Double-Elimination Tournament Planner
Run a tournament with winners’ and losers’ brackets. Enter scores, follow each entrant’s progress and handle a possible grand-final reset.
How does a double-elimination bracket work?
Entrants begin in the winners’ bracket. After a first defeat they move into the losers’ bracket; a second defeat eliminates them. The winners of the two brackets meet in the grand final. If the previously unbeaten entrant loses that final, a second final decides the champion.
