Pickelball tournament software for running match play tournaments in the cloud offers clubs, societies and friends an easy to use online draw.
The pickelball match play draws are usually played in pairs as a doubles competition, or can be done as singles. Events can be set up online as an unseeded or a seeded draw.
Depending on your needs, match play tournaments can run over a day, weekend, week or season and there two tournament formats to choose from:
Knockout is the classic tournament format that sees winners of each tie advance and losers eliminated. The Match Play World software enables results to be entered, match reports to be posted, users to contact each other to arrange their ties or details of the court and time to be entered.
If required a Plate or Consolation event can be created with first round losers, which then operates in the same way as a knockout event.
The unique Matrix match play format ensures that every player plays every round but that the winner is still the last person left undefeated. This is a great format for ensuring that players retain interest in a season long event, or get value for money for a one day event.
Everyone plays someone with the same win record that they have, so players find their level more quickly and have more enjoyable games.
Matches can be played over a defined number of points or games with either scoring option counting to the final result in a Matrix tournament.
Whichever is chosen as the scoring unit, is added together from each match to create the Score Difference for each player. Players are then ranked first by wins and then by Score Difference.
