Run a tournament from the first draw to the trophy, on the phone in your pocket. Type the names, pick a format, and Bracket Maker builds the whole thing — seeding, byes, every round. Enter a score at the desk and the winner is already in the next match. When it's over, print the bracket for the wall or send it to the group chat. BUILT FOR THE PERSON RUNNING IT - Type or paste a list of names — one per line, straight from Notes or a spreadsheet - Seeding and byes worked out for you, or draw at random - Score by points or just tap the winner — plenty of events don't track points - Best-of series, draws, forfeits and no-shows all handled - Fix a wrong score any time; everything after it follows - Save a squad once and reuse it next season EVERY FORMAT - Single elimination, with an optional third-place match - Double elimination, with or without a bracket reset - Round robin, single or double, with a live table - Swiss — set the number of rounds, paired by score, nobody knocked out - Pools into a playoff — set how many advance from each group THE WHOLE DAY, COURT BY COURT - Deal every match across your courts with start times - Rest between rounds so nobody plays back to back - Override the court or the time on any single match - The match in progress on your Lock Screen, score and all SOMETHING TO SHOW FOR IT - Vector PDF, US Letter or A4, sharp at any size — for the noticeboard - An image for the group chat - A 9:16 card for stories - A live link anyone can open — the bracket updates as you score it - Team logos on screen and in every export FROM 2 TO 99 COMPETITORS Teams or individuals. Pickleball, basketball, soccer, darts, cornhole, pool, volleyball, board games, esports — or anything else with a winner.

TourneyMind runs the whole tournament — from the schedule that takes a weekend to build by hand, to the scores a parent refreshes from the bleachers. FOR DIRECTORS • Build a schedule that respects real constraints — a coach with two teams, a gym that opens late, a team that cannot play before noon. • Pools, brackets, seeding and standings, kept in sync as scores land. • One game-day screen: what is playing on every court, who has not checked in yet, which pool just finished and which division is ready for medals. • Reach a coach in one tap when something needs sorting out right now. FOR COACHES AND TEAMS • Your schedule, your pool, your bracket, and where you are playing next. • Check your team in at the desk. • Message the director without hunting for a phone number. FOR PARENTS AND FANS • Follow a team and get a notification when their game is about to start and when the final score lands. • Live scores, standings and brackets, no account needed. Registration fees collected through TourneyMind buy entry to a real, in-person sporting event at a named venue on a named date. TourneyMind is built by TourneyMind LLC.
