What is actually free in wrestling tournament software

What is free for coaches, parents, and wrestlers?

• Registering for tournaments and paying the host's entry fee.
• Live brackets, the bout board for every mat, live scores, and results.

• Notifications: weigh in complete, bracketed, bracket started, mat assigned, results posted, tournament status changes, payment received, and host broadcasts.
• Coach dashboard with up to five associated wrestlers, and unlimited roster wrestlers during team and dual events.

What is free for hosts?

Everything, when the tournament has no entry fee. A free entry club scramble, an in house round robin, a practice room ladder run as a tournament: no hosting fee at any size. You still get registration, weigh ins, bracket generation in every format, mat queues, live scoring with an audit trail, scoreboards on any screen, bout boards, notifications, and awards.

Why not make everything free?

Because a tournament platform has real costs on tournament morning: the servers that push every score to every phone, the payment infrastructure, and support when a host cannot publish at 10 pm on Friday. Charging hosts one predictable fee on paid events and keeping every family account free is how we keep the software the families use from being sold to them. The pricing page has every number.
