Tournament Planner

Plan a tournament or league, share an easy-to-follow schedule, and record results as you play.

Schedule typeTournament nameTournament locationTeams or players One per line · 2–32 entries total

Enter one team per line. For separate groups, turn on Use divisions below. List strongest seeds first, or choose shuffle.

Use divisions Optional — e.g. Junior and Senior. Leave off for one Open group.

Teams that should not play each other (optional)

Choose pairs to omit from league or round-robin games. This removes every scheduled meeting for each pair. Teams may finish with different numbers of games played; agree your standings and tie-break rules.

Single-elimination brackets cannot guarantee these exclusions. For a round-robin tournament, turn off Include playoffs if the selected teams could meet in its playoff bracket. Recreating a schedule resets recorded results.

League home-game slots

League start dateLeague end date

Enter the season’s date range. Weekly home-game slots repeat only within these dates.

Games against each opponent

Choose each team’s home-game weekday, start time and venue. For example, Tuesday at 6 p.m. repeats throughout the league date range. The scheduler assigns opponents from the same division to available dates. Add another weekly slot if a team can host on more than one day. Each home-and-away choice sets how often you host each opponent, with the same number of away visits. For 3 meetings, each pair plays once at each venue plus a third game: one team has 1 home + 2 away and the other has 2 home + 1 away. Extra home games are balanced across teams in each division before exclusions. Team order determines who hosts the extra game. Add enough weekly slots or extend the season for all meetings. You can also add an optional backup weekday and time inside each home slot. Primary choices are tried first. Unused dates remain free.

Game duration and the gap between games apply to every team. Identical venue names are treated as the same playing area—use distinct names for separate courts. Times are local as entered; no time-zone conversion is applied.

Lock specific league matchups (optional)

Reserve the home and away teams, date, start time and venue before the rest of the league is filled. A locked game counts toward the selected meetings and may use a special time outside the weekly slots. It must be within the regular-season date range and obey team availability and maintenance breaks.

Include playoffs after the league regular season

Schedule a single-elimination championship bracket. After entering regular-season scores, confirm the qualifying teams from the standings.

Tournament format

Include playoffs after round robinRound-robin playoff places per division

Elimination divisions send their winners to an overall championship bracket. A single elimination division already ends with its own final. Playoff games are included in the dates and court schedule.

Playing-area names (optional)

One per line, matching the number of courts. Leave blank to use Court 1, Court 2, etc.

Try to limit teams to two games per week

Optional. Weeks run Monday through Sunday. Spread league, tournament and playoff games across weeks when possible. Locked matchups stay fixed. Limited dates, gym times or playoff paths may still require more than two games in a week.

Try to avoid back-to-back games

Allow multiple games on the same day, but try to place another game or a full time block between a team’s games. If space is limited, consecutive games may still be needed.

Try to limit teams to one game per day

Optional. Prefer different dates for a team’s games. Limited dates or playoffs may still require multiple games on one day.

Team order

Tournament days

Add each playing date with its own start and finish time. Dates you leave out have no games. Check Prefer this day on one or more dates to concentrate games there; other listed dates remain available when needed.

Courts / playing areas

Minutes per game

Between time slots

When teams cannot play (optional)

Select one or more teams and enter the date and the unavailable start and finish times. Add another entry for a different period. Games in the same time block may move together.

Cleaning / maintenance break (optional)

Break date

Start time

Duration in minutes

All courts pause. Games that would overlap the break move to after it. Leave date and time blank for no break.

Additional breaks (optional)

One per line: YYYY-MM-DD | start time (24-hour) | minutes. These can be lunch, cleaning or assembly breaks.

Games use only the dates you list, within each day’s start and finish times. Divisions share the courts; each round finishes before the next starts. Increase the gap for changeovers and rest.
