A bracket that auto-balances no matter how many teams
Single-elimination tournament brackets are the workhorse of office pools, school athletics, league finals, and backyard cornhole championships. The catch is that 4, 8, 16, and 32 teams produce completely different bracket geometry — most printable PDFs only handle one size and ask you to white-out half the lines.
This generator builds the centered "final-in-the-middle" layout for any of the four standard sizes: 4 teams (Final Four), 8 teams (Quarter-finals start), 16 teams (Round of 16), 32 teams(Round of 32). The number of rounds and slots auto-scales, columns are sized to the page width, and round labels ("Quarterfinals", "Semifinals", "Final") print across the top.
Pre-fill team names in the textarea (one per line) and they appear above the round-1 slots — useful if you're seeding a real tournament. Leave it blank for a clipboard bracket you'll fill in by hand. For larger brackets, switch to A3 or Legal paper.
