Get Started Free!

  • Create your tournament for free right now! Only pay when you want to schedule your tournament or use online registration.
  • To get started, login. Don't have an account yet? Register first! Then, create your tournament on the My Tournaments page.

Pre-Tournament Setup

  • Choose the events that occur at your tournament, determine deadlines, and create the invitation. Most of the invitation is automatically generated based on your choices for events, deadlines, etc. This includes instructions for schools to register online.

Registration

  • Tournament attendees submit their entries online. This includes the number of entries in each event, how many judges they are bringing, and the fees they owe.
  • Once a team has registered, they can submit adds and drops via the online registration tool. This eliminates any miscommunication, and automates the add/drop process!

Scheduling

  • Schedule your tournament with our "Fair-Match" algorithm, ensuring contestants are on a level playing field with no favorites! Unless impossible, contestants from the same school will not be scheduled in the same round, and contestants will see different competition throughout the day.
  • Scheduling can automatically assign rooms for each section, or you can choose to manually assign rooms through our easy-to-use room scheduler.
  • Notifies you if your event should be "flighted" (when there isn't enough room in your facility to run every section concurrently).
  • Judges are automatically assigned to sections, with the software ensuring that judges are not judging one school more than others.

Tabulation

  • With virtual or electronic tournaments, judges enter their scores directly into the secure website. Paper tournaments have full electronic audit logs of scores entered by tab room personnel.
  • Elimination rounds (finals, semi-finals, etc.) are automatically generated with judges assigned either automatically or manually.
  • Supports multiple contestant divisions (Novice/Varsity, etc.).
  • All scores are secure and stored on our web servers with a 99.9% uptime guarantee.

  • Room signs (events occurring in that room at each time)

  • Judge assignment sheets
  • Judges' ballots! (listing room number, time, and contestants!)
  • Judge name tags
  • Tab sheets
  • Awards assembly script
  • Master room assignment list
  • Master judge assignment list
