Multistage bracket, set number of pools
Our multistage bracket comes in several different variations. This is the set number of pools option.
Set number of pools will allow the organizer to set a predefined number of pools that the athletes will be divided into. The organizer can also define how many athletes that should advance to the elimination stage and fight for the medals. Learn more about the different bracket settings for the qualifier and elimination stage here.
For example, in a group with 8 athletes and the number of pools are set to 3, Smoothcomp would build two groups with three athletes and one group with two.
