Fuller courts, fewer ghost bookings.
Make Courting your club’s booking platform. Completely free for verified clubs, and the social nights run themselves.
The end of the ghost booking
With Courting, a booking that isn’t filling releases back to members ahead of time. The court goes back to the club, the waiting list for that slot hears the moment it frees, and Cleverly Matched can turn the empty court into a game.
Court 5 just opened up on Saturday.

Club night runs itself
You know the scene. One volunteer runs the board all evening and barely plays. Or it’s numbers from a hat, so whoever you draw is whoever you get.
The quiet cost is the strong players. Stuck playing down for set after set with no rotation, socials stop being fun for them, so they drift off and play privately, and the club loses the level and energy they bring.
With Courting, Matchmaking runs the night so it is fair and fun across every level. Court time is shared, pairings vary, and when a good match of stronger players is on, they get a proper set too, so they keep turning up.
And the volunteer finally gets a game.
One member can start it
There’s no committee vote, no purchase, and no migration project to begin. Any member can start on their own: run their own bookings, even their own social sessions, while the club still books on whatever it uses today.
So your members may well get there first, and the club gets to see it work in practice. When it’s ready to make Courting official, a committee member claims the club from whoever started it. Verification is a conversation, not a contract.
Free for clubs. Actually free.
Courting is free for the club and free for its members. Everything a club needs to run, managed sessions and filling bookings, is in the free tier. No per-member fee, no card on file.
There are optional premium features for members who want more, but they are never a requirement, and Courting carries no ads. A premium experience funded by the members who choose it, not by the club and not by advertising.
Here to play, not to run the place?
The players page shows Courting the way your members will see it: the queue, Courting Call, and games that find them when they’re free.
Common questions
- How do you run a club tennis social without the group-chat chase?
- Courting manages the session end to end: members check themselves in, the app composes fair doubles each rotation, and the queue keeps turning over so nobody is left standing at the fence. The committee runs the night instead of refereeing a spreadsheet.
- Is Courting really free for clubs?
- Yes. Clubs use Courting for free, including running sessions, managing members and taking bookings. It works best when your club makes it the official booking partner, and members get value from the app even before that happens.
- How does Courting fill a booking that is short of players?
- A doubles booking without four confirmed players releases the court before the slot rather than sitting as a ghost booking, and the freed time gets offered to members who are free so it fills again instead of going to waste.
- Can members use Courting before our club moves its bookings across?
- Yes. Bookings your members make elsewhere can still be managed in Courting, and they can organise their own games through it, so there is value from day one while the club decides to adopt it fully.
