The live event engine for pickleball
Live court displays, automated matchmaking, real-time scoring, and rich recaps. Plug into any league night, tournament, or facility event.
Run a better night
From the moment players arrive to the recap the next morning — ShowCourt runs the entire live event, hands-free.
Your courts on the wall
Mount a tablet or connect a TV and ShowCourt becomes the scoreboard, the bracket, and the announcer. Players tap in their own scores at the kiosk or on their phones — staff run the night from a single admin page instead of juggling clipboards.
- Kiosk display with round timer, courts, and live scores
- Score input on the kiosk or on a player's phone
- Automated matchmaking — ladder and round-robin formats supported
- Real-time sync across kiosk, admin, and player mobile devices
What players see from the sidelines
Players know their starting court, partners, and opponents days before the night. Once it's underway, they get live scores and a preview of the next round the moment both courts submit — so they can grab water, stretch, or get to court without missing a beat.
- Starting assignments sent days before the night
- Next-round preview the moment both courts submit
- Live scores, leaderboard, and rating change as it happens
Built for the person running the event
The live experience is the same — what you care about isn't.
The roster is yours
Run an invite-only community where the right players get the spot. Manage RSVPs and waitlists, control who can sign up, and let the data show who plays well together — across a season, not just a night.
Event pages with RSVP and waitlist
Invite windows, guest lists, and real-time waitlist positioning all in one place.
Invite-only by design
Gatekeep your community so only members you've approved can RSVP. No randoms, no overflow.
Partner chemistry scores
See who plays well together over time — and who's just been lucky. Pairings backed by real history.
A member directory you own
Your roster is yours. Never cross-marketed to other communities.
Your logo. Your colors. Your members.
Your staff isn't a tournament director. ShowCourt is. Start the event and walk away — matchmaking, court assignments, scoring, and the on-court screens all run themselves. Rounds advance the second every court submits.
Hands-free admin during the event
One live page shows every court, every score, every round. Staff run the night from a tablet.
Your facility, your brand
Logo, colors, and voice across the member app, kiosk, and event pages. Members remember your club — not ours.
Recaps that fill next week's event
Every player sees their results, rating change, and leaderboard placement before they leave.
No special hardware
Any iPad or Android tablet runs the kiosk. Players use their own phones.
Public tournament hosting
Public registration, pool play, bracket advancement, live scoring, and full results — all on ShowCourt. Built for directors who want a modern home for their event.
- Public event pages with open registration
- Pool play and bracket advancement
- Live scoring across every court at once
- Full tournament results and player recaps
The stuff that brings players back.
Every night leaves a trail — stats, stories, and head-to-heads that make your members want to show up next week.
Event Recaps
Every player gets their own court journey graph showing how the night played out — plus a strength-of-schedule leaderboard and a view of how everyone else's night went.
Matchup Insights
Rivals and partners with head-to-head stats, win-rate-together, and your story across a season.
Club Rating System
An OpenSkill-derived rating that responds to outcomes. Gatekeep skill-level nights and track progress over a season.
Player Profiles
Every game, partner, and rival a player has — saved across a season. A full picture of their pickleball life.
“I didn't think a pickleball app could feel this polished. The live experience is effortless, the graphics actually look good, and the recaps are the most fun part of the whole night.”
Answers up front
What does it cost?
We're in early access — we'll talk pricing when you apply.
Do we need to replace our booking system?
No. ShowCourt handles the live event experience — the night itself. Your existing booking and registration system stays exactly where it is.
Do players need to download an app?
No. ShowCourt runs in the browser. Players can add it to their home screen for one-tap access, but there's nothing to install.
Do we need special hardware?
A tablet for the live kiosk — any iPad or Android works. Players use their own phones. Everything else runs in a browser.
Who owns our member data?
You do. Your roster is yours. We don't cross-market to your members, and if you ever decide to move on, we'll work with you on a transition.
Run a better night on ShowCourt
