Quicker way to add fixtures
The software needs a quicker way to add multiple fixtures at the same time rather than having to set them up individually. A simple table with multiple rows including date, home team, away team, competition would be perfect. Upon submitting the data, the single event pages auto generate.

Match Days
I am currently working on a football team website.
I've added a tournament (e.g. Barclays Premier League), then a season (e.g. 2014-2015).For a big tournament (20 teams, each team plays 38 games in one season) it is hard to manage events.
It would be good to set up Match Days: Match Day 1, 2, 3, ...
When adding an event, the Match Day would be another option.
When on a list of all events an additional filter Match Day would help to navigate.81 votesThanks again for all your votes and comments on this idea!

Head to Head sorting for Tables
The ability to sort tables using a Head to Head equation. I play in a Softball League and if two team finish with the same record, it is not the differential between runs that separates them, but the head to head.
So for example, if team 3 and 5 finish with the same record at the end of the season and both teams played each other at home and away, the head to head sorting would come into effect.
Team 3 for example, could have beaten Team 5 at home 11 - 3, but lost to Team 5 away 7…

Allow more customization of player profile pages
Allow us to customize our player profile pages more:
- Option to pick and choose which players details to show on the page
- Option to re-arrange and display the players details on the page differently (ie: some info below the photo, some on the right of the photo)
- Option to move the Players Bio up beside the photo, instead of underneath all the players stats.
- re-arrange the order of the stats performance tables (seasons, exhibition, playoff games stats, ie: placing season before playoffs)

Have a front end user interface so players and coaches can modify their own games/stats.
It would be nice if a sports press site could allow coaches and players to modify their stats and games to alleviate some of the work that the organizer has to do. If a player posts his/her stats, they get published, but are not "certified" until the coach or organizer checks them off as certified, accurate and true. You can place a tiny check mark next to each stat to consider them as certified. I would also allow each stat to have an optional hyperlink to link videos or newspaper articles or whatever proof the player can provide to show…

Last 5 matches / win / loss streak
Hello Sportspress,
It would be nice to have a streak bar which shows the win / draw / loss streak.for example small blocks colored green orange red.
[W] [L] [W] [D] [W]Also it would be nice to show head to results to matches which haven't been published yet.

Allow for bulk player assignment to teams/seasons etc
Currently the only way I know to assign existing players to new/different teams is manually 1 by 1 via the EDIT PLAYER screen. It would be glorious if there was a way to select multiple users at once and assign them to a different/additional team and season. (similar to how you can bulk assign multiple users certain forum role/site roll permissions at once)
30 votesThanks James for your detailed feedback, and everyone for your votes on this idea! We’ve just released SportsPress 2.2 with the ability to bulk add teams to multiple players at once. Similar to the built-in bulk post editor in WordPress, teams can only be added (not removed) from players during the bulk action, but we’ve also introduced teams to the quick edit menu which can be used for each player separately. We hope to implement a “remove teams” feature in the future as well :)

Implement an API
An API would allow us to easily interact with SportsPress from outside the plugin or GUI.
For example, if you have a list (csv,...) with team scores every week, you could use the API to automatically process the list and update the SportsPress database fields with the values. No need to add it manually in the GUI.
An API opens up a lot of other possibilities and allows developers to extend the SportsPress functionality.Thanks,

Add event result to team info
I am wondering if there is a way for the visitors of my site to see event results (past scores) for each team. On the back end, I am able to search for a team and view their history of events (Games), and I would like to have that on the front end as well. Is there an easy way to do this?
On my standings, the site visitors can click on each team and see the team info. That teams past scores (events) should be visible. I am not familiar with any code or programming what so ever, and…

More flexibility on Teams page
There's a lot of different content that can be added to a teams page and the current system is rigid if I have a lot of teams and want the same layout/content for all team pages. Rather than build each team page with short codes, it would be beneficial to have a single team template that can be used across all team pages.
