American Football Lineups Widget

The Lineups widget lists the starting players and substitutes for both sides in a single American Football match.

The fastest way to add a American Football widget: hover any block and click the American Football icon directly — no need to open the full block picker and search a category list.

Preconditions

Your project must have the American Football feature enabled. Widget categories are switched on per project, so if American Football widgets does not appear in the block picker, ask your administrator to enable it.
You need permission to create or edit articles.
Lineups are published shortly before a match, so an early fixture may have none yet.

To set up the widget:

Open an article for editing, or create a new one.
Hover over a block in the article body. A row of icons appears, one for each sport enabled on your project — the American Football icon is highlighted here.
Select the American Football icon, then choose Lineups from the widget list that opens.
Set the widget options. Team, Display widget header, Refresh time control what it shows.
Check the options are the ones you want. Some fields depend on others, so a list can be empty until you set the field above it.
Setting a team reveals a list of that team’s matches, grouped under Upcoming games, Past games and Interrupted games tabs. Select the specific match you want — the widget has nothing to show until one is checked.
When done, select Save Block.
Hover the widget block and select the preview control to see the real widget.

Team (required) — The team whose data you want to show. Type to search.
Display widget header — Shows the widget’s own heading above its content.
Refresh time — Controls how often the published widget refetches its data. Leave empty to use your project’s global refresh setting.

What the American Football Lineups Widget shows

For each side the widget shows:

Starters — starting players: the players on the field to open the match
Subs — substitutes: players available from the roster

Preview of the American Football Lineups Widget

The widget shows both squads, split into starters and substitutes.

Good to know

Only the preview shows the real widget. The collapsed block and the options panel show a CMS summary card instead — always check preview before publishing.

The preview area is narrower than a published page, so the widget uses its compact layout there and may hide columns that the published version shows.
The widget always renders whichever version of the sports widgets library your project is on. There is no version to set.
