Rules
How Americano works
This tournament
- Every player partners with every other player exactly once.
- N-1 rounds for N players (8 players → 7 rounds, 12 → 11, and so on).
- Individual scoring: your tally is the sum of your side's score in every match.
- Points per match is fixed — the two team scores always add up to that total.
- Winner: the player with the most total points at the end.
- Points per match: 24 · Target roster size: 4.
How a match is played
- Matches are played to the configured points-per-match (default 24).
- The two team scores in any match always add up to the points-per-match target.
- Padel game scoring (15 / 30 / 40) is optional — most Americano tournaments just count points directly.
Schedule
- Every player partners with every other player exactly once. For N players that's N-1 rounds.
- Pairings are generated automatically at start — no need to set them up by hand.
Standings
- Individual scoring: your tally is the sum of the team scores from every match you played in.
- Winner: the player with the most total points at the end. Ties are broken by wins, then alphabetically by name.
Other formats
Mexicano
- Round 1 pairings are random.
- From round 2 onward, the organizer generates the next round on demand — pairings are seeded from current standings.
- Within every group of 4, the classic pairing is rank 1 + rank 4 vs rank 2 + rank 3 — closest competition every round.
- Individual scoring, same as Americano.
- Winner: the player with the most total points after the final round.
Round Robin
- Players are split into fixed doubles teams at the start (randomized pairings from the seat order).
- Every team plays every other team exactly once — for N/2 teams that's N/2 − 1 rounds.
- Team-based scoring: both partners earn the same points in every match they play together.
- Winner: the team with the highest total points.
- Requires an even number of teams (works with 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 or 24 players).

Groups + Knockout
- Fixed pairs (partners stay together the whole event) — pick from three variants when creating the tournament: 8 pairs (16 players), 10 pairs (20 players), or 12 pairs (24 players).
- Group stage: 8p → 2 groups of 4 (3 rounds); 10p → 2 groups of 5 (5 rounds, 1 pair rests each round); 12p → 3 groups of 4 (5 rounds, two groups play per round, one rests).
- Group standings: Win = 3, Draw = 1, Loss = 0. Tiebreakers: head-to-head, then game difference, then more games won.
- Knockout: 8p / 10p qualify top 2 of each group to the semis + ranks 3-4 to the 5-8 placement bracket; 12p qualifies into 3 brackets (Championship 1-4, Middle 5-8, Lower 9-12).
- Finals: full ranking 1-8 (8p), 1-10 (10p — extra 9th-place match), 1-12 (12p — 5/7/9/11 finals across all 3 brackets).
