Tabroom has a number of "Circuits" for different leagues or geographical locations. Each of these circuits has one or more administrators, who are responsible for approving tournaments on the circuit calendar, communicating with member schools, and possibly using advanced features such as bid tracking or membership dues.

This section of the manual is designed for circuit administrators - it's not relevant for most users. If you want to learn how to join a circuit, see the section on School Administration instead.

If your account is listed as a circuit administrator, then you will see a list of circuits on the sidebar of your account dashboard:

Creating A Circuit

You can't, they're created by Tabroom and then an administrator is designated to run them. If you would like a new circuit created on Tabroom for your local league or region, email [[mailto: help@tabroom.com]].

Approving Tournaments

If there are any active tournament approval requests, a notice will appear on the sidebar under the relevant circuit: user chapter home-approve.png

Click the link for "Approve Tourn Requests" and you will be shown a list of pending requests:

For each request, you can "Approve" it, which will add the tournament to your circuit calendar, "Delete" it, which will remove the tournament from your circuit (but not delete it entirely), or click "Admin," which will take you into the tournament settings as if you were the tournament director.

Edit a Circuit

To access the main circuit administration functions, click the name of the circuit on the sidebar. This will give you a new set of options for your circuit on the sidebar:

Tabroom makes it easy to send an email to everyone in your circuit, or subsets of people like particular tournament entrants.
