MyTournament.info is an advanced application for organizing tournaments.
For several tournament brackets, there is now an additional visitor page where the final round
can be displayed graphically.
Visitors can immediately see in one overview how the final round is structured.
This includes the route from groups or earlier matches to the next round,
the semi-finals and ultimately the final.
Only when the original routing remains intact
The graphical overview can only be displayed reliably when the original
structure of the bracket has remained unchanged. The origin of teams must therefore stay unchanged.
This refers to which previous match or group a qualification comes from.
Changes to practical match information may of course still be made.
For example:
- start times;
- locations or fields;
- referees.
Such changes do not alter the route through the bracket. The overview therefore remains usable.
When changes have been made that affect the routing,
or when final matches have been removed, the graphical overview is not displayed.
This ensures the information for visitors always remains correct.
Which tournament types are supported?
The graphical display is available for several tournament types.
Which types are shown depends on the language setting of the website.
Below is the current list of supported tournament types.

View one category at a time
Only one category is displayed at a time on the visitor page.
When a graphical final bracket is available for multiple categories,
the visitor can select another category through a dropdown list.
This keeps the screen clear and organized, even for larger tournaments
with multiple age groups, levels or classes.
Highlighting the route through the bracket
A useful addition is the highlighting of the route.
When a match is clicked, the incoming and outgoing paths
of that match are highlighted.
This immediately shows which earlier matches or groups influence that match,
and to which next match the winner or loser progresses.
Especially in larger final rounds, this makes the bracket much easier to follow.
Zooming in and out
For larger brackets, it is easy to zoom in and out using the blue zoom buttons.
The green button restores the original zoom setting.
This allows the visitor to quickly switch between detailed view and overall overview.
More clarity for players and supporters
With this graphical visitor page, the decisive phase of a tournament is presented more clearly.
Players, coaches, supporters and organizers can more quickly see how the final round is structured
and which route teams can take towards the final.
This makes following the decisive phase of a tournament clearer,
more interactive and more user-friendly.
