Create a match schedule for your football tournament

No two football tournaments are the same. Mijntoernooi.info offers more than 70 ready-made tournament formats that automatically generate a schedule matching your field of teams.

  • Small football tournaments — One compact group in which all teams play each other once.
  • Multiple groups & progression — Teams start in the group stage and automatically progress to follow-up groups or the knockout stage based on the standings.
  • Play out every place — Organize placement finals for spots 3/4, 5/6 and 7/8, so every team keeps playing until the final minute.
  • Large tournaments — Manage dozens of teams across multiple match days and age categories.
  • Multiple age categories — Set up your own format for every category (e.g. U9 through to Seniors) within one central tournament event, with fields either shared or used exclusively.

Subsequent phases (e.g. the round of 16) are calculated automatically as soon as the preceding phase is complete.
