With the Block Diagram template, you can use tree shapes to represent hierarchies, such as family trees or tournament plans.

On the File menu, point to New, point to General, and then click Block Diagram.
From theBlocks and Blocks Raised stencils, drag block shapes onto the drawing page to represent stages in a tree structure.
To add text to a shape, select the shape, and then type.
Indicate relationships between the blocks by connecting the shapes:
1. Drag a shape from a stencil onto the drawing page and position it near another shape.
2. While still holding down the mouse button, move the pointer over one of the blue triangles. The triangle turns dark blue.
3. Release the mouse button. The shape is placed on the drawing page, and a connector is added and glued to both shapes.
  Tip To reverse the direction of the arrow on a connector, on the Shape menu, point to Operations, and then click Reverse Ends.
Use tree shapes to represent hierarchical stages in a tree diagram:
1. From Blocks, drag a tree shape onto the drawing page. If you want two branches, use a Double-tree shape. If you want two or more branches, use a Multi-tree shape.
2. Drag the endpoints on the tree shapes to connection points on block shapes. The endpoints turn red when they are glued (glue: A property of shapes that causes them to stay connected even when one of the shapes is moved. When you attach a connector to a shape, you glue the connector.).
3. Drag the control handles on the tree shapes to create more branches or to change the branch length or position.
  Drag the control handle on the trunk to the right to create more branches.
  Drag the control handle at the end of a branch horizontally or vertically to change its position.
