Run the tournament. Skip the spreadsheets.

TournaMahj is tournament scoring software for American mahjong directors. It handles seating, round-by-round scoring, and live standings, so you can spend tournament day hosting instead of hunched over a calculator and collecting paper scorecards.

No app to install. No accounts for your players. It runs in the browser on any phone.

Built for Tournament Day

How does it work?

  • Set up your tournament. A guided setup walks you through players, tables, and rounds in about ten minutes. Import your player list from a spreadsheet or paste it in.

  • Players check in by QR code. Print tent cards with a QR code for each table. Players scan, tap their table, and they're in. Their phones show only what they need: their table, their round, score entry.

  • Scores go live. East enters the scores after each game. Standings update instantly, and anyone can check them from their phone between rounds. When the last round ends, your winners are already calculated.
