Clubs & Organizers
Everything you need to know before managing your club and organizing events
Do I need to be managing a club on the app to run a league or a tournament?
Not at all. Any organizer can create and manage a league or tournament directly through the app — no club affiliation required. Whether you’re running a local competition or a casual league with friends, you’re good to go.
Can I create bookings that repeat automatically every week?
Yes. Recurring bookings can follow a repeating pattern once it’s configured, which reduces manual re-entry for staff and lowers the risk of double bookings during busy periods.
Can trainers/coaches maintain their own availability?
Yes. Coaches can manage their schedules and lesson-style slots directly in the dashboard so bookings stay aligned with courts—without constant back-and-forth with club management.
Is there a subscription or fee required for clubs to manage bookings and reservations on the platform?
No subscription needed — managing your club and handling reservations on Padel Playground is completely free. The only cost is a 1% booking fee applied to each court booking made through the app.
How do Open Matches drive bookings at my courts?
When players create or join open matches, they’re shown nearby available courts — giving your facility direct exposure to active players in the area who can book your courts instantly through the app.When players create or join open matches, they’re shown nearby available courts — giving your facility direct exposure to active players in the area who can book your courts instantly through the app.
How do court bookings and scheduling work for a venue?
You operate from a centralized calendar covering daily bookings, recurring reservations, lesson slots, closures, or blocks—so your team sees the same live picture instead of juggling separate tools or shared calendars.
What can I monitor on the venue dashboard?
The dashboard gives you a real-time snapshot of bookings, active events, and revenue, alongside analytics on court utilization, peak hours, and income trends — so you can spot issues early and make smarter decisions around pricing, staffing, and promotions.
