Tournament Type combo box
Choose the type of tournament you would like to create. The
following options are available:
- Single Elimination - Teams play until they
lose. Once they lose, they are kicked out of the
tournament.
- Double Elimination - Teams must lose twice
before being kicked out of the tournament. When a team
loses the first time, it moves down to the losers
bracket. Once in the losers bracket, a team still has a
shot at the championship game provided it doesn't lose
again.
- Consolation - Teams must lose twice before
being kicked out of the tournament. When a team loses
the first time, it moves to the consolation bracket.
Unlike the double-elimination tournament, once in the
consolation bracket there is no more play with the
winning bracket. The tournament ends with a tournament
winner, and a consolation winner.
- Consolation First Round Losers Only - If a team
loses after the first round in the tournament (from the
winning brackets or the consolation brackets), they are
kicked out. Teams losing the first round game in the
tournament continue on in the consolation round.
