Pickleball tournament software

Men's, women's and mixed doubles. Round robin, knockout and point-by-point scoring at the court.

Organisers create a tournament for free, split groups and schedule matches over the courts. Referees tap the half of the court that won the rally on their phone, and spectators follow the score point by point from one link.

Events like a real pickleball tournament. Singles, doubles, mixed.

Each event has its own entry list and bracket, so men's, women's and mixed doubles in every age group run side by side in one tournament.

Singles, doubles and teams
Set men's, women's or mixed for each event. Doubles pairs are built from the players already in the tournament.
From round robin to knockout
Round robin in one or several groups so everyone plays several matches, then single or double elimination (out after two losses). Swiss is there too.
Age and rating limits
Set an age or rating limit for each event. Players register through one link and the organiser approves them.

Draws and scheduling. By session, by court.

Brackets are seeded, and the schedule is laid out over the tournament's courts session by session. Each step flags what is missing before you publish.

Seeding
Seed the field so the top two teams land in opposite halves of the bracket, and draw the rest.
Automatic scheduling
SportX places matches on the courts across the tournament's sessions. The organiser adjusts single matches when needed.
Enough rest
The schedule keeps a rest gap between two matches of the same person and flags matches that clash.

A pickleball scoring app at the court. Played to your rules.

The referee opens the match on a phone and taps the half of the court that won the rally. SportX keeps the score, the serve, time-outs and side switches by the rules the organiser set.

An account for one day
The organiser creates a username and password for each referee, valid for one tournament and one match day. No app to install.
Side-out or rally scoring
By default one game to 11, win by 2, points only on serve, two time-outs per team per game. The organiser can switch to rally scoring, change the points per game, or play best of 3, 5 or 7 for an event or a single round.
Signed off
When the match ends, both sides sign on the screen, the result locks and the winner moves on to the next round.

Frequently asked questions

Does it cost anything to run a pickleball tournament on SportX?

No. Creating and running a tournament on SportX is free today, referee scoring included. You only need to sign in with an Impetus ID account.

Can SportX make a pickleball round robin schedule?

Yes. In a tournament, each event can play a round robin in one or several groups, then a single or double elimination knockout. If you only need a quick round robin schedule, use the free round robin generator, no sign-up needed.

How does pickleball scoring on the phone work?

The referee opens the assigned match and taps the half of the court that won the rally. SportX keeps the score, the serve and side switches. By default a game goes to 11, win by 2, with points only on serve; the organiser can switch to rally scoring and change the points per game and the number of games for an event or a single round.

Where can spectators follow live scores?

On the tournament page, opened from one link shared in Zalo, Facebook or any chat, with no account. The score of a match in progress updates point by point; the brackets and standings update when the match ends.

How do I start a pickleball tournament?

Sign in, choose Create tournament, give it a name, pick pickleball and a start date. Then add events, players, brackets, the schedule and referees step by step, and share the link.
