AnWP Sports Leagues – Basketball, Ice Hockey, Handball, Rugby & More

Note: Full Site Editing (FSE) themes have limited support. Classic themes and block themes work best.
Can I use this for multiple sports on the same site?
No. Sports Leagues is designed for one sport per installation. Each sport has unique positions, statistics, and rules that require dedicated configuration.

For multiple sports, consider:
* Using WordPress Multisite (separate site per sport)
* Installing multiple separate WordPress installations
Do I need coding knowledge to use this plugin?
No! Sports Leagues includes an intuitive admin interface with visual editors. Basic WordPress knowledge is sufficient.

For advanced customization (custom templates, hooks), PHP/HTML/CSS knowledge helps but isn't required for standard use.
How do I import existing data?
Use the built-in Import Data Tool:

Navigate to Sports Leagues → Import Data Tool in WordPress admin
Prepare your data in any spreadsheet application (Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice, etc.)

Include all relevant information in separate columns

In the Import Data Tool, create columns matching your spreadsheet structure
Copy data from your spreadsheet and paste into the Import Tool
Review data and click Import to complete

Tip: Start with a small test import (5-10 rows) before importing large datasets.
