How It Works
Teams are divided into pools of equal size. Each team plays every team in their pool (round robin). Top finishers from each pool advance to a single elimination bracket. Pool play ensures teams play multiple games before elimination.
Step-by-Step Guide

Configure the pool + bracket format
