A whole championship, committee meeting to honours board.

Fourteen draws, one volunteer, and a long middle stretch where nobody has to run anything. Here is how each part of it actually goes.

Create your first tournament

Setting it up

An evening in February

Before: A spreadsheet per event, a WhatsApp group per event, and a bracket you redraw by hand every time somebody pulls out.
Now: One guided setup. Pick your events from 45+ draw categories including veterans and juniors, set the match formats, and put your club's badge on it.

Step 2 of 7 of the setup wizard, asking what the tournament is called, with a tournament name and a club or venue name filled in — Step two of seven. Seven short questions, and you can skip ahead to review them all.

Entries open

Six weeks out

Before: Emails to the club address, a cheque behind the bar, and a surname nobody can read.
Now: Members pick their own events and pay by card. Doubles pairs link themselves. Every entry lands in one list you can sort, move between draws, or withdraw.

Six entries in one event, each a card with the player's photo and name — The entry list for one event, filled in by the members themselves.

Draw day

The Sunday before

Before: A pencil, a rubber, and an argument about who got the easy half.
Now: Auto-generate the draw in one click - the whole bracket, seeded in tiers. Drag a name if you disagree, set the seeds you want, and publish it when you are happy.

Round 1 of a generated bracket: Oscar Young (1) against Benjamin Evans (18), Frederick Clark (16) against Adam Playle (5), with the round dated 11/10/2025 — Round 1 of a generated draw. The numbers in brackets are the seeds.

While it runs

Three weeks, or five months - however long yours takes

Nothing. This is the part you get back. Players arrange their own matches and submit their own scores, the other player confirms, and the draw moves on by itself. You appear when they disagree, and not before.

A finished match in the draw - Adam Playle 6-3, 6-3 over James Dean, the winner ticked — One match, settled between the two players. Nobody asked you.

When it goes wrong

Twice a season, realistically

Before: Thirty messages, two versions of the third set, and you deciding it in the car park.
Now: A disputed score arrives as one decision, with both submissions side by side. Deadlines chase themselves - approaching and passed.

A disputed match showing both submitted scores side by side - the original 2-6, 2-6 from one player against the proposed 6-4, 6-4 from the other - with the reason given underneath — Both submissions, side by side, with the reason. One decision to make.

Finals day

The last Saturday

Before: A laminated bracket on the clubhouse door that was right on Tuesday.
Now: Scheduling the finals takes minutes: set your courts and your hours, drop each match into a slot, and clashes are flagged before you publish. Members get a championship-style schedule of the day - courts, times and who is on next - on one page anybody can open. First-round losers have their own plate draw, so more of them are still playing.

The finals day scheduler: a list of unscheduled matches beside a grid of courts and quarter-hour slots, with finals dropped into place — Courts across, time down. Drag a match into a slot and it is scheduled.

Afterwards

And every season after

Before: A folder on somebody's old laptop.
Now: Results, standings and the honours board live at clubchamps.io/your-club, open to anyone, with no login.

The honours board on a club's public microsite, listing the year, the champion and the final score, with a tab for each event — The honours board on your club's public page. One tab per event, one row per season.
