Pickleball Buddies

Pickleball Buddies is built for one problem every pickleball group knows: making the next round feel fair. Instead of guessing matchups on a whiteboard, build your roster, choose your courts, and let Pickleball Buddies generate round-robin games that try to keep the session balanced. The app helps reduce repeat partners, spread bench time fairly, account for player grades, and keep courts competitive as scores come in. Fairness tools for real group play: Avoid repeat partners across the day where possible. Balance courts by player grade so one court is not stacked. Use strict bench fairness so players sit evenly. Give late arrivals a catch-up window to even out games played. Track sun-side exposure by court and spread it more fairly. Support shared roster spots when one RSVP may rotate between players. Track points, wins, points against, points per game, and strength of schedule. Use normalized leaderboard options for fairer comparisons when players face different opponents or play different numbers of games. Pickleball Buddies works for drop-in groups, clubs, leagues, ladders, round robins, and friendly tournament nights. Run today’s session from your iPhone or iPad, enter scores after each match, review the round log, and keep past sessions in History. The first tournament includes up to 3 rounds. Full Access unlocks unlimited tournament rounds, playoffs, and additional tournaments. Less arguing about who plays with whom. Less waiting between rounds. More fair games for everyone.
