and a complete history for every player. Each tier can have its own access, so a club manages its own players while the union sees every registration and every sanctioned competition.

Season results become rankings and selection evidence. Zeetius Federation prepares rank lists from real results, generates certificates for every participant and publishes them on the union's own branded website. Zet AI can highlight players and teams climbing fastest across districts and age groups, and answer questions about participation in plain language.

Representative tournaments bring teams, officials and guests to one venue for several days. Zeetius Connect accredits them online, manages accommodation, meals and transport, and validates entry and coupons with QR codes. Ztream by Zeetius streams several pitches at once, with sponsor placements, interviews and highlights ready to share while the tournament is still running.

• Registrations and transfers. One record per player and club, kept current through renewals, transfers and seasons.
• Referee management. Accreditation, grading, nomination and allocation of referees and match officials.
• Online payments. Registration fees and entries paid through secure payment gateways, with reminders by email and SMS.
