The biggest mistake a padel club can make is letting players set their own level. A "3.5" at one club may be a "2.5" at another, and the frustration of losing mismatched games is what stops players from booking with you again.

The science of balance

Our 18-level ELO algorithm removes subjectivity. Just as in chess or competitive video games, the system calculates actual performance after every match by analysing the strength of the opponents and the contribution of your partner.

"A motivated player is a player who books. If the system ensures that 90% of their matches are balanced, their engagement with the game increases by 40%."

This advanced technology compared with competing platforms means you no longer have to step in manually to organise matches. The algorithm moves players up and down fairly, keeping courts full through gamification.
