2 months ago Hello @prosfygas33, There is nothing specific to Grappling in terms of event configuration.
The difference between Olympic Wrestling and Grappling rules is managed via the weight categories you add to your event. So Arena will know what type of bracket to render for Grappling style and what rules to follow if those are different from Olympic styles.
You just have to add the necessary weight categories to the event either via the UI by start typing "gp" or "gi" to the weight category search widget;
or via the Athlete Import spreadsheet (you must use the appropriate weight category identifier [
gp_m, gp_w, gp_gi_m, gp_gi_w] under the Discipline column. These can be found under the Settings->Sports Config -> Sports section as identifier).
Once your athletes are added and draw is done, you can generate matches as you normally do and can start the event.

Dear @csabavirag,
I am seeking guidance regarding the creation of a new grappling event, particularly in regard to its competitive format. As a newcomer to this domain, I am keen to discern whether the competition format differs significantly from that of wrestling(Tournament type,ranking type or uww ranking type ). Your insights on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
