Built for tournament sponsors

The whole event in one platform

Spreadsheets break on tournament day. Paper brackets fall behind. A parent asks who their kid plays next and nobody knows. Rosterra Tournaments puts every part of the event — registration, brackets, judging, payments, spectator view — on one platform that doesn't forget where it left off.

  • No software your judges need to install
  • No checks to deposit at the bank Monday morning
  • No re-typing the bracket when someone DQs
  • No frantic group texts during finals

Divisions & brackets

Every format your event needs

Generate brackets in seconds. Kata uses panel scoring. Kumite uses single elimination or round-robin pools. Mixed event? Run them side by side — every division gets the right format.

  • Panel scoring for kata, forms, and weapons forms
  • Single elimination for kumite and point fighting
  • Round robin for small pools with head-to-head tiebreakers
  • Random, by-rank, or school-separated seeding strategies
  • Printable brackets for the wall

How it works

From signup to results in four steps

Most organizers go from account to published tournament inside an hour. The platform handles the rest of the day.

01

Create the tournament

Set the date, location, and fees. Add divisions for kata, kumite, and weapons with age and rank brackets.

02

Share the registration link

Publish and post. Competitors register and pay. Stripe deposits funds directly in your bank account.

03

Set up rings and judges

Add rings and invite judges by email. Each gets a unique link to their assigned ring.

04

Run the day

Judges record results on their tablets. Spectators watch the live page. You manage from one dashboard.

Common questions

The things every organizer asks first

How much does it cost?

Three percent of each registration, charged at checkout as a Stripe Connect platform fee. No monthly subscription, no setup fee, no funds-on-hold. If you're a Rosterra CRM customer running your own tournament, the fee drops to zero — it's included in your subscription.

Do my judges need to download an app?

No. Each judge gets a magic-link URL via email. They tap it on their phone or tablet and start scoring — no install, no account creation, no app store review. The link expires a week after the event.

Which formats do you support?

Panel scoring for kata, forms, and weapons forms (multiple judges score 0–10, ranked by average). Single elimination and round-robin for kumite and point fighting. Double elimination is on the roadmap.

How do payments work?

We use Stripe Connect Standard. You connect your own Stripe account, payments land directly in your bank on Stripe's normal payout schedule. We never hold funds. Refunds (organizer-initiated or competitor self-cancel) flow through the same account.

What about waivers?

You write the waiver text once per tournament. The registration form shows it in full and requires the registrant to type their name to accept. Acceptance is timestamped on the competitor record.

Can spectators see live results?

Yes. Every tournament gets a public live page showing each ring's current match, last result, and the next up. Share the link in your event programs — families follow along from the bleachers without crowding the scoring table.

Run a better tournament

No card to start. Your first tournament can be live by the end of the day. We only charge when a registration comes through.
