The problem
Tournaments still run on whiteboards, chats, and spreadsheets.
Standings are computed by hand, brackets are taped to a wall, and registration fees are chased over WhatsApp. Fake IDs slip into age-restricted divisions, and there is no live page for players and families to follow.
Every organizer rebuilds the same chaos from scratch, weekend after weekend. NdamBa League replaces all of it with one control center, and a branded public page that keeps players, parents, and fans informed in real time.
How it works
Four things, the whole lifecycle.
1. Create from a template
Pick the format, round-robin, groups + knockout, pools to Cup and Plate, single or double elimination, Swiss, or a veterans regional-to-national circuit, or build your own. Set the name, dates, colors, age limits, and fees.
2. Register, verify, and draw
Teams register and pay online. Rosters carry photos and proof of ID with AI authenticity checks against fake IDs. Pools and brackets draw automatically across fields and time slots.
3. Run match day live
A console for scores, goals, yellow and red cards, and lineups. Standings (with your tie-breakers) and knockout brackets update themselves, and cards become fines and suspensions automatically.
4. Awards, finances, public page
Coaches and the committee vote MVP, Golden Boot, and Fair Play. Finances and sponsors are tracked end to end, AI cuts highlights from uploaded match video, and every event gets its own branded live portal.

Who it is for
Built for organizers and federations.
