Try the #1 Pickleball Round Robin Tool

You can run a round robin with as few as 4 players. It's flexible enough to accommodate any number above 4, even odd numbers.

For the best experience, we recommend having at least 1 court for every 6 players. Some formats require 4-5 players per court.

No problem! The Pickleheads round robin tool will work even if you have limited court space.

Popcorn and Gauntlet are the most flexible formats. You can run them with any number of players or courts.

Other formats require a certain number of players per court, so you may need to adjust the format or player list in some cases.

No problem! Our tool accommodates both late arrivals and early departures. Before starting the next round, you can mark players as inactive.

If a player is marked as inactive for a round, it'll count against them in the standings.

Our tool is designed to run one round at a time. After each round, you can start another or end the competition.

This approach gives you the flexibility to run unlimited rounds with any number of players and courts. It also allows you to change the player list on the fly, accommodating players who arrive late or leave early.

If you have a varied mix of skill levels, we recommend running a Seeded format like Up & Down the River, Gauntlet, Cream of the Crop or Claim the Throne. These formats optimize for the most competitive matchups.

If you're having trouble deciding on a format, click the "Help me choose" option and we'll recommend a format.

Yes! Set a price and collect payment via credit card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay. Track who’s paid right in the session. We even manage an automatic refund policy for you and charge players when added from the waitlist.

No! When you run a DUPR round robin on Pickleheads, you'll have the option to submit scores to DUPR.

Scores are sent via the DUPR API and automatically verified. No additional action is required from players.

Popcorn, Gauntlet and Scramble formats use win percentage to crown a winner. This is a player's total wins divided by the total number of games. If a player is active for a round, but doesn't draw a matchup, their win percentage isn't affected. However, if a player shows up late or leaves early, they get penalized. If you have an odd number of players, some players may get one less game. Win percentage normalizes this in the standings.

Up & Down the River, Claim the Throne and Cream of the Crop use a point system instead. Every win earns the player points in the standings. Wins on more competitive courts are worth more points. We use win percentage as the primary factor to crown winners.

Both organizers and players can enter scores using the Pickleheads app.

The Pickleheads Round Robin Tool is currently available exclusively in the Pickleheads mobile app.
