Run open play in the time it takes to call “ball on.”
Every other system makes you do the coordinating. PaddleStacks keeps the queue honest, then gets out of the way.
Smart matchups
Balance partners, spot repeat foursomes, and shuffle or swap players before you fill the next court.
QR player check-in
New and returning players join in seconds. Volunteers help without learning a complex system.
Leaderboards & history
Session standings and match history keep everyone aligned — no debates about who won or who’s up next.
