In chess tournaments they try to have like leveled players playing each other in the first round so this would make first round match-ups look like 1v2 3v4 5v6 and 7v8. With losers feeding into the losers bracket and winners advancing to eventually meet the survivor of the losers bracket.In single elimination tournaments the higher seeds usually play the lower seeds such as 1v8 2v7 3v6 and 4v5. I think most double elimination tournaments follow this format. In the double elimination brackets I created I followed this format and tried to randomize things so players in the losers bracket would be less likely to meet up with the person who put them in the losers bracket in the first place.

Use an 8 team bracket with a single play-in game between the 8 and 9 seeded teams.

The 8-9 winner plays the 1 seed in the first round

The 2 seed plays the 7 seed in the first round.

The 3 seed plays the 6 seed in the first round.

The 4 seed plays the 5 seed in the first round.

The 8/9 vs. 1 winner plays the 2 vs. 7 winner in the semi-finals.

The 3 vs. 6 winner plays the 4 vs. 5 winner in the semi-finals.

The remaining winners play in the championship while the losers play in a consolation game if one is so ordered.

My bracket for a double elimination tournament at bracketman.com has the 13 seed and the 12 seed playing a play in game to play the 11 seed. The winner of the 11 v 12/13 plays the 1 seed. The 10 v 9 winner plays the 2 seed, 7 v 8 winner plays 3 and 5 v 6 plays the 4 seed. The losers feed into the losers bracket where the ultimate winner of that bracket plays the winner of the winners bracket. Enjoy!

What are the different kinds of elimination in intramural?

In intramural sports, there are typically two common types of elimination formats: single-elimination and double-elimination. In single-elimination, a team is eliminated from the competition after losing one game. In double-elimination, a team has to lose twice before being eliminated, offering a second chance to teams that lose their first game.


What the formula of double elimination tournament?

A double elimination tournament means you have to lose twice before being eliminated from the competition. If you lose once, you are sent to the "losers' bracket". In the losers' bracket you are allowed to continue competing against other teams that have also lost once. If you lose a second time you are eliminated. The winner of the losers' bracket places third in the overall competition.

What is the difference between pool and bracket games in softball?

Often times in a tournament, pool play is a set number of games before you get to "elimination play." Each team is guaranteed the same number of pool play games. For many tournaments your performance/record in pool play determines where you get bracketed for elimination play. Sometimes pool play has different time limit rules than bracket play. As a coach, it is certainly something you need to be aware of.
