Tournament Director Files & Support
Notes to TDs...
If there are any files or forms that you would find useful, please let the ICCA know, and we'll do what we can to get them posted here.
Coach/TD Erik Czerwin is available as support for any TD at any point. Please feel free to call if you need help in the middle of a tournament, setting up a file, or anything else. We're here to support your events and help them run smoothly.
WinTD 5.0 is the pairing software used by the ICCA. All of our files are in that format, and we request that TDs use the same. We will be unable to process files from other software. We can still post results in other formats, please let us know if you have any questions.
To download, just click the file title.
