Tournament schedule maker that never double-books a team
A tournament schedule has to respect your courts, your hours, and the fact that no team can be in two places at once. Tournamyx generates one that does — in seconds, not the night before.

Field guide
What a real tournament schedule has to respect
A tournament schedule is a constraint problem wearing a spreadsheet costume. No team can be in two places at once. Rest gaps have to be humane — nobody should play three matches back-to-back while another team naps for two hours. Courts should stay busy, because idle courts are the most expensive thing at your venue. And in multi-stage events, the knockout can’t start until the results it depends on exist.
Miss any one of those and the day unravels in the group chat. This is why hand-written schedules survive first contact with exactly zero dropped-out teams.
How long will your tournament take?
The back-of-napkin formula: time slots = matches ÷ courts (rounded up), duration = slots × match length. It’s the fastest way to sanity-check whether your format fits your venue booking before you commit to it.
The real number is always a little higher, because fair rest gaps and round boundaries add slack — which is exactly the arithmetic the schedule engine does for you, alongside the round robin or bracket structure itself.
30-minute matches, no rest constraints
| Matches | Courts | Slots | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| 15 (6-team round robin) | 2 | 8 | ~4 h |
| 28 (8-team round robin) | 4 | 7 | ~3.5 h |
| 23 (24-team knockout) | 4 | 8+ | ~4 h + round gaps |
| 56 (as in the shot below) | 8 | 7 | ~3.5 h |
Why the full schedule maker lives in Tournamyx Scores
The preview above shows the shape of a conflict-free schedule; the full schedule maker needs to know things a landing page shouldn’t ask for — your real team list, court names, match lengths, rest rules, and how your stages chain together. That’s a tournament, not a demo, so it lives in Tournamyx Scores, where the schedule it builds is also the one that runs live on match day.

What makes the schedule conflict-free?
No team is ever scheduled on two courts in the same time slot, and fixtures are spread so courts stay busy while rest gaps stay fair. The same engine scheduled 755 matches across a 406-team event.
Can it schedule across multiple courts or fields?
Yes — that’s the point. Tell Tournamyx how many courts, fields, or arenas you have and fixtures are allocated across all of them, with idle time minimised automatically.
Can I change the schedule after it’s published?
Yes. Swap fixtures or reorder teams with drag-and-drop and the public link updates instantly — no reprinting, no group-chat corrections.
Can I print the schedule and scoresheets?
Yes. Export the full match schedule and blank scoresheets for every court as print-ready PDFs. On Pro, they carry your organization’s logo.
How do teams find out their match times?
One link, opened in any browser. Teams see their fixtures, courts, and times on their phones — and live scores once play starts. No app, no accounts.
Is the tournament schedule maker free?
Yes for events with up to 8 teams, with unlimited events and no credit card. Larger tournaments upgrade to a paid plan or unlock a single event for a one-off fee.
