LESSON 1 Sports Tournament

One of the most important tasks in staging a sport competition is scheduling. Sports
tournaments should have a good schedule to avoid confusion among the participants. Among
several factors to be considered in determining the types of tournaments to be used are:

1. Facilities
2. Availability of facilities and equipment
3. Number of days for the tournament
4. officiating officials

Tie Breaking procedures should also be classified and agreed upon by

participating teams to erase doubts about the fairness of the tournaments.

Types of Tournaments
1. A single-elimination is a type of elimination tournament where the loser of each
match-up is immediately eliminated from the tournament. Each winner will play
another in the next round, until the final match-up, whose winner becomes the
tournament champion. This also called Knock-out system.

Formula: G=N-1 Where G- number of games

N- number of teams

Example:

N= 6
G= 6-1=5

After knowing the number of the games to be played, the next step is to determine
the number of team to play in the first round of the tournament. To avoid having
uneven number of teams in the second round of the tournament, the number of byes in
the first round must be determined first. A bye entitles a team to advance to the next
round without playing. To do this number of teams is subtracted from the power of
two ( 2,4,8,16,32,etc)

3
Formula: P² -N
Where P-least power of 2 higher than N
N- Number of entries

Example: 6- number of entry teams

8- least power of 2 higher than N Bye=
8-6
bye =2 ( number of byes)

Procedure
1. Compute the number of games using the formula in a single elimination
2. Determine the number of byes and distribute them evenly in the upper and
lower brackets
3. Pairing of teams should be done through the drawing of lots.

4
Double Elimination

2. Double Elimination- In this type of elimination, a team should be defeated twice

before it is declared out of the competition. It is the fairest type of tournament.

Formula:

G=2(N-1)

where G-number of games

N- number of teams

Example: 6 teams competing in a double elimination

G=2(N-1)

G=2(6-1)

G=2(5)

G=10 games

5
Procedure
1. Determine the number of games to be played using the formula for double
elimination.
2. Determine the number of byes using the formula for single elimination for byes
and distribute them only evenly in the upper and lower brackets.
3. Make sure that the winners from previous tournaments will not meet in the first
round of the tournament.
4. Round Robin is a common type of tournament schedule among team sports such as
basketball, volleyball, softball, and baseball. The round robin type of tournament
provides the opportunity for each competing team to play against every other team.

6
Formula:
Example: 6 teams competing in a round robin
G= N(N-1)
2

G= 6(6-1) = 6(5) =30

2 2 2
G= 15 number of games

Round 1 Round 2 Round 3 Round 4 Round 5

1 vs 6 1 vs 5 1 vs 4 1 vs 3 1 vs 2
2 vs 5 6 vs 4 5 vs 3 4 vs 2 3 vs 6
3 vs 4 2 vs 3 6 vs 2 5 vs 6 4 vs 5

Procedure

1. Compute the number of games using the formula on the preceding page in the
round robin tournament
2. With each number representing a team, arrange the teams evenly in two vertical
columns. Pair the teams that are adjacent in each column. Thus, in the first round
for 6, you will have Team 1 vs Team 6, Team 2 vs Team 5, and Team 3 vs Team
4.
3. Rotate the numbers counterclockwise in the two columns for the next round.
pair the teams. Rotate the numbers again for each subsequent round.
4. All number ones are constant.

of byes for single elimination, double elimination and Round Robin?

2. What are the advantages and disadvantages of tournaments style mention above?

3. If you are were a sports manager, when will you use single elimination,

 Activity 2. “ Build Me Up”
Directions: Analyze the following situations. Write your answers on a separate sheet of
paper:

1. A certain barangay will conduct its annual Sangguniang Kabataan Volleyball

League. There are ten (10) participating teams in baseball. You are given the
chance to be the tournament director. Construct a diagram for;
a. single elimination b. Double Elimination c. Round Robin

2. An invitational basketball tournament will be held in your subdivision. Eight

(8) basketball teams signified their intention to join. You are assigned as
tournament manager.
Using the three (3) common tournaments systems, construct a diagram for

3. Compute the number of byes in a tournament with eight (8) participating

teams using single elimination.

Summary
 Single Elimination is the easiest and fastest way to determine a winner. It is
also known as the knockout system of elimination.
 Double Elimination is superior to single elimination system because a
team losing once has another chance to advance to the championship.
 The formula for finding the number games in a single elimination is G= N-1
 The formula for finding the number of games in double elimination is G=2 (N-1)
 Round Robin is a common type of tournament in team sports
