One platform for everyone on court

Organisers run it. Players live it. The booth broadcasts it.

A single source of truth that stays in sync in real time — the control panel, the phone in a player's hand and the scene on the big screen are never out of step.

For organisers

Run the whole event from one screen

Set up divisions, seed the field and let PickleBoard build the draw and the schedule — then score live across every court with role-based operator access.

  • Automated brackets & pools — single/double elimination, round robin, pool → knockout
  • Smart scheduler that spreads matches across courts and days
  • Live scoring from any device, with role-based operator access
  • Roster, seeding & DUPR-aware divisions — run several events at once
