Football (Soccer) Terminology
The plugin uses WordPress's gettext filter at priority 20 to remap SportsPress strings to football conventions.
Label mappings

The mappings apply only to the sportspress text domain.
Where the labels appear
Admin menu — "Matches", "Grounds", and "Clubs" replace the SportsPress defaults
Post type labels — Edit screens, list tables, and Add New buttons
Frontend — Section headings on team and player pages where the theme uses the SportsPress text domain
Performance entry — Own Goals column reads "OG" via the text-options table
Disabling specific remappings
To keep a label as the SportsPress default, register a higher-priority gettext filter:
add_filter( 'gettext', function( $translated, $original, $domain ) {
if ( $domain === 'sportspress' && $original === 'Teams' ) {
return $original;
}
return $translated;
}, 25, 3 );
