Add a team after registration closes

Use the club admin deadline override to add a missed pair to a draft or active competition.

Reviewed 4 November 2026
STEP 01

Open the late registration tool

  1. Sign in as a club owner, admin or organiser. Open the relevant club’s Admin Dashboard, then Registrations.
  2. Choose Add a team after registration closes. Pick the correct league and division. The tool accepts the current draft or active competition; it is not for completed competitions.
  3. Check that you are entering a full two-player pairing. For a player joining an existing pairing as a replacement, use Teams & players → Add from Standby instead.
STEP 02

Add a pairing already registered at your club

  1. Choose Existing team and select a pairing from another league at the same club. The existing team must have a registered captain and a partner email.
  2. Enter a reason for the exception, such as a confirmed late request, and choose Confirm late registration.
  3. Rallora creates a separate entry for the chosen competition. The original team and its previous competition results are preserved.
STEP 03

Create a new pairing after the deadline

  1. The captain must have a Rallora account already. If necessary, ask them to use rallora.app/signup first, then verify their account email and sign in.
  2. Choose Create new team. Enter the captain name and Rallora account email, plus the partner’s name and email. The team name is optional and defaults to the player names. Supply both ratings when requested. Use different email addresses for the two players.
  3. Enter the reason for the deadline override and press Confirm late registration. Share the resulting partner invitation link with the partner; they must claim their place using the invited email.
STEP 04

If fixtures have already been generated

  1. Read the confirmation carefully. If fixtures already exist, Rallora warns that the division schedule needs review.
  2. The late-entry tool does not regenerate fixtures, create the new team’s missing matches, or delete existing results. Review Fixtures & playing rounds and organise the outstanding games through the club’s normal fixture workflow.
  3. Check both players’ team access and the revised fixture plan before notifying other captains. Keep already played results intact.
STEP 05

If the team cannot be added

  1. Check you selected the right club, league and division, and that the league is draft or active.
  2. For a new team, confirm the captain has a Rallora account. For an existing team, check the source captain membership and partner email. Duplicate pairings or players already in the target competition may be rejected.
  3. If the team consists of one replacement player rather than a new pair, use the replacement workflow instead. If an error persists, send support the club, league and error message without passwords.
