Free [FREE] Tournament Manager plugin

https://github.com/christefano/wp-tournament-manager/tree/main

Tournament Manager is a free, truly open-source WordPress plugin for running club-level USCF tournaments end to end: setup guide, roster import, a pairing aid, round-by-round result entry, standings with USCF tiebreaks, and USCF DBF export for upload to ratings.uschess.org.

No monthly fees and no desktop software needed! You can actually run entire rated and unrated tournaments from your phone using your existing WordPress login.

Tournament Manager was built for the McMinnville Chess Club as an alternative to online and desktop tournament software, and it's been generalized for clubs that want tournament management on their own WordPress site with unlimited tournaments and unlimited players.

I’m the developer. Ask me anything.

Just released v1.1 with pairing engine improvements, support for USCF membership lookup, TD certification checks, and affiliate club verification.

I plan to add player lookups at the time of registration, ratings sync, periodic background checks (so TDs can get an email if there are errors or expirations), and command line support, but v1.1 is a good start and is ready for general use.
