Free tools · No sign-up · Nothing saved
Free tournament tools that actually run the event.
Every generator below runs in your browser: paste a team list and see the real shape of your event — match counts, rounds, byes, standings — then type scores and watch it resolve. Nothing is saved and nothing is emailed. When you want the same format to stay live for everyone else, it runs on Tournamyx Scores.

By format
Start here if you know the shape.
The format decides everything else — how many matches you play, how many games each team is guaranteed, and whether you finish before the venue closes. Each page shows the real numbers for your team count before you commit to anything.
- 01Bracket generatorAny format, seeded or random, scored live from any phone.
- 02Round robin generatorEvery team plays every team — fixtures, standings, live scores.
- 03Group + knockout generatorWorld Cup format: groups that feed a bracket automatically.
- 04Schedule makerConflict-free match times across your real courts.
- 05Single elimination bracketStraight knockout — byes placed, winners advance live.
By team count
Start here if you know the number.
Team count changes more than it looks. Eight and sixteen fill a bracket exactly; twelve needs four byes and twenty-four needs eight, and where those byes land decides whether the draw is fair. Each page opens with that many teams already loaded.
- 8 team bracketThree rounds, seven matches, no byes — the cleanest draw there is.
- 12 team bracketEleven matches, four byes — placed on the top seeds automatically.
- 16 team bracketFifteen matches, four rounds, no byes — the classic full draw.
- 24 team bracketTwenty-three matches, eight byes, five rounds — plan the courts first.
By sport
Or start from what you actually run.
Slot lengths are what make a format work or fail, and they are entirely sport-specific — a fixture list that fits a pickleball morning needs three days of football pitches. These pages do the arithmetic with the right numbers.
The honest bit
What these tools don’t do.
Nothing on these pages is saved. Close the tab and the bracket is gone — there is no account, no database, and no link to send anyone. That is deliberate: it means you can try a format with your real team list without signing up for anything or handing over an email address.
What it also means is that these are planning tools, not event tools. The moment the first result comes in, a bracket that only exists in your browser stops being useful — you end up screenshotting it into a group chat, and then re-screenshotting it after every match.
That handover is the whole point of Tournamyx Scores: the same formats, but the draw, the schedule, the scoring and one public link are a single system. Events up to 8 teams are free, and the same engine has run a 406-team, 755-match event.
If you are weighing this up against something else, the comparison checklist lists the questions worth asking of any tournament tool — including this one.
