What you run

The difference

Built for live game days, not corporate software demos.

Setup & configuration

Legacy software

Hours spent fighting clunky software settings and venue rules.

BracketRunner

100% done-for-you. Send us your raw team list; we build the entire event by hand.

Dead gym Wi-Fi

Legacy software

Scores freeze, bracket updates stall out, directors panic.

BracketRunner

Built-in offline sync. Scorekeepers keep entering scores; the system auto-syncs on reconnect.

Parent mobile view

Legacy software

Crammed with pop-up ads, banners, and subscription paywalls.

BracketRunner

Pure courtside broadcast. Ad-free live scores on any phone — no account required.

Event flexibility

Legacy software

Rigid bracket templates that struggle with odd team counts.

BracketRunner

Any event engine: showcases, round robins, pool-to-bracket, and custom game guarantees.

How it works

You hand it over. We do the rest.

No settings to learn, no templates to wrestle into shape. The whole point is that you don't touch the software unless you want to.

“If something breaks at 8am on a Saturday, you get a person — not a ticket number.”

— the two of us who build these

01

You send us what you have.

Rosters, divisions, venues, court availability, game guarantees. A spreadsheet, an email, a photo of a legal pad — we're genuinely not fussy about the format.

02

We build and check it by hand.

Divisions, seeding, pools, brackets, court assignments, and rest between games. We verify the math ourselves, then walk you through it. Nothing goes public until you say it's right.

03

You share one link.

Coaches and families follow along live. You keep full control all weekend — fix a score, override a matchup, move a game — and we stay reachable while it runs.

A complete event engine

Not a bracket calculator.

01

Every format a real weekend throws at you.

Showcases, round robins, pool play into bracket, single and double elimination — including the odd team counts that break other tools — plus multi-venue events and custom game guarantees.

02

Courts, times, and rest — solved before you arrive.

We lay every game across your courts and hours, respect the rest a team needs between games, and keep bracket rounds in the right order. If it genuinely won't fit, we tell you what to change instead of quietly running past closing time.

Scores survive a dead gym Wi-Fi.

When the signal drops mid-game, scores keep saving on the device and sync themselves the moment it comes back — in the order they were entered.

gym Wi-Fi is always bad. always.

Checked by a person before anyone sees it.

Every event is built and verified by hand. You get a walkthrough before it goes public, and someone reachable while it runs.

Zero ad clutter.

Nothing sits between a parent and their kid's game. No banners, no interstitials, no sponsored rows wedged between the schedule and the score.

A link, not a login.

Families open a URL and see the schedule. No account, no app, no password reset on a Saturday morning.

Pricing depends on size and sport, so the honest answer is: tell us what you're running and we'll give you a real number.
