Categories provide you with a powerful resource to segregate the registration list on the STRONGVON Tournament Management System. Instead of having one giant pool of registrations, you can use categories to separate the registrations by gender, age, weight, experience, and any other criteria.
You can configure a category to have one or more fields of selection. The more fields of selection you offer on a category, the better the precision with which the registrants can specify on their registration. You can also configure one or more categories on an event. The more categories you create, the more choices you offer to the registrants.
The brackets of an event can be set up in a single category, or they can be divided among multiple categories. The advantage of having multiple categories is that each category carries its own price schedule, and a registration can be assigned multiple categories. This allows variation in pricing and enables a registrant to belong to multiple brackets. Figure 1 shows you an overview of how categories are used on the system.
