SetMatcher
What SetMatcher does

The desk keeps working when the clubhouse wifi does not.

Set up your courts with opening hours and closed days, plan the whole day across every draw at once, and print an order of play with real times. At the desk, one screen shows who is on court, who is late and by how many minutes.

Free to sign up, and ready for all seven racket sports.

Courts, a planned day, and a desk that keeps going without wifi.

How it works

Each court has a sport, a surface, weekly opening hours and dates it is closed. SetMatcher plans matches onto your courts across every draw you run that day, so two events on the same Saturday never book the same court. You can always move a match by hand at the desk.

A match is never given away automatically. Each sport sets how long to wait for a player who has not turned up, and after that wait you may record a walkover. A player can dispute an absence for four weeks afterwards, and nothing changes until you have looked at it.

Good to know

Nobody is in two places, and nobody plays sooner than their sport allows.

Three rules always apply: one match per court at a time, one match per player at a time, and enough rest between two matches on the same day. The rest time comes from each sport’s rules: five minutes for table tennis, ten for pickleball, half an hour for tennis, an hour for padel and badminton, and six hours for squash. You can shorten it, but not below the minimum the sport allows, and a match you move by hand is checked against the same rules.

Where you find it
  • Desk
  • Order of play
  • Courts
  • Check-in
  • Print sheets
When a match runs late, only the matches still to come are moved: nothing already played, started or placed by hand, and no time on a printed sheet moves earlier. If the connection drops at the desk, every action is saved on the device and sent in order once you are back online, and it is counted only once. The desk screen refreshes every twenty seconds.
