How to Correct or Delete a Match Result

Fixing Match Results in Score7​

Entered the wrong score? Forgot to update a result? No problem. Score7 lets you easily correct or delete match results at any time—whether you're in a group stage or knockout bracket.

This article shows you how to make updates quickly and accurately.

Option 1: Correct the Match Result​

  1. Go to the Matches section in your tournament
  2. Find the match with the incorrect result
  3. Click Update Result
  4. Adjust the score or set-based details
  5. Save the changes

This will:

  • Recalculate standings or bracket progression
  • Keep any associated player stats (unless changed manually)

Option 2: Delete the Result Completely​

If the match shouldn't have been played or needs to be re-entered from scratch:

  1. Open the Matches section
  2. Click Delete Result next to the match
  3. Confirm the deletion

This will:

  • Remove the result from the match
  • Reset the status to "not played"
  • Erase related stats and outcomes

Note: Deleting a result also clears player stats entered for that match.

When Should You Delete Instead of Edit?​

  • The match was scored incorrectly and played in the wrong round or format
  • You need to fully reset a pairing or schedule
  • The teams involved were incorrect due to bracket edits

If only the score was wrong, editing is faster and keeps existing structure intact.

What About Player Stats?​

If you've entered stats:

  • Editing the result keeps stats unless you manually change them
  • Deleting the result removes associated stats

You can always re-enter them after correcting the match.
