Pickleball club software

Pickleball club management software for a club that grew faster than its spreadsheet

Clayside is club management software for UK pickleball clubs. Run a league and a ladder beside your sessions, deal the americano at the desk, raise your league team with one press and keep a register that knows who has paid.

No card, no password · Your first 14 days include the Club plan

The organiser's week

When open play stops being enough for a pickleball club

One organiser does everything

The sign-ups, the payments spreadsheet, the WhatsApp group and the league entry, all on one person's phone.

None of it is written down

A hundred games a month and nobody knows who beat whom, so the improvers never find out where they stand.

"When are we doing a league?"

The keen ones keep asking. Running one on a spreadsheet is the job nobody wants.

One list of players

Everything a growing pickleball club runs, in one system

Begin with a league or a session night. Members, money and the team can follow later, each typed in once.

What you use now

The whole pickleball club on one system

Sessions, leagues, the team and the register together, with your ratings kept where they are.

DUPR

The rating Pickleball England's leagues and events use

Clayside's rating is your club's own, for placing players in a box or on the ladder. Results download as a spreadsheet, one row a match, ready to tidy into a DUPR bulk upload. Want them sent to DUPR automatically? Tell us and we will build it.

One place for all of it

Who is coming, the table and the register, together

Who is playing on Tuesday, the league table, the ladder and who has paid, all on one list of members. A new member is typed in once, and everybody sees the same thing.

Getting started

Up and running before your next session

One evening to set up

Copy your sign-up sheet in and start the first league. A guided run on practice players shows you round, then disappears.

Contact details stay private

No player sees another player's phone or email, juniors included, and only the officers you choose can open the register. Built and run in the UK, held in the EU, and the club's records download whole on any plan.

A real person on hand

Email us as you set the club up and while it grows, and a person replies, for nothing. Want it done for you instead? Managed setup is there if you want it.

It can pay for the Club plan

Let a local business back the league

The sponsor slot is at the top of the league page and under every result picture your players share. On the Club plan it belongs to whoever you sell it to: the paddle shop, a café or a physio. It can pay for the plan, and we take no cut. On the free plan it is ours.

How a club finds a sponsor and what to charge.

Before you start

What pickleball clubs ask first

Does it feed DUPR?

Not yet. The rating here is your club’s own, and results download as a spreadsheet, one row a match, ready to tidy into a DUPR bulk upload. If your club wants them sent to DUPR automatically, tell us and we will build it.

Can we run an americano at our session?

Yes. The app deals the courts and rotates partners each round, and the points go in at the desk.

How does a pickleball ladder league work?

Everyone starts on one list. A new player can take on anyone for their first few matches, then anyone within a few places, and your club can widen that. Every result moves both players, and a rating builds from the first game. Find a game helps players find someone to challenge.

Can it raise our England Pickleball League team?

On a club plan, yes: one press asks who can play, and the captain picks from the yeses. The league’s own results still go where the league asks for them.

We are one section of a bigger club. Does that work?

Yes. Pickleball runs as a league of its own, with its own players and its own table.

Do players need an app or an account?

No. A link on their phone, their name to tap and no password.

Is there a free pickleball bracket generator?

Yes. Type the teams, name the seeds, and it prints a single elimination bracket with the byes in the right places. A free round robin generator sits beside it, for a session where everybody plays everybody. The bracket generator.

Is there free pickleball league software?

Every competition on Clayside is free for ever for a club of up to 300 members, if you join while the offer is open: as many boxes and seasons as you like, 8 club ladders, the championships, club nights, promotion and relegation, and career records. Nothing is held back for a bigger plan. A bigger club moves to the Club plan: £300 a year or £30 a month for up to 800 members. That plan runs your membership, the subs and the court diary too. On the free plan the sponsor line on the league page is ours. On the Club plan it is yours to sell, and it can pay for the year. See what is in each. The case for your committee. How the sponsor line works.
