Run the tournament.
Not the paperwork.

Register for free, create a new tournament, choose the format (group stage, knockout or league), add teams and generate the schedule automatically. The whole process takes under 5 minutes.

Yes — you can organize as many tournaments as you want for free. The Free plan includes up to 8 teams per tournament. For larger tournaments and Pro features like Custom Format, predictions game or online registration, there's the Pro plan for a small one-time fee — one-time per tournament, no subscription.

anstoss supports four formats: group stage with knockout round, pure league system (Round Robin), pure knockout mode and the Custom Format. With Custom Format (Pro) you can combine as many phases as you like — ideal for Champions League style, World Cup style or other multi-stage tournament structures. All formats are managed automatically — schedule, tables and knockout bracket are calculated in real time.

The Custom Format is a Pro feature that lets you freely combine any number of phases — e.g. Group Stage → Intermediate Round → Knockout Stage, just like the Champions League or World Cup. Each phase has its own schedule and table. You configure the phases and qualification rules in the "Tournament Phases" tab of your tournament.

Yes — anstoss is built for exactly this. Whether it's 4 teams at a casual kick-about or 64 teams at the club championship, anstoss adapts to your event.

anstoss is available worldwide. The app runs in English and German — more languages are planned. Whether you're in Europe, North America or anywhere else, anstoss works for your tournament.

After adding all teams, click "Generate schedule". anstoss automatically calculates all matchups, distributes the games across available fields and plans the kickoff times. You can adjust the order afterwards using drag & drop.
