How to track the tournament for your office
- 1
Choose your starting round
The template starts at the Sweet 16 (16 teams). Change the team count to 32 if you want to start from the Round of 32.
- 2
Enter teams in bracket order
The first two teams on your list play each other, then the next two. Enter them from the top of the official bracket to the bottom so matchups line up.
- 3
Keep single elimination
The real tournament is single elimination. mybracket.app also adds a third-place game; the real tournament doesn't play one, so you can skip it. The champion is crowned when the final is marked.
- 4
Mark winners as games end
Tap the winner after each game. If you click the wrong team, undo it.
- 5
Share it with the office
Post the read-only link in Slack or Teams, or put it on the break-room TV. Reload to see the latest results.
