Your group
Create a padel doubles group with rotating or fixed partners. An owner can confirm conversion of an existing group while preserving members and match history.
Keep membership, guests, managers, RSVP and messaging together.
Scoring that fits padel
Enter complete results set by set. Choose standard best-of-three with 6-game sets and a 7-point tiebreak, short sets, a single set or custom rules.
Choose Advantage, Golden Point or Star Point, with an optional deciding match tiebreak. Rules can be overridden per match or per session.
Session formats
Americano prioritizes fair appearances and rest, minimizes repeated partners and opponents, and balances team ratings across available courts.
Mexicano groups players by match wins, set differential, game differential and initial rating, then balances partners within each quartet.
King of the Court promotes winners and relegates losers between courts while rotating partners.
Beat the Box cycles three partner combinations within each box. After three rounds, box leaders move up and last-place players move down; rest and attendance changes can alter box membership.
All four templates generate one round at a time from completed history. Fixed-partner round robin also works with padel scoring.
Run the night
Manage active, waitlisted, withdrawn and no-show attendance, including late arrivals. Substitutes replace departing players only in uncompleted matches.
Resume a session with its saved rules, template, rounds, results and attendance.
Standings and ratings
Session standings rank by match wins, then set differential, then game differential, with games for and games against (GF/GA).
Follow basic ratings and a session recap with finishing streaks and partner records. Partner records appear after at least two matches together.
Mini tournaments
Run mini tournaments for padel doubles groups. Rotating doubles use 8 or 16 players in one or two pools of 8; mixed doubles need balanced genders. Fixed pairs use round-robin pools of at least three pairs.
Advance to seeded knockout with byes. Choose rules at setup; they lock after schedule generation. Managers and participating players enter complete sets, and set wins decide matches.
Pool standings rank by match wins, set differential, game differential, then games for. Resume saved tournaments and review summaries with games for and against.
