Procedure to Draw Fixture Knockout

Step 1. Divide the total no teams into two half if total no teams are more than 16 divided than also in the quarter.

Step 2. Check if total no of the team are in power of two i.e. (2,4,8,16,32,64........) or not.

Step 3. If total no of teams is not in power of two then byes will be given.

Step 4. Calculate the byes & place them according to the formula.

Step 5. Arrange the match. It should be remembered that match can be arranged between the teams in the same round.

Step 6. It should be remembered that if the total no teams are more than 16 the byes of the upper half will be placed separately my lower half will be separate.

Step 7. In case of seeding or special seeding, we calculate the byes of the deducting total no seeding from the total no. of teams.

A formula to calculate Fixtures Knock-Out (Bye And Seeding) And League (Staircase And Cyclic)

1. Total no matches = total no of team 1
2. To calculate total no of rounds multiply 2 with 2 continuously (2*2*2*....) unit the multiplication value reaches equal to or more than the total no. of teams than calculate the repetition of digit 2 multiplication which will be equal to total no rounds.
3. Total no byes = next power of total no of team.
4. If total no teams are even. 2,4,6,8 team in upper.
   Half = Total number of Team2Team of lower half = Total number of Team2Total number of teams are odd (1,3,5,7,9...) thenTeam in upper half = Total number of Team + 12Team in Lower half =Total number of Team - 12
5. If total no byes are even (2,4,6,8)
   Then byes in upper half = Total no byes2Bye in lower half = Total no Byes2If total number of bye are odd (i.e. 1,3,5..) thenBye in upper half = Total no Bye - 12Byes in lower half =Total no Byes -12
6. When divide the total no of the team in the quarter then divide the total no. of the team my 4 & follow the given table.

   If R = 3

   If R = 4

    

7. Formula no - 7 placement of bye:-
   1st bye will be given to last team of lower half 1,2,3,4
   2nd bye will be given no. 1st team of upper half 5,6,7,8
   3rd bye will be given to 1st team of lower half 9,10,11,12
   4th bye will be given to last team of upper half 13, 14
   5th bye comes besides bye no. 1
   6th bye besides bye no. 2
   7th besides bye no. 3
   8th bye near to bye no. 4 then 9 the bye near to bye no. 5 soon

   Seeding placement will follow the same sequence of bye.
