Pickleta
For pickleball open play

Nobody should have to ask “who’s next?”

One QR code checks the whole group in. After that the rotation runs itself — fair turns, live scores on every phone, and nobody keeping a list. No clipboard, no arguing, no accounts to make.

8 open plays running right now — or, running the session? start a free open play.

How a session runs

Three steps, then it looks after itself

From setting up to the last game played, the organiser only really does the first step.

  1. 01

    Set up the session

    Name it, say how many courts you have, pick doubles or singles and a target score. Takes about twenty seconds.

  2. 02

    Everyone scans one code

    Show the QR code once. Each player types their name, picks a rating, and lands in the queue. No app, no sign-up.

  3. 03

    Play — it fills the courts

    As a court frees up, the next players go on automatically. Anyone courtside can tap the score in from whatever device they have — a phone, a tablet at the desk, a laptop by the net.

What it handles

The fiddly parts, done properly

The things that cause arguments courtside are the things it is strictest about.

Equal turns, not favourites

The queue sorts by games played and time waiting — never by rating. The person who has sat longest goes on next.

Teams that stay interesting

Of the three ways to split four players, it picks the one that avoids repeat partners and keeps the two sides evenly rated.

One code gets everyone in

Scan the QR or type six characters. Players never make an account, so a group of twenty is checked in before the first warm-up.

Standings that can’t drift

Every result is worked out from the game log, so two phones finishing at once can never leave someone’s record wrong. Undo is one tap.

For court owners

Own a court? We’re building listings for venues.

Pickleta runs the open play. The next piece is the court itself — so players can find your venue, see when it is free, and turn up. It is not built yet. Tell us you are interested and we will come to you first when it is.

One email, when listings open. Nothing else, and no date promised — we would rather tell you late than tell you wrong.

Get started
