Singles and doubles use different entries
A singles entry represents one player; a doubles entry represents a pair. Select the appropriate mode and add the members. Keep different levels or age groups in separate categories so that schedules and results remain clear.
Use groups to offer several matches
With 12 players in four groups of three, everyone plays twice before any qualification. A straight knockout draw needs fewer matches but does not guarantee that playing time. Pick the compromise that suits a club social, training event or competition.
Allow for delays and unavailable courts
Enter the courts available on each day. Keep spare capacity for outdoor closures or matches that run longer than expected. Slots are planning estimates: recording tennis sets does not make a match a fixed-duration event.
Record the correct scoring format
Use the tennis profile and its set and tie-break fields. Check results before advancing the draw. Record a walkover or retirement as the appropriate match decision rather than inventing sets that were not played.
A worked example
12 players and three courts
Four groups of three. Each group winner advances to the semi-finals.
| Group stage | 4 × 3 = 12 matches |
|---|---|
| Semi-finals and final | 3 matches |
| Total | 15 matches |
Each player has two group matches. Reserve separate slots for the semi-finals and final, including rest for the qualifiers.
Step by step in TournoiFacile
Choose the sport and entrants
Select your sport when creating a tournament. Name the competition and enter the categories and numbers of entrants. You can add final names later. Open the custom format if your event needs a different structure.
Prepare the matches
Choose the groups and what follows them. Add the pitches, courts or tables you can actually use, together with the playing days and available times. Allow for breaks and changeovers.
Check the schedule
Generate the programme, then check rest times and each category’s start times. Manual placement also lets you work by round, phase or category. Review estimated times before publishing.
Record and share results
Enter results using the scoring screen for your sport. Share the public link so that participants and spectators can find fixtures, scores and standings on their phones.
Practical questions
Can I run doubles?
Yes. Select doubles and enter two players per entry.
Does the software make my event officially sanctioned?
No. Using TournoiFacile does not replace approval procedures or the applicable governing body’s rules.
These guides describe the workflows available in TournoiFacile. The figures are planning examples, not guaranteed running times. For a sanctioned competition, check the rules and requirements with your governing body.
