Padel tools
Two free padel tools that solve the parts a tournament generator does not: working out whether your evening actually fits the courts you have booked, and scoring a single match properly when games and sets matter. Both run in the browser, with no login and nothing to install.
Padel planner
Players + courts + time → rounds, sit-outs and a recommended format.
Use it before you book the courts, when you know the group size but not how long the night will take.
Open the planner
Padel scoreboard
Score a single match point by point, with a big screen for the crowd.
Use it for one match that matters — a final, a challenge, a club championship — where games and sets are counted properly.

Most club nights need none of these — they need the tournament tool, which draws the rounds, rotates the players and keeps the table live for a whole evening. The two tools here are for the questions around it.
The planner answers a question you have before anyone turns up: sixteen players, three courts, two hours — does that fit, how many rounds is it, and who ends up sitting out? It is the arithmetic you would otherwise do on the back of an envelope while the hall booking is still open.
The scoreboard is the opposite end. It scores one match, ball by ball, with real games, sets and tie-breaks, and it knows golden point and star point. A social evening does not need that — a final does. You can put it on a screen so the people watching can follow along.
Not sure which format the evening should be at all? The rules page explains how scoring works, and the guides walk through each format.
How do the padel tools fit together?
Each tool answers one question, at a different point in the evening:
| Your question | When | Use |
|---|---|---|
| Do 16 players on three courts fit in two hours? | Before you book | Padel planner |
| Who plays whom tonight, and who is winning? | During the evening | Tournament generator |
| What is the score in the final? | The match that matters | Padel scoreboard |
| What happens at 40–40? | Any time | Padel rules |
All of them are free, run in the browser and need no login. The tournament generator, the planner and the scoreboard work in English, Norwegian, Spanish, Danish and Swedish. The scoreboard keeps the match on your own device until you choose to put it on a big screen.
The padel tools also work together. When the planner has found a format, the courts and the points per match, one tap opens the generator with all three filled in. When the evening ends with a final, the scoreboard counts it point by point, with golden point or star point, while the rest of the group watches on the screen in the hall.
