  • Create a plan with an odd number of teams? up ↑

    League
    You need an odd number of teams, then create a game plan with the next higher even number of teams and name the last team "Free game". After the teams have been entered completely, you can remove the desired teams, i.e. all free games, from the rounds under "Match pairings". They will then no longer appear as match dates.

    Tournament
    If you need a tournament with an unsuitable number of teams (not equal to 4, 8, 16, 32, 64), then create a tournament with the next highest number of teams. Enter the free games in such a way that they are evenly distributed or that selected teams receive free games. Each free game must be assigned to a team, otherwise two free games will play against each other. View example
    All teams competing against "free games" only have to be entered as winners in order for them to progress. This procedure is also used for standard tournament plans, such as city championships or club championships. A technical alternative is currently not possible.
