Division Groups (also called Clusters) let you organize your divisions into logical collections. They are the top-level organizational structure for your league.

What Are Division Groups?

A Division Group is a container that holds related divisions together. Think of them as folders for your divisions.

Common examples:

• In-House Leagues vs Tournament Divisions
• Recreational vs Competitive
• Different sports or game types
• Different venues or locations

Default Division Group

When you first set up XSYTE, a default Division Group called "In-House Leagues" is created automatically. All new divisions are placed here unless you specify otherwise.

Creating a Division Group

1. Navigate to Admin > Division Groups
2. Click Add Division Group
3. Fill in:
   • Long Name: Full display name (up to 75 characters)
   • Short Name: Abbreviation (up to 12 characters, used in compact views)
   • Description: Optional description
   • Logo: Optional branding image
   • Display Order: Controls the sort order on your site
4. Click Save

Assigning Divisions to Groups

Each division belongs to exactly one Division Group. When creating or editing a division, select the appropriate group from the dropdown.

How They Appear on Your Site

Division Groups organize how visitors browse your leagues. They will see the top-level groups first, then can drill into the divisions and seasons within each group.

Best Practices

• Keep group names clear and intuitive for your members
• Use the short name for a clean abbreviation
• Set display order to put your most popular groups first
• Add logos for a professional, branded look
