Scheduled Play for Pickleball

pickleballcalendar
Do you play pickleball at a set time and location each week? Are you looking to attract more players?

We have just released a new tool that we think will be a game changer. We are calling it "scheduled play".

When logged in, you will now see a new scheduled play icon at the top right of every page:

When you click that icon, you will be taken to the "Scheduled Play" section of your city's overview page.

 Once on your city page, you will see a "Scheduled Play" section that looks something like this:

Basically, scheduled play allows you to organize play sessions at any court near you. Here's how it works:

  • Click the "+ Add" button above the calendar (see image above).
  • Select the court, date and time.
  • Select the playing levels you are looking for.
  • Select the minimum number of players you need to play.
  • Determine who can join. (network members, invites only, connections, etc..)

On the calendar you will see your new scheduled play, with time, playing levels, and number of players (in green):

And that's it! Players can now join your scheduled play. You can also manually add, or even invite other players.

Clicking on one of the scheduled play icons, you will see all the details about the scheduled play: 

You will also be able to see all the players who are going, add your name to the list, or even post comments.

Once the minimum number of players have joined, everyone will get an email letting them know it's on!

This tool is also available on all networks, and on ladders with scheduled play.

Anyway, we are really excited to get players using this tool. We think it will get more people playing pickleball.

As always, feel free to send us any feedback or suggestions.
