PickledBalls

A session manager for the pickleball instructor standing in the middle of organized chaos — a roster that keeps changing, players who show up late, and courts to keep balanced while the timer ticks.

What it does

Court scheduling that actually works

Tap Schedule and the app instantly generates balanced round-robin assignments. A Whist-based optimizer tracks every court visit and partnership across rounds, so nobody gets stuck with the same partner twice and every court stays equally loaded — random, seeded, or snake-draft by rating.

Start a game in under 30 seconds

Quick Game lets you pick players from your roster, set courts and rounds, and start scheduling on the spot. Pick up right where you left off if you close the app mid-session.

Your whole week in one view

Today's sessions split into Leagues & Classes, Open Play, and Lessons. Browse with arrows or pinch out to a full-week time-grid calendar. Each session type has its own smart behavior.

Pair Rules — set once, enforced everywhere

Mark two players as Never Partners, Always Partners, or Never Same Court. The scheduler honors every rule automatically in every session it generates. No manual adjustment needed.

Roster management built for the court

One roster, used everywhere. Add players mid-session, auto-fill open slots with a rating-matched slice of your roster in one tap, and import/export as CSV to share or back up.

Run the session from your phone

Expand any round to preview matchups, swap players with one tap, keep per-round notes, and use the built-in timer with one-minute warnings. Everything survives closing and reopening the app.
