The engine behind it

What the app decides for you

  • Fair rests

    With more players than spots, everyone sits out equally often.

  • Varied partners

    In Americano your partner changes from round to round.

  • Balanced matches

    Pairs are chosen to keep scores close.

  • Court rotation

    Players move between courts instead of staying on one all night.

  • Seeding by ranking

    You can seed the tournament from players' PGR levels.

  • Ends on time

    Duration estimates and the round timer keep the night on schedule.

How it works

From setup to champion

  1. Add the players

    Friends from your contacts or guests by name only. Choose the format, the score and the courts.

  2. Play the rounds

    The app generates the schedule. Scores can come from organizers, operators, players or a personal no-account link.

  3. Live standings

    Per-player or per-team standings update on every score and stay live in the app and on the web.

  4. Share the results

    At the end, a podium and a results card ready for Instagram or WhatsApp, plus a public link.

Tournaments are for fun, not the official ranking

Tournaments don't affect your competitive rating in the app, so play relaxed. Want matches that count toward the ranking? Those are separate.

About the competitive ranking

FAQ

Tournaments, briefly

All questions
What tournament types can I run?

Individual or fixed-team Americano and Mexicano, plus King of the Court. Team Americano can include a championship finale, while individual Americano and Mexicano can end with a Top 4 or Top 8 final.

How are matches and standings generated?

Automatically. Americano writes the full schedule at the start; Mexicano and King of the Court generate rounds dynamically. Standings update on every score, and Americano/Mexicano rank by points won, point difference, then wins.

Can I invite players without an account?

Yes. You can add guests or invite players who have accounts, and anyone who does not get a spot joins the reserves list and is promoted automatically when a spot opens up.

What about players who arrive late?

In individual Mexicano you can add late players on the fly; they enter from the next round without affecting completed play. Fixed-team formats and King of the Court do not accept adding a single player after the start.

Is there a shot clock or time limit?

Yes, optionally: the timer starts automatically with round one and resets for every new round, synced across your phone, the players' phones and TV mode. It supports preset or custom intervals and an end alarm; the organizer can stop or restart it.

Do tournaments affect the competitive ranking?

No. Tournaments are social and fully separate from the competitive ranking, so you can have fun without pressure on your rating.
