Template:8TeamBracket-Compact-NoSeeds-Byes/doc

This template generates a generic 8-team tournament bracket. It is designed to minimize the use of vertical space. It also allows the use of a third-place playoff; to display the third-place match, the parameter "RD3b" must be non-blank.

Despite its name, this bracket does give the option of having seeds. Seeds can be generated on a team-by-team basis; if you want a box for a seed, use the  parameter and put something in it (a blank box can be generated with  ). If you omit the parameter or leave it blank, the box will not appear.

Usage
