From spreadsheet to live brackets in 3 minutes

· 6 min read

The reason most organisers stay on a spreadsheet isn't that they love spreadsheets. It's that rebuilding a template feels faster than learning a new tool. The next match-day is five days away, and every hour spent switching is an hour not spent organising.

The switch doesn't take an hour. For a typical 8 to 16 participant tournament, moving from a spreadsheet to a live, shareable bracket in Score7 takes about three minutes — less time than it would take to fix the broken VLOOKUP you've been avoiding.
