What it does
Running a soccer site usually means keeping track of far more than articles. Fixtures, lineups, goals, cards, substitutions and player moves all pile up, and a standard WordPress setup has no natural place for them. This plugin adds 40 back-end menus for entering and organizing that information, and it stores everything in 35 custom database tables. Players, staff, referees, teams, matches, competitions, transfers and contracts each get their own space, so your data stays structured and easy to find.
Once the data is in, you display it with 33 Gutenberg blocks designed for soccer content, such as fixtures, player statistics, team formations and match events. The plugin generates event icons and calculates statistics from the match records you enter, and more than 140 options let you adjust how it behaves and looks. It suits soccer news blogs, transfer market sites, club pages and competition organizers who want their data presented in a consistent, responsive layout.
