# Team Tournament Creation

# Team Tournament Creation

If you're hosting a team sport or esport tournament, Challonge can facilitate that using rosters.


| First, check the box labeled "Require participants to register as a team" under your tournament "Settings" tab and hit Save. 
_Note: If you want your tournament to be publicly discovered by potential participants, you'll also want to host a sign up page and make it publicly visible. If you plan to send direct invitations to register and participate, you would still host a sign up page but not make it publicly visible._

| Challonge will let you set a "Min" & "Max" team size. The __minimum is the number of players__ a team is __required to have in order to participate__ in your tournament. 
* _If you would like teams to have additional players registered like substitutes or coaches, you would add a number to 'max' greater than the min you already entered._ 
* _By default, if a team **does not have the minimum** number of players on their roster when the tournament is started, the team will be **automatically disqualified** by our system. If you don't want it to do that, you can select the option "Allow teams with incomplete rosters to participate"._
