I have a site that is used by a group of folks that play golf online.

I've installed Tournaments & Ladders and it looks to have installed fine. But given that I am not familiar with online gaming sites that use things like this I am a bit lost applying it to my site.

First - we have two basic types of tournaments. Match Play and Stroke Play. Match Play tournaments are similar to Ryder Cup, or for that matter tennis bracket tournaments if you are familiar with them. Stroke Play are similar to the PGA's weekly tournaments. Players play 4 rounds. Combine the scores. Lowest score wins the tournament.

Looking at it quickly it seems "Tournaments" lends itself to the match play concept. Can ladders be used for the weekly stroke play?

Also, I figured out how to set up matches. For example if I have 8 players competing I can easily set up the first 4 matches. But how do I set up the next bracket (i.e. the 4 winners playing 2 rounds, and they the two remaining going against one another. In other words how do I set up the complete bracket?

Also, how can I use categories?

Thanks!
