Keeping Track of Match Times

[seg9585]

Last weekend in SD, after fidgeting around the whole time with the matchup printout and trying to keep track of our next match time + allies/opponents, I decided for LA next week to build a Match Countdown tool (in Excel) to keep track and give us a real-time countdown in the pit to be displayed on a screen.

I was wondering how other teams keep track of match times throughout the day, besides just highlighting team number on the printout?


Here's a screenshot of the tool, with some dummy data. Hopefully this will help our pit with time management a little bit.

The match times listed on the schedule change most of the time due to (most of the time) the regional being late so i wouldn't count on match times though personally us we just highlight and listen to the loud speaker for what match they will be queing
