Event Leaderboards in Skillshark: A Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Access Leaderboards

Access leaderboards.

  • Click on ‘Leaderboards’ found on the left-hand navigation menu.

  • Click on the blue ‘Add Leaderboard’ button.


Step 2: Select Events

Select leaderboard events.

  • Name your event for identification purposes.

  • Select all the events you would like to display on your leaderboard. This can be one or multiple events.

  • Next, you can toggle on/off the 'Public Access' button. If left on, anyone with the link can view the leaderboard.

Step 3: Create Views

Report views.

  • Create at least one view or as many as your organization needs. For example, you might want to create different views for different age groups.

  • In this example, we are creating two views for top hitters: U11 and U13.

  • Select the weighted report that corresponds to the view.

    o  *Leaderboards are created from weighted reports. If you don't already have a weighted report created, it won't show in the drop-down menu.

  • In this case, we would set up a weighted report for 'Top Hitters' prior. *See below for example.

Weighted report top hitters.

Step 4: Customize Filters

Player lists.

  • Within each view, you have the option to add player filters (clicking the blue button).

  • These filters allow you to further customize your view based on the player list or team.

  • You can select one or multiple player lists or teams, based on which players you want to be shown in each view.

  • For the U11 hitters, we will select the player list '2011 Girls.' For the U13 hitters, we will select the player list '2013 girls.'

Step 5: Select Player Limit

  • You can also select a player limit to show only the top number of players.

  • For this example, we will show the top 20 players only for both the U11 and U13 views.

Step 6: View Leaderboard

View leaderboard.

  • Access your newly created leaderboard by selecting the ‘View’ button.

  • Enable ‘Auto Cycle’ (toggle on at the top left of the screen) if you want the leaderboard to continuously cycle through rankings for each of your views.

  • The leaderboard will update in real time as more scores are entered at your event.

Step 7: View Additional Settings

Additional settings.

  • Click on the settings button (top left of the screen) for more customization options.

  • You can customize the # of players per page, cycle speed, and page zoom level. You also have the ability to enter full-screen mode.

  • Lastly, there is an option to show or hide the QR code on the leaderboard. If enabled, anyone who scans it can view the leaderboard on their device.
