Wrestling tournament software
One system runs the whole tournament.
Weigh-ins, brackets, the scoring tables, the crowd displays, and every parent's phone — a score entered at the table updates all of it.
$100 + $1 per entry · online registration, basic app access for your families, and a setup walkthrough included. One entry is one wrestler in one division. Two divisions, two entries.
Made to run yourself
You run the event. We make sure you can.
Creating the event is self-serve and takes a few minutes. Before the doors open we'll walk your format with you, tell you how we'd set it up, and hand you a practice event, so nobody is learning the software during a real bracket.
Before the doors open
- ✓ A free demo event to practice in, so your staff learns it before it counts
- ✓ A walkthrough of your format, mats, and staffing
- ✓ A recommendation on how we'd set your event up
- ✓ Step-by-step help documentation and walkthrough videos
- ✓ Answers when questions come up while you prepare
Your team runs tournament day
- ✓ Confirm attendance, weigh-ins, and scratches
- ✓ Operate the mats and manage the physical floor
- ✓ Enter scores with straightforward table controls
- ✓ Make the on-site decisions only your staff can make
The workflow is designed for wrestling volunteers: clear screens, big scoring controls, visible next steps, and corrections that do not require rebuilding the event.

Running an open event with no fixed weight classes? Snapdown can build the groups from who actually weighs in.See automatic matchmaking →
Mat Control Center
Every mat and its pace, on one screen
See what is wrestling now, who is on deck, and which mat needs attention. Move matches when one mat gets behind and watch the event move without clicking through bracket after bracket. Rest between a wrestler's matches is enforced automatically, so nobody gets called back to a mat two minutes after their last one.
- ✓ Current and upcoming matches across every active mat
- ✓ Live pace, completed matches, and work still ahead
- ✓ Drag-and-drop control when the floor needs to change
- ✓ One shared source for table workers, displays, and the app

For parents and coaches
Families follow their wrestler on their own phone
They follow the wrestler once and get the mat, how many matches until they go, the opponent, the bracket, and the result. Same information that is running your tournament, no second entry, no printout taped to a wall. That access is included at your event, so it costs the family nothing. Live scoring, push notifications, and advanced stats are a$5/mo Snapdown PRO subscription if a parent wants them.
Basics included at your event
No ads and no separate bracket hunt
Useful in the gym or from home
Fewer questions at the head table
“As a director, the event basically ran itself.”
“As a coach, the system tells you exactly how many matches out each wrestler is, making it so simple to know when your wrestlers will be up.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Snapdown run the tournament for us?
On the day, your staff runs the floor. Everything before it we will help with: we will walk your format, tell you how we would set it up, answer questions while you prepare, and give you a practice event to run first. Standard tournaments you create yourself at checkout; duals, tris, and quads we still set up by hand. If your event is unusual, ask us. We run events too.
What tournament formats do you support?
4 to 64-person brackets, round robins, pigtails, pool-to-bracket, and dual meets. The formats wrestling events actually use.
How does bracket generation work?
Define weight classes and assign wrestlers, or let Snapdown create groups by weight. After check-in, set seeds where needed and generate brackets in a few steps.
What happens when a wrestler scratches?
Directors can adjust brackets quickly when no-shows or scratches happen. Update that part of the bracket and keep the event moving.
Can parents follow along remotely?
Yes. Basic access is included at your event, so families can find their wrestler, see the mat, how many matches until they go, the bracket, and the result, whether they are in the gym or at home. Live scoring as the match happens, push notifications, and advanced stats are a Snapdown PRO subscription at $5/mo that the parent buys.
What equipment do we need for scoring?
Snapdown does not require proprietary hardware. We recommend a Chromebook or laptop at each mat with an external monitor facing the crowd. A tablet can work when needed, but a laptop is usually easiest for table workers.
How much does it cost?
A $100 Event Setup Fee plus a $1 Snapdown Platform Fee per active entry. The per-entry fee covers basic app access for every family at your event. No percentage of your registration. Your purchase screen shows any custom organizer rate. Duals, tris, and quads are a flat $50 and we set those up with you. A series or a full season gets a discount off the standard rate; tell us how many events and we will quote it.
What counts as an entry?
One wrestler in one division. A kid entered in two divisions is two entries. Online, manual, imported, external-system, and walk-up entries all use the same $1 rate. Fees collected during Snapdown checkout are not charged again, and anything remaining is invoiced after the event on 14-day terms.
Do you have online registration, and does it cost extra?
Yes. Online registration is included at no additional Snapdown platform charge. Your Event Setup Fee and flat per-entry rate stay the same whether an entry comes through Snapdown, is entered manually, is imported, or is added as a walk-up. Fees collected during Snapdown checkout are not charged again; remaining active entries are invoiced after the event on 14-day terms. Online card payments include a Payment Processing Fee. You can add it at checkout so the registrant pays it separately, or include it within your advertised registration price, in which case it is deducted from your proceeds. The purchase screen shows the full total before payment. Snapdown sends your registration proceeds within 3–5 business days of your event ending.
