- Level: Your State
- Sub-Level: Your Association Fill in these parameters and click OK to proceed to the Awards page.
To initiate the addition of an award, click on the plus icon under the Awards heading on the top left side of the screen.
When adding the award, select the pre-configured Award Type. Then, enter:
-
- The name of your award
- The Grade to which the award applies (Alternatively, leave the default setting to apply to all Grades)

- Highlight the award by clicking on it, then click on the Award vote configurations icon (gear icon).

- Ensure that the Umpire Type is set to UMP.
- Enter the number of the umpire submitting the votes (1 for Umpire 1, 2 for Umpire 2).
- Specify the number of votes required (e.g., for a 3,2,1 system, enter 3 under Number of Votes).
- Select the game type to which this vote applies (e.g., one day matches, T20 matches).
- Check the Manual Line Available box to allow for manual addition of umpire votes. Note: If both umpires need to submit votes for a match, repeat this step for Umpire 2.
- Once all information is entered, click the Save button on the bottom right side of the screen.
