A 24-team double elimination bracket is one of the most complex standard tournament formats to manage in Excel. Unlike a 16 or 32-team bracket, it involves an unequal distribution of byes and a fluid "crossover" point where teams move from the Winner’s Bracket to the Loser’s Bracket. Excel is an excellent tool for tracking this, but building it requires rigorous logic to avoid "ghost matches" and scheduling conflicts. LOSER'S BRACKET LB R1 LB R2 LB R3
