Pickleball queue app
for open play.

Wait time comes first.

The longest-waiting eligible player leads the next group. The engine prefers their skill level when it can fill a court, then balances the selected teams using skill information and recent pairings.

If that level cannot fill the court, players from other levels can join an Open match. A relaxed skill-rating gap is also marked Open match. Near-equal waits can favor fresh pairings; this mode does not promise equal game counts.

Fewer games comes first.

The engine prioritizes players with fewer completed games across skill levels, then balances the teams. Set an optional games-per-player target to automatically finish a player's rotation when they reach it.

A player who is a game ahead may wait longer. Waiting time, a short rest after playing, and recent pairings also shape selection. A small eligible pool can require a relaxed match; identical game counts are not guaranteed.

Same level. Wait-led rotation.

The engine finds a skill level with enough eligible players, then uses waiting order within that level. Novices play with novices, intermediates with intermediates; levels do not mix automatically.

For doubles, a level needs at least four eligible waiting players. Recent pairings help vary the rotation when there are alternatives. A thin level may wait or repeat partners; another complete level can still play.

Waiting order leads. Latest result shapes the group.

The longest waiter starts the next match. If enough players share their latest win or loss, Korte keeps that court in one result lane and balances the teams by skill.

New players begin without a result. If the oldest player's lane is short, the queue fills an Open match across lanes so the court can keep moving.

One man and one woman per team. Wait-led selection.

Each team has one man and one woman, selected from the oldest complete legal group.

Choose Men or Women for every checked-in player before starting. Gender applies only to this session; personal profiles stay unchanged.

Four men or four women per court. Wait-led rotation.

Each match has four men or four women, selected from the oldest complete legal group.

Four eligible players must form a complete group with compatible partner locks. A thin group waits while another complete group can play.

Winners stay. Challengers rotate in.

The winning team faces new challengers, with an optional win-streak cap to rotate the winners off too.

Switch King on or off for any court during play. Occupied courts change after their current game. All courts share one waiting pool, with separate King challengers and Balanced previews. The mixed court preset is only the starting setup.
