CSV Import Guide

Learn how to format your files for importing teams and game schedules.

1 Importing Teams

You can bulk-upload your team roster using a CSV file. This is especially useful if you are migrating from another system like curl.io.

Required Columns

  • Name: The name of the team.
  • Contact name: Full name of the primary contact.
  • Email: Contact email address.
  • Phone: Contact phone number.

Example CSV

Name,Contact name,Email,Phone
Team Forrest,John Forrest,john@example.com,555-0101
Team Smith,Jane Smith,jane@example.com,555-0102

2 Importing Game Schedules

To import a schedule, navigate to the Manage Draws tab and select Schedule for your chosen draw. The system will match games based on the team names already in your season.

Required Columns

  • Draw: Must exactly match the name of the Draw in the system (e.g., "Draw 1").
  • Team1: The name of the first team.
  • Team2: The name of the second team.
  • Date: The date in YYYY-MM-DD format.
  • Time: The time (e.g., "06:50 PM").
  • Sheet: The sheet name or number.

Example CSV

Draw,Team1,Team2,Date,Time,Sheet
Draw 1,Team Forrest,Team Greenlaw,2026-10-12,06:50 PM,1
Draw 1,Team Smith,Team Roald,2026-10-12,06:50 PM,2

Pro Tip: If you export your CSV from Excel, Hack Times will automatically handle the hidden formatting characters (BOM) to ensure a smooth import.
