ATP Pickleball Club runs on Meetup today, and it's clunky: slow sign-ups, no reminders, and a three-person queue to pay at the door. This app fixes all of that — and turns a booking tool into a real community.

The old flow worked, but it pushed all the effort onto players and volunteers.
😣 The Meetup way
🎾 The ATP app way
Find a game
Browse sessions, filter by level/type/day, or just ask in plain English.
Book & pay
One tap. Member $10 / non-member $12, charged instantly — no cash at the door.
Get reminded
We nudge you 24h and 2h before. No more forgotten games.
Check in
Tap to check in at the courts (or a host does it). Attendance is automatic.
Play & connect
See who's going, bring friends, meet your level.
Climb the ladder
Comp results feed the DUPR ladder, stats and badges.
Smart booking
Sticky filters that remember you, plus cards that clearly show Open, Almost full, Full, Booked, Waitlisted or Offer — with the right button every time.
Payments, sorted
Pay when you book. Cancel in time for an automatic full refund; no-shows simply forfeit. The club never reconciles a spreadsheet again.
Membership
Join or renew in the app to unlock the $10 member rate. Membership is always known, so there's no ID check at the courts.
Fair waitlists
Full session? Join the waitlist. When a spot opens you get a timed offer; miss it and you drop to the back — never lose your place unfairly.
Easy check-in
Check yourself in by location at the courts, scan in, or let a host mark you present. Attendance just happens.
Friends & privacy
Add friends, see when they're playing, and spot "3 friends going". A privacy shield lets you stay off attendee lists whenever you want.
Community
An activity feed, club announcements, per-session chat and player profiles — pickleball is social, and the app leans into it.
Never miss a game
Reminders, waitlist offers, receipts and membership alerts — in-app and by email, with per-type controls.
Your calendar
Add any booking to your phone's calendar in one tap.
The app learns from what you play and gently points you to sessions you'll love — like a friendly club regular who always knows what's on.
“Hey Scott, an opening came up Sunday night you usually love — book here.”
Recommended for you. Each night the assistant reviews your history, your bookings and what's coming up, and writes you one personal pick — only ever a session you can actually book.
“Social game near The Ponds this weekend for my level.”
Just ask. Search in plain English and the assistant turns it into the right filters instantly.
📧 Your week, every week
Weekly digest. A short email with your upcoming games plus an opening you'd enjoy.
🤝 Players like you
Friend suggestions. People you've played alongside or who match your level — because pickleball friendships are the point.
Hosts get AI help too — auto-drafting session descriptions in a click.
For players
Pay once, at booking. $10 members / $12 non-members. Cancel before the cutoff for a full automatic refund. Every receipt is in your profile.
For the club
No cash handling, no door collector, no post-session reconciliation — attendance and payment are matched automatically. The admin dashboard shows live revenue and check-ins.
Membership revenue
Members buy and renew in-app, with expiry reminders — a steady, visible income stream for the club instead of a manual list.
In this demo, payments are simulated — no real money moves — but every charge, refund and receipt is recorded exactly as it would be in production.
🧑🏫
Run your sessions without the clipboard: a live roster, one-tap check-ins, give a waitlister a spot, message everyone booked, and record competition results that feed the ladder.
🛠️
Manage weekly sessions and one-off events, members and memberships, see the payment ledger and revenue at a glance, and broadcast announcements to the whole club.
One-click logins for every role, and a guided tour, are on the demo page.
