Planning a pool tournament?
Start with the pool tournament software guide to choose a setup for your event. Use the pool tournament checklist for player lists, format, seeding, tables, and score handling. Print the one-page event-day sheet for the venue and use the match log sheet to record games. Use the staffing handoff plan to assign match calling, score recording, and exception decisions. Then compare the four bracket formats and use the match-count estimator to plan table workload before entries open.
For setup instructions, use the first-tournament guide or watch the step-by-step tutorials. Brackets Manager runs on Windows. Eligible new Windows installations include three complimentary Basic brackets for complete local tournaments. Connected live brackets, online signup and scoring, browser-based player and operator tools, and text messaging require paid Pro.
