Ranked is a league tracker for racket sports. Create a club, invite your crew, log matches, and watch your ratings evolve over time. It works for pickleball, padel, tennis, and more.

If someone shared a link with you, tap it to join their club. Otherwise, sign up and create your own club — add players, run a session or log a match, and you're off.

A session is a real-time group play — like a weekly game night. The admin starts a session, logs matches as they happen, and everyone can see standings, matchups, and ratings update in real time. When it's over, everyone gets a recap with highlights.

The randomizer automatically generates court assignments for doubles play. It shuffles players into balanced teams across courts for each round so everyone plays with different partners.

On any upcoming event, tap the share button to send a preview card to your group chat — it shows top players, rivalries, and win streaks to build hype. After an event ends, the Recap tab has a share button that generates a highlights card with standings, MVP, biggest upset, and more. Both work with iMessage, WhatsApp, and any app that supports sharing.

Every player starts at 1500. When you win, your rating goes up. When you lose, it goes down. The amount depends on the strength of your opponent — beating a higher-rated player earns you more points, while losing to a lower-rated player costs you more. Over time, ratings converge to reflect true skill.

New players have a “reliability” percentage shown on their profile. It starts at 0% and reaches 100% after about 20 matches. During this period, a new player's rating moves faster to help them find their true level quickly. Once you hit 100%, your rating stabilizes.

Yes. In a draw, both players' ratings adjust slightly toward each other. The favored player loses a small amount and the underdog gains a small amount.

A session is a single night of play — log matches as they happen and everyone gets a recap when it's done. A league is a structured competition that runs over time: a schedule, standings that build week to week, and (for most formats) a playoff bracket to crown a champion.

Modeled on Major League Pickleball. Each team drafts a squad, then every matchup plays four doubles games — women's, men's, and two mixed. Captains set strategic lineups each matchup, and if it ends 2-2 a DreamBreaker decides it. The playoff bracket auto-cascades to a champion.

The tiebreaker in an MLP-style matchup. If the four games split 2-2, each team sends its four players out in a singles ladder (race to 21, win by 2). The first team to reach the target takes the whole matchup.

When the regular season wraps, generate a single-elimination bracket seeded from the standings. It works for any team count — the top seeds get byes if needed. Log a result and the winner advances automatically, round by round, until a champion is crowned.

Any club admin. Members and co-admins can follow standings, their team, and their matchups, but creating and managing leagues is admin-only. Leagues are free for every club right now.

Yes. You can join as many clubs as you want and switch between them using the club selector in the sidebar or top of the page.

Go to Admin, copy your club's invite link, and share it in your group chat. Anyone who taps the link can sign up and join your club instantly.
