How it works

From the front door to the court in three steps

  1. 1

    Players check in

    They scan your QR poster (or you add them at the desk). They’re in the queue, and their phone shows their place and wait.

  2. 2

    CourtFlow builds the games

    When a court frees up, the next fair group is ready: longest wait first, fewest games played, skill levels if you use them. Staff can always step in.

  3. 3

    Phones buzz, courts fill

    Players get “your court is ready” on their phone and the TV board updates. No shouting names across the hall.

Features

Everything a busy open-play session needs

01

Fair rotation, automatically

CourtFlow builds every game from who has waited longest and played least, with optional skill levels. Turn on auto-start and the next group goes on the moment a game is finished. Winners-stay, substitutes, late arrivals and players on a break are all handled.

02

QR check-in

Players scan the poster at the door and join the queue from their own phone. Staff can approve check-ins, or add walk-ups in one tap.

03

Live TV board

Put the board on any TV or tablet: who’s on each court, who’s up next and how long the wait is. It updates on its own.

04

“Your court is ready” alerts

Players get a notification on their phone when it’s their turn, even with the screen locked, so nobody misses a game.

05

Online booking

Players rent whole courts or reserve a spot in open play from your page. Sessions fill to capacity, then take a waitlist that moves up by itself.

06

Drop-in fees

Each check-in records what the player owes. See who’s paid, who hasn’t, and what was collected by cash, card or transfer.

07

Your own branded page

Every venue gets its own address, logo and colours, with live court status, upcoming sessions and one-tap check-in.

08

Team roles & reports

Invite staff and managers with the right access. Daily reports, wait-time trends, a full event log and CSV exports.

FAQ

Questions venues ask us

Do players need to download an app?

No. Everything runs in the phone’s browser: they scan a QR code or open your venue’s link. They can add it to their home screen if they like.

What equipment do we need?

Just what you have. Staff run sessions from a phone, tablet or laptop, and the live board works on any TV with a browser or a cheap streaming stick.

Does CourtFlow take payments?

Not card payments. Players pay at the desk as usual. CourtFlow records who owes what and who has paid, so nothing slips through.

How long does setup take?

Minutes. We create your venue and send you an invite. You set your courts and play style, print your QR poster and you’re ready for the next session.

Can we use it for leagues, clinics or private groups?

Yes. Book or lock courts on the schedule, and run private groups (“pods”) on their own courts while open play carries on around them.

Is our data kept separate?

Yes. Each venue has its own address, team and player list, and nobody at another venue can see them. Everything is backed up nightly.
