You tell me I can start a tournament with access to the FIDE players database, which is great. The question is: when the tournament has amateur players who are not in the FIDE database, can I enter them manually?
How do you start a Swiss tournament with amateur players who are not part of any league?
Hello Raul
Sure you can add them manually. After creating the tournament structure (type, duration, number of games, etc.) you will find yourself in an interface like this:

From there you can manually add players who are not in the FIDE database – alternatively, add the players from your club: https://my.chesspairings.org/giocatori_circolo.php and during tournament creation at step 5:
select "Internal Tournament (Club ELO)" so that those players will appear. Let me know if you need anything else
