An alternative to Tournify

Tournify plans tournaments for teams you add, import or sign up online. Draftastic starts a step earlier: everyone joins on their phone, the teams are made in the room, then they play on the TV.

Common questions

Can I bring teams I already have into Draftastic?
Yes. Paste the names, or upload a spreadsheet. Then put each person in their team with Hand-pick, or let people pick their own team with Choose.
Can players enter their own scores in Draftastic?
Yes. In Setup, switch on Players report scores. Both teams must agree, and you check any they don’t.
How many people and teams can Draftastic take?
A draft takes up to 500 people, in up to 100 teams. A knockout takes up to 100 teams, or 64 with a second chance, and a league up to 20. You can also run a cup over several nights.
