Rugby Tournament Programme Widget
Add a rugby competition fixture list to a post.
The Tournament Programme widget lists the fixtures for an entire rugby competition and season, grouped by round.
The fastest way to add a Rugby widget: hover any block and click the Rugby icon directly — no need to open the full block picker and search a category list.
Preconditions
- Your project must have the Rugby feature enabled. Widget categories are switched on per project, so if Rugby widgets does not appear in the block picker, ask your administrator to enable it.
- You need permission to create or edit articles.
- The competition and season you choose must have fixtures recorded.
Adding the Rugby Tournament Programme Widget to a post
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 Rugby icon is highlighted here.

- Select the Rugby icon, then choose Tournament Programme from the widget list that opens.

- Set the widget options. Competition, Season, Stage, Round and others 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.

- When done, select Save Block.

- Hover the widget block and select the preview control to see the real widget.
Rugby Tournament Programme Widget options
- Competition (required) — The competition whose data you want to show.
- Season — The season within the chosen competition. Options depend on which competition you selected above.
- Stage — Limits the widget to a single stage of the competition, such as a group phase or a knockout round.
- Round — Limits the programme to a single round rather than the whole competition.
- Limit — The maximum number of rows to display.
- Date from — The start of the date range to show fixtures for.
- Date to — The end of the date range to show fixtures for.
- Sort direction of fixtures — Whether upcoming fixtures are listed soonest-first or furthest-first.
- Sort direction of results — Whether past results are listed most-recent-first or oldest-first.
- Display widget header — Shows the widget’s own heading above its content.
- Display odds — Shows betting odds alongside the fixture, where available.
- Select bookmaker — The bookmaker whose odds are shown, when odds are enabled.
- Default header option — Which grouping is shown first when the widget loads, before a reader picks another.
- Refresh time — Controls how often the published widget refetches its data. Leave empty to use your project’s global refresh setting.
What the Rugby Tournament Programme Widget shows
Each fixture row shows:
- Date — kick-off: when the match is played, in your project timezone
- Teams — the two sides: home and away teams with their crests
- S — score: the final score once the match is complete

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.
- This covers Rugby Union and Rugby League alike — which competitions and matches are available depends on your project’s data, not on the widget itself.
- If your development team integrates this data directly through the API rather than through this CMS, the sport key to use is rugby_union, not rugby — the CMS handles this translation for you automatically.
