## What is Bracket Maker?

BUILD YOUR TOURNAMENT

Create a tournament, make the draw, and follow every match to the final. Tournament Bracket Maker is a tournament organizer for knockout brackets, group stages and Swiss competitions, whether you're running an esports event, football or soccer tournament, school competition, club event, or a contest with friends.

Choose your format, add your teams or players, and let the tournament take shape.

CHOOSE YOUR COMPETITION FORMAT

• Single Elimination Bracket: Make every match count. Winners advance through the knockout rounds until two finalists compete for the trophy. Add a 3rd place match for the losing semifinalists.

• Double Elimination Bracket: One loss doesn't have to end the journey. Participants who lose enter the Losers Bracket for another chance to reach the Grand Final against the Championship Bracket winner.

• Groups to Bracket: Begin with a group stage before the knockout rounds. Set group sizes, choose how many teams qualify, and customize points and tiebreakers. Follow the group tables and fixtures as the bracket takes shape.

• Swiss to Bracket: Give participants multiple rounds to compete for a knockout place. Choose a fixed number of Swiss rounds or a win/loss limit, track the standings, and seed the qualifiers into the bracket.

• Consolation Bracket: Give eliminated participants another chance to compete. Choose whether first-round losers only enter, or whether participants eliminated through the quarterfinals can join. Follow their progress as they play for the consolation title.

• Two-Legged Matches: Play each knockout tie over two matches. The combined score determines who advances. Prefer a quicker competition? Choose single-leg matches instead.

MAKE THE DRAW

Add participants manually, bring in your saved teams or players, or choose from country teams. Shuffle the draw with Random Draw or use Manual Order to decide the starting positions yourself.

Run brackets with up to 256 participants. Automatic byes help complete the draw when needed. Enter scores as matches are played, or tap to declare winners when you don't need to track scores.

FOLLOW THE ACTION

See who's through, which fixtures are ready, and where participants go next. Pan and zoom around large brackets, follow group tables and Swiss standings, and keep track of the competition from the opening matches to the champion.

SIMULATE YOUR TOURNAMENT

Want to see how a draw might play out or enjoy a game-like tournament? Simulate matches and watch scores develop over time. Choose your simulation duration, then follow the action through each round.

BUILD YOUR TEAMS AND PLAYERS

Create custom teams and players, add images, and reuse them in future competitions. You can also choose country teams and their flags.

As tournaments are completed, see medals and match statistics build up. Sort by trophies to compare records and see who has earned their place at the top.

COMPARE HEAD TO HEAD

Want to know how two rivals stack up? Long-press a team or player and select Head to Head to compare their record, scores, percentages and recent meetings against an opponent.

SAVE YOUR TOURNAMENT HISTORY

Revisit completed competitions and their results whenever you want to look back. Duplicate a tournament to create another edition, or start a new season using an existing competition as your starting point.

SET YOUR PREFERENCES

Use Settings → Presets to choose defaults for your tournament setup, including elimination format, scoring, match format, and simulation duration. Your preferences can carry into the creation flow when you're ready to set up the next one.

FROM FIRST DRAW TO FINAL WHISTLE

Create the bracket. Play or simulate the matches. Follow every result. And when the tournament is over, see who lifted the trophy.

Tournament Bracket Maker fixtures manager supports 6 languages - English, Français, Deutsch, Italiano, Español, Português(Br)
