Football Tournament

Eleven-a-side or fewer, a pitch or a city court, and the buzz of a real neighborhood tournament. Here's how to organize a football tournament without a paper bracket.

Why football works well as a tournament

A good tournament fits on a handful of stations for 16 to 32 entrants in a single day, thanks to a pool stage followed by a knockout bracket.

Recommended format

Duo Team, pools then a knockout bracket — built for 5- or 7-a-side on a small pitch rather than full 11-a-side.

What kind of football does this cover?

5- or 7-a-side on a small pitch works best: short matches, several teams, one pitch running all day.

How are pool ties broken?

By number of wins; if it's still tied for a qualifying spot, Leaguer automatically sets up a short tiebreak match.

Find or organize a tournament

Organizers who make their tournament public show up in the list of active tournaments — open sign-ups, live results, no code needed to join.

Organize yours

Whether it's with friends, a club, or a company event, Leaguer handles sign-ups, pool draws, and the final bracket — free, no setup.
