The Rugby Challenges You Face
Injury & Safety Tracking
Rugby is a high-contact sport and tracking head injury assessments, return-to-play protocols, and insurance compliance on paper is dangerously unreliable.
Complex Scoring Rules
Tries, conversions, penalty kicks, and drop goals each have different point values, and manual scorekeeping leads to frequent errors.
Pitch Sharing With Other Sports
Rugby pitches are often shared with football or soccer programs, and uncoordinated scheduling leads to torn-up fields and double-bookings.
Match Official Shortages
Qualified rugby referees are scarce, and without a centralized assignment system, the same officials get overbooked while others sit idle.
Built for Rugby
Everything You Need to Run Rugby Leagues
Pitch & Venue Scheduling
Schedule matches on grass or artificial pitches with awareness of field dimensions, lighting, and surface condition. leaguearc reserves buffer time between matches for pitch inspections and manages shared-venue arrangements with other sports seamlessly.
Try, Conversion & Penalty Scoring
Enter tries, conversions, penalty kicks, and drop goals with the system automatically calculating match scores using configurable point values. Whether you score tries at 5 points for union or 4 points for league, leaguearc gets the math right every time.
Yellow & Red Card Tracking
Record yellow cards with sin-bin timing and red cards with automatic match bans. leaguearc tallies disciplinary points per player across the season and enforces multi-match suspensions when citing thresholds are reached, keeping discipline consistent.
Multi-Format Support: Union, League & Sevens
Run rugby union, rugby league, sevens, and touch rugby divisions within the same organization. Each format has its own scoring rules, half lengths, substitution limits, and squad sizes configured independently.
Player & Team Performance Stats
Track tries, tackles, meters gained, lineout wins, and scrums won at the individual and team level. Coaches use these stats to evaluate performance and prepare for upcoming opponents, while players see their contributions on their profile pages.
Tournament & Cup Competitions
Organize sevens tournaments, knockout cups, and group-stage-to-finals competitions with seeded brackets that update live. The system handles pool tiebreakers including point differential and tries scored to produce accurate advancement.
