How to Use the Tournament System
1Create a Tournament
From your league page, go to Tournaments → Create Tournament. Give it a name and choose a format.
2Choose the Format
Three formats are available:
- Knockout — single elimination. Lose once and you're out
- Round Robin — everyone plays everyone. Most points wins
- Groups + Knockout — group stage first, then the top players from each group advance to a knockout bracket
3Add Participants
Select which players from the league will participate in the tournament. Optionally set seeds for knockout tournaments — seeded players are placed on opposite sides of the bracket to avoid meeting early.
4Generate the Bracket
Click "Generate Bracket" to create the fixture structure:
- Knockout — creates the full bracket with byes if needed
- Round Robin — creates all matches (everyone vs everyone)
- Groups + Knockout — creates group stage matches first
5Play Matches
Record results for each tournament match as they are played. The bracket updates automatically as matches complete — winners advance to the next round in knockout formats.
6Complete the Tournament
Once all matches are played, mark the tournament as complete to finalize the results and crown the winner.
