🔄 Starting a New Season
Don't create a new league each season! Update your existing league instead.
Update for New Season:
Change league name (optional):
League Tools → General tab
Update League name (e.g., "Spring 2025" → "Summer 2025")
Tap Save
⚠️ Name changes require profanity check - allow 24-48 hours before your next event.
Update description:
League Tools → General tab
Update Description
Tap Save
Update standings dates:
League Tools → Standings tab
Change Start date and Last date
Tap Save
💡 Changing dates doesn't delete old standings - you can always view previous seasons.
Why Keep the Same League?
✅ Historical data stays together
✅ Players don't need to rejoin
✅ Admins stay connected
✅ Less setup work

Only create new league if:
Moving to completely different course permanently
Fundamentally different format
Running additional league alongside current one
