60 Team Single Elimination Bracket

In a 60-team single elimination tournament, teams compete in a bracket-style format where one loss eliminates a team from the tournament. The tournament continues until there is one team remaining, which is declared the champion.

In this tournament bracket, teams are assigned seeds (from 1 to 60) based on their ranking or random draw. The seeding system is designed to:

• Reward higher-ranked teams with theoretically easier early-round matchups
• Ensure the strongest teams don't meet until later in the tournament
• Create balanced brackets where the #1 and #2 seeds can only meet in the finals

The tournament progresses through several rounds:

• First Round: All teams play their initial games according to the seeding matchups
• Quarter-Finals: Winners from the first round advance (in larger brackets)
• Semi-Finals: Winners from the quarter-finals compete
• Finals: The championship game determines the tournament winner

• Time Management: Plan game durations carefully, including potential extra innings
• Clear Communication: Ensure all teams know their seed and next game time
• Weather Planning: Have contingency plans for weather delays
• Tiebreaker Rules: Establish clear tiebreaker rules before the tournament begins
• Field Management: Coordinate field assignments and maintenance between games

• Time Limits: Often implemented to keep the tournament on schedule
• Run Rules: Mercy rules to end heavily one-sided games early
• Extra Innings: Special rules for extra innings (e.g., starting with runner on second)
• Roster Rules: Requirements for minimum/maximum players and substitutions
