PRACTICAL GUIDE

How to use tournament bracket generator

Shuffle entrants into the opening round of a single-elimination bracket, using byes when the count is not a power of two.

Three steps

  1. Paste entrant names, up to 64.
  2. Generate the opening matches.
  3. Print the bracket and fill in winners as the tournament progresses.

Example

Five entrants produce an eight-slot opening round with three byes.

When it helps

Start a casual knockout competition without manually seeding its first round.

What to keep in mind

This is an opening-round draw, not a complete tournament manager; it does not track later results or rankings.
