How to Organise a Tournament (1)
Here is the first edition of How to Organise a Tournament, here we will explain step by step how to organise and run your very own tournament, part 1 is about designing your tournament.
(Tournament Handbook)
Part 1
So you want to create a tournament? Well this is where you start! First you have to decide upon the theme and format of your tournament, for a first time organiser we recommend a simple tournament that specialises in a specific map and settings, like a quick 16 player classic tournament, only 16 pm's to send, if you make it 4 player, the winners go into the final that's only 5 games to make and collect the results for, how much easier could it be!
you get to run a simple tournament on fun settings and establish yourself in the world of tournament organising. For the tournament after that, you could mess about with the settings, try 1v1 or create a themed/ bigger tournament, once you have taken your baby steps the possibility's are endless! Notes
