  • Directing: Providing leadership, supervision, and motivation to ensure tasks are completed efficiently.
  • Controlling: Monitoring performance, identifying errors and how to implement correct actions to maintain standards.

Formation of Committees

To organise any sporting event, multiple committees can be formed. These committees will be based on the top, medium and lower levels of management. People can be selected for these committees based on the sport’s level and location. The hierarchy of the organising committee is given below:

What is fixtures in sports?

A fixture refers to the structured schedule of matches, which deals with how the tournament players will compete with each other. It also deals with the match pairings, particular data, time and location.

Types of Fixtures in Sports Tournaments

Knock-Out (Bye & Seeding)

A knockout tournament is a type of competition where the teams or players are eliminated after losing a match, and the winning team will continue in the competition. This will continue until a champion is determined.

a. Bye in Knock-Out Tournaments

A bye in knockout means that the team will go to the next round without playing a match; it happens when the total number of teams is not a power of 2 (e.g., 3, 5, 6, 9, etc.). Let’s see one example.

Formula to calculate the number of byes

Number of Byes = 2 x – n
Note: n = total number of teams, x = the smallest power of 2 that is greater than or equal to n.

For example,

Suppose there are 7 teams.
7 is not a power of 2, so we need to find the nearest power of 2 that is greater than or equal to 7.

Number of Byes = 2x – n
= 8 – 7
= 1

So, 1 team gets a bye in the first round.

b. Seeding in Knock-Out Tournaments

Seeding helps to ensure that the stronger teams won’t face each other at the tournament’s opening, which helps to maintain competitiveness and fairness.

League Tournament

A league tournament is also known as a round-robin tournament. A league tournament ensures that every team plays against all other teams at least once. In league tournaments teams earn points based on their performance; the highest scoring team will win the match.

For example,

  • Suppose there are 8 team
  • Every team plays against each other once.
League Tournament formula

For 8 teams:

Common Fixture Methods

  • Cyclic Method – In the Cycle Method, one team stays in a fixed position, and other teams rotate to complete the match cycle.
  • Staircase Method – Matches are arranged step-by-step in a structured sequence; the first team plays against each of the others, followed by the second team, and so on.
