Online tournament bracket
Offline knockout bracket, no server needed
Plan a knockout tournament without participants or results being stored on a server. The bracket stays in this browser and is ready immediately when one person runs the tournament.
Please do not enter sensitive personal data. Use first names, initials or neutral labels when needed.
Saved local lists
These lists exist only in this browser. They are not stored by TeamCounter and cannot be shared.

The online version stores the list on TeamCounter and gives you a view link, a management link and access from several devices.
The local tournament bracket at a glance
The local bracket suits game nights, club parties or training sessions where one device runs the tournament. Seeding, byes, results and corrections work just like online.
Participants and seeding
You enter 3 to 16 participants, and their order is the seeding list. If slots in the bracket stay empty, the top seeds receive a bye.
No view link
A local tournament has no view link and no management link, and nobody can open it from another device. If participants should follow along on their own phones, use the online tournament bracket.
Where the data lives
The tournament is kept in this website's browser database on this device. It survives reloads and browser restarts, but is lost as soon as you clear the site data. In private browsing mode it can disappear earlier.

Questions and answers
Where is a local tournament stored?
Only in the browser database of this device. TeamCounter does not store the tournament on the server, so no view link and no management link are created.
When is a local tournament lost?
It survives reloads and browser restarts. It is lost when you clear cookies and site data for this website. In private browsing mode it can disappear earlier.
Does it work without an internet connection?
A page that is already open accepts results without a connection and saves them in this browser. Loading or reloading the page needs an internet connection.
Do I need an account?
No, there is no registration and no login. The local tournament starts immediately.
Can I switch to the online version later?
Yes, create a new tournament online. Participants and results are not transferred automatically.
