What To Look For In An Easy Tournament Alternative

Football Only, Nothing Generic

No multi-sport template to configure. Goals, assists, yellow and red cards, suspensions, substitutions, lineups and formations work out of the box, for 11-a-side, 7-a-side, 5-a-side and futsal.

Unlimited Teams, Free

The free plan is not sized by how big your tournament is. One competition as organizer, unlimited teams, no cap on players per team, every format, live scores, standings and statistics included.

Live Scores From The Referee

Instead of typing results in afterwards, referees join with a code and record goals, cards and substitutions from their phone. Standings, top scorers and public pages update minute by minute.

Round Robin, Groups And Knockouts, Scheduled Automatically

Add your teams, pick a format and 4league generates the whole schedule: Berger-table round-robin leagues, group stages that feed playoffs, or a straight knockout bracket. Standings, top scorers and card tables keep themselves up to date after every result.

  • League schedules generated automatically, with venues and kick-off times
  • Group stage with automatic qualification into knockout playoffs
  • Knockout bracket maker with automatic advancement and penalty shootouts
  • Age and level divisions as separate competitions under one organization, with promotion and relegation on PRO

  • Referee live scoring with a match timer, goals, cards and substitutions
  • Result and standings posters ready to share on social media
  • Player of the round voting and player rankings across the whole competition

When Easy Tournament May Still Fit Better

If you run multi-sport events, esports championships, or school games where one tournament mixes football with volleyball and basketball, Easy Tournament's multi-sport, web-and-app approach may suit you better. 4league is the stronger fit when the sport is football: live scoring from the pitch, unlimited teams on the free plan, and players, teams and organizations that carry on from one tournament to the next.
