A tournament where a team once defeated automatically gets eliminated from the tournament and only the wining team continues. The defeated team is not given a second opportunity. 

Method of Preparing Fixtures in Knock-out Tournament 

• Total Number of matches= N-1 ( N is the No. of Teams) 

• Divide the Number of teams into two halves 

• If the number of teams is not exact power of 2 (4, 8, 16, 32, 64 and so on) and is an odd number 

Upper half = (N+1)/2

Lower half= (N-1)/2 

Byes are given in the first round Number of byes = 2x - N (where 2x > N) 

Number of rounds = x

• If  N is an even number

Upper half= Lower half= N/2  

Number of byes = 2x - N (where 2x > N) 

Number of rounds = x 

Method of Fixing Byes 

1. First bye is given to the last team of lower half 

2. Second bye is given to the first team of upper half 

3. Third bye is given to the first team of lower half 

4. Fourth bye is given to the last team of upper half 

5. And so on
