About the 3 team single elimination format

One loss and you are out. Single elimination is the fastest format: every round halves the field until one champion is left. Sizes that are not a power of two get first-round byes for the top seeds.

Open it in Easy Bracket Maker to type real team names, seed them, enter scores and let the bracket update automatically. Export as SVG, PNG or PDF, or share a spectator link.

Questions

How many games are in a single elimination bracket?

Always one fewer than the number of teams. Every game eliminates exactly one team, and all but the champion are eliminated.

What is a bye?

A bye is a free pass through a round. When the field is not a power of two (4, 8, 16, 32), the highest seeds skip round one so the bracket lines up.

Can I add a third-place match?

Yes. Create the bracket in the app and add a consolation match between the two semi-final losers from the match list.
