For organisers and arbiters
Everything a tournament needs, nothing it doesn't
From the first pairing to the final crosstable, in your browser.
Swiss & round robin
Dutch-style Swiss pairings with score groups, colour balance and no rematches. Berger tables for single or double round robin.
FIDE tie-breaks
Buchholz, Buchholz Cut 1, Sonneborn-Berger, direct encounter, wins, Koya, progressive and ARO, with the FIDE 2024 rules for byes, forfeits and absences.
Live public pages
Players, pairings, standings and crosstable on one link. Round pages refresh themselves while results come in.
Built for phones
Parents, players and arbiters check the boards from the hall. Every page fits a small screen.
Print & PDF
Clean A4 sheets for the notice board: player list, pairings, standings and crosstable, in any script.
Safe by default
Each organiser sees only their own events. National IDs are never shown publicly. Every form is protected.
How it works
From sign-up sheet to final standings
-
01
Create the event
Name, dates, system, rounds and tie-breaks. Defaults follow common practice, so most events need no changes.
-
02
Add players
Type them in or paste a list from a spreadsheet. Ratings set the starting order automatically.
-
03
Pair, enter, publish
Pair each round in one click, check it, publish it and enter results. Standings update on their own.
Is JomChess Tournament Manager free to use?
Yes, during the beta. Paid plans will come later, with advance notice; nothing is charged automatically, and events you have already run stay online. The first 30 organisers who join by 31 December 2026 become Founding Organisers: every feature JomChess Tournament Manager has on that date stays free for them for life.
How do I get an organiser account?
Fill in the account request form and tell us about your event. We set up the account and send you the login details.
Are the pairings FIDE-endorsed?
No. The Swiss engine follows the Dutch system closely and suits non-rated events, but it is not an endorsed FIDE pairing program, so do not use it for FIDE-rated tournaments.
How many players can an event have?
Up to 300 players and 20 rounds. It works best for 30 to 150 players and 5 to 11 rounds, and even a 300-player round is paired in under a tenth of a second. For 10 players or fewer, choose round robin.
Can players see results without an account?
Yes. Every public event has its own link. Anyone can open it to see pairings, results and standings, no sign-up needed.
