Lineups and formations · Official matches · Documentación de Bsporty Cloud

On a sport with a pitch, such as football, futsal, basketball or padel, every place in the match is a spot on a drawn pitch. There is no bench of extra places. Players beyond the places wait on the waiting list, which the lineup screen shows as the Bench.

On a sport without a pitch, players just take places and there is no lineup to arrange.

How spots work#

The two sides are Home and Away, each with half the places.
Players can pick their own spot when they join and move to another free spot until kick off.
A player who does not pick is placed on the emptier side. The goalkeeper spot is filled last.
On football, futsal, handball and hockey, the first spot of each side is the goalkeeper. If you set a goalkeeper price, that spot costs that price.
A spot can be held for a friend a player invited. It stays free until they answer.

Set the formation#

In the match editor, the Formation card shows the pitch. Tap the pitch to move spots, or pick a formation. You can redraw it freely on a draft and on a published match nobody stands on yet. Once players are on the pitch, the editor shows The formation can no longer be changed.

What each move does#

Move	Effect
A player to another spot	They keep their place and what they pay. Moving someone into goal does not change their price.
A bench player onto the pitch	They get a place and keep what they paid for the waiting list, so there is nothing more to pay. They are told You have a place.
A player from the pitch to the bench	Must be a swap with a bench player coming on. They go first in the waiting list and keep what they paid. Nothing is refunded. They are told Moved to the waiting list.

You cannot move a player onto a spot held for an invitation, or put two players on one spot.
