Built for basketball

How TourneyPage runs a basketball tournament.

Recommended format

Single elimination

Five-on-five basketball tournaments are usually single elimination: one bracket, one champion, and a clear schedule of who plays next. Weekend events often open with pool play, then seed the bracket from the standings.

Scoring

Points, overtime marked OT

Enter scores as the game goes with Save Score, then Save as Final at the buzzer. The winner moves into the next round automatically.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Does it handle overtime?

Yes. Mark a game as decided in overtime and the public page shows OT with the final score.

Can I give every team two games?

Yes. Run pool play so every team plays everyone in its pool before the playoff, or generate a double-elimination bracket; TourneyPage builds the losers bracket and an if-necessary final.

Do parents need an app?

No. Fans open your link in any browser. There's no app to download and no account to create.
