A bowl is the term traditionally used in the football world for a postseason game between specially invited teams. But it has now expanded to cover all manner of events and programs, from academic bowls, to quiz bowls, and bowls for sports other than football (we even have a Schedule Template for a tonga bowl).
If this describes anything you’re up to, take a look at these free templates for useful options on how to format and structure your bowl schedules.

How Do I Schedule Bowls?
Bowl schedules, especially for college sports, have to be issued early on in the year. This will give the players enough time to prepare for the off-season. How do you go about scheduling this early on? The first step is to know your matchups. If you are not also the coach of the school team(s), you will need to work closely with whoever that is.
The events themselves may be only a day long, but the preparation stage is a long-term process that requires a lot of skillful oversight.
Some things to keep in mind when drafting your bowl schedule:
- Clearly indicate the academic year for the schedule.
- Check your event names and their designated dates. If there is any unforeseen complication with the matchup team, you should be able to make last-minute amendments.
- Be sure to note venues, and immediately update your schedule if a shift in location is decided.
- If matchup teams are involved, a table format is recommended to match each team against its rival (see Printable Scholar Bowl Schedule).
- You may have to draft a separate schedule per event day, especially if the bowl involves a detailed program (see Printable Tonga Bowl Schedule).
Many bowl schedules will not only pinpoint game days but also the days for practice meets. This is especially crucial for sports, and so you will find this is usually a part of a good Basketball Schedule Template.
