Questions

Is DrawBrackets free?

Yes. Make, print and share brackets for free, with no account.

How are byes placed?

When the number of teams is not a power of two, the top seeds get byes into round two, so no team plays an extra game.

How does double elimination work?

A team is out after its second loss. Losers drop into a second bracket, and its winner meets the winners-bracket champion in the final.

What is a 3-game guarantee?

Every team plays at least three games. Ours is built on a double elimination bracket: a team that loses its first two games gets a guarantee game against another early loser. See how it works or print one for 4 to 16 teams.

Can I get a bracket in Excel?

Yes. Every printable single and double elimination bracket and every round robin schedule has an Excel file next to its PDF: the bracket drawn in cells, or the schedule with one game per row. Pick a size, or see how to use it in Excel or Google Sheets.

Do players need to download an app?

No. The live link opens in any phone browser.
