fixture of 21 teams 

number of team = 21

• Total number of matches = n-1 = 21-1 = 20
• Total no of rounds = Nearest power of two of 21 = {tex}(2)^2{/tex}= 4
• Number of teams in upper half{tex} = \frac { N + 1 } { 2 } = \frac { 21 + 1 } { 2 } = 11{/tex}
• Number of teams in lower half{tex}= \frac { N - 1 } { 2 } = \frac { 21 - 1 } { 2 } = 10{/tex}
• Total number of byes = Next power of two - total teams = 32 - 21 = 11 byes
• number of byes in upper half={tex}= \frac { nb - 1 } { 2 } = \frac { 11 - 1 } { 2 } = 5{/tex}
• number of team in lower half = {tex}= \frac { nb -+1 } { 2 } = \frac { 11 +1 } { 2 } = 6{/tex}

total number team in each quarter =
