Rename “Competitions”

Thoughts on renaming “competitions” to “events”? Most clubs don’t host competitions (this is a high performance sounding word). They host bonspiels, open houses, fun nights, etc.

You can now change the label for your competitions to "Bonspiel", "Event", or "Tournament".

I'm definitely not married to "Competitions". Why not just name it "Bonspiels" though? "Events" feels a bit generic no?

Bobby Ray

Dave Rapin: I think I like that it's generic (and therefore flexible). An event may not be a bonspiel - it may be an open house, drop-in Friday night, non-curling event (a dinner, a dance, a dart tournament). And this will change the naming of the event for associations too correct? They are running competitions, not bonspiels - so event may cover off both.

Dave Rapin

Bobby Ray: OK I think it's worth considering. (P.S. "Event" is actually the parent model for both leagues and competitions in the back end).
