How a Saturday runs
An eight-team club afternoon, from the car park to the standings. The organiser does the first three things; the app does the rest as the day happens.
- 09:40
Set the day up
Courts, divisions, teams and how long a round runs. Once, on the way there.
- 10:00
Generate the draw
A round robin across every division, filling every court, with the byes shared out rather than landing on the same pair twice.
- 10:05
Start the clock
It appears on every phone watching the tournament, and on the Lock Screen of the iPhones. Pause it for rain and it pauses for everybody.
- 10:35
Scores land as courts finish
Whoever is nearest types the result. Everyone else sees it, and the people still playing get told when their round is nearly up.
- 13:20
The standings are already done
Games won and lost, by team and by club, kept current all afternoon — so the last match finishing is the end of the day, not the start of the admin.
If you are running it
You hold the draw, the clock and the scores. Nobody else can change them — players and spectators see exactly what you see, and can only look.
If you are playing
Type the code on the sheet. Your court, your opponents and the time left in the round, without making an account or handing over an email address.
