Settings

Session name

Game format (applies to all courts)

Skill Levels

Off by default — everyone plays Open Play together. Turn on to assign Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, etc. to players and courts.

Matching style

Choose how players rotate and how the queue forms matches.

Number of courts

2

Set each court's name and skill level here — the level shown on the court card is display-only.

Sound on call-up

Enable Target Games

Automatically tracks games played and prioritizes players with fewer games until everyone reaches the target.

Target games per player

Avoid Repeating Teammates

When forming doubles teams, tries to pair players who haven't been teammates yet. Repeats only happen if there's no valid alternative.

Fixed duo (optional)

Lock two players as permanent teammates whenever they're both in the same match — they'll never be split up, even to avoid a repeat pairing.

Enable Scoring

Adds a live scoreboard to each in-progress court — serve tracking, point steppers, and side-outs — and carries the score straight into End Game.

Winning score

Auto-start Ready Courts

If an open court has enough players and nobody taps Start Game within the time below, it starts automatically. Turn off to always start courts manually.

Auto-start after (minutes)

Known players 0

Remove a name here to stop it appearing in quick-add suggestions and in "keep player names" — it won't touch anyone currently on the floor.

About this app

How to operate the site

Add players — tap Add Player to type or paste names in, or Check In to bring in players who pre-registered.
Watch the queue — the Players panel shows everyone waiting, grouped into the next matchups in order.
Start a game — once a court has enough players lined up, tap the court to start the match.
End a game — tap the court again, enter the score (optional), pick the winner, and confirm to send everyone back to the queue.
Winners / Losers blocks — when that mode is on, winners and losers are held separately and queued back up once a full group is ready — use Queue now to release a group early.
Rankings & history — check the 🏆 and 🕓 icons up top for standings and a full match log.

Hosting live

Sign in — tap the ☁️ cloud icon and log in or create a free account (needed to host; watching never requires one).
Go live — tap Go live to broadcast your current courts and queue. You'll get a short invite code, a shareable link, and a QR code — share any of the three.
Spectator view — anyone who opens the link or scans the QR sees a live, read‑only view of the courts, "Up next," and the accumulating winners/losers blocks, refreshing every few seconds. If scoring is on, they see the current score too — as a read‑only number, not tappable controls. No account or app needed on their end.
Notify me — spectators can tap the bell in their banner to get a browser notification when a game ends or the next matchup changes.
Daily limit — each account can go live a limited number of times per day (shown in the panel); the count resets daily.
Stop / resume — tap Stop hosting to end the broadcast at any time; you can resume on the exact same code and link afterward, or start fresh.
Watch someone else — got a code from another host? Paste it into the same ☁️ panel's "Match code" field and tap Watch to follow their session live.

What's in Settings

Session name — the title shown at the top of the app and on the share/spectator link.
Game format — Doubles (4 players) or Singles (2 players) per court, applied across all courts at once.
Matching style — choose Balanced, Skill Separated, or Winners/Losers to control how the queue forms matches.
Number of courts — add or remove courts, and set each court's name and display skill level.
Sound on call‑up — plays a chime when a court is ready to start.
Target Games — auto-tracks games played per player and prioritizes whoever has played the fewest, until everyone hits the target you set.
Avoid Repeating Teammates — tries not to pair the same two players together twice in a row; you can also lock a Fixed duo that always plays together.
Enable Scoring — adds a live scoreboard (serve tracking, point steppers, side‑outs) to each in‑progress court, feeding straight into End Game.
Auto‑start Ready Courts — if a court has enough players and nobody taps Start within 2 minutes, it starts itself. Turn off to always start manually.
Known players — manage saved names used for quick‑add suggestions; removing one here doesn't affect anyone currently checked in.
Backup — export or import the full session as a JSON file.
Session controls — end the session (keeps all records), start a new session (keeps player names), or erase everything.

Player icons on a court

Swap — tap one player's swap icon, then tap another's, to trade their court spots (fixes a wrong pairing or just remixes the teams). Works before or during a match. Tap the same icon again to cancel. Disabled for players locked into a Fixed duo.
Substitute — tap a player's sub icon to bring in a replacement from the queue when someone has to step away. The game continues on the same court with the same score/timer, and the player subbed out goes to the back of the queue.
