A SOCIAL TAKE ON SPORT TOURNAMENTS AND LEAGUES

Sport events take a lot of effort to set up and run, while also imposing fixed schedules which constrain players. TrueSport solves this problem for both organizers and participants by taking a more social approach to running tournaments and leagues. You simply grab nearby players, play matches, register the game outcomes, and get placed on a leaderboard. Players can turn up at any time, choose their partners and opponents, play both singles and doubles, and still win the event. This is all only possible with our smart ranking system.

RANKING SYSTEM

Our skill rating algorithm automatically computes player rankings from match results. After each match, the information from the outcome is propagated through to all players, and their skills are correctly updated. This produces much more accurate skill estimates than in other popular systems, such as Elo and Glicko, which only update the skills of the participants in a given match. It's the reliable rankings that enable the aforementioned novel type of CYPO tournaments ("Choose Your Partner and Opponent"). By the way, we can generate a player rating for any head-to-head sport, but we’re starting with table tennis, table football, tennis, and pool.

DISCOVER VENUES AND PLAYERS

When registering results, players select a place on a map where the match was played. This allows TrueSport to generate a separate leaderboard for each venue - your local playground, office building, or professional sports club. You can then browse the map to discover sport venues. You can also explore their leaderboards to find partners at your level.
