CNET uses Inkscape for NCAA tournament brackets
"Inkscape is an easy program to use; the only big problem I encountered involved aligning copied brackets."
"Inkscape is a vector graphics editor, which means that images and objects can scale easily, so team names and brackets can be resized as you like. The SVG file is included in a downloadable ZIP file on the template product page. Inkscape also exports PDF files, so I created a printable version of the bracket if you want a down-and-dirty printout for brainstorming upset picks or tracking winners. The PDF file is also included in the downloadable ZIP."

As a general principle, I always work with 'snap to grid' switched on and have a grid size of 1mm.
Anything I think I might want to copy I enclose in, and group with a rectangle of *exactly* the grid size with a line width of 0.1mm, no line colour and no fill colour - an invisible rectangle in other words.
Alignment becomes easy :)
