Uit de beschrijving van een wedstrijd waarbij mountainbikers hun filmpjes kunnen insturen:

Formatted as a bracket challenge, the Showdown will put bikers from the USA in a head-to-head competition versus the rest of the world.

Following the submission period, XXX will host a public vote from July 24th to July 26th decide which videos make it to the bracket challenge round.

Van hardop denken (zie discussion entry) komen antwoorden. Bij deze dus :-) Volgens mij is het dus vergelijkbaar met wat wij hier een poule noemen.

bracket challenge


Explanation:

A double-elimination tournament is broken into two sets of brackets, the Winners Bracket and Losers Bracket (W and L Brackets for short; also sometimes Upper Bracket and Lower Bracket, respectively). After the first round, the winners proceed into the W Bracket and the losers proceed into the L Bracket. The W Bracket is conducted in the same manner as a single-elimination tournament, except of course that the losers of each round "drop down" into the L Bracket.
Wordt in NL ook als term gebruikt (zie google)
