The Best Pickleball App for Players of All Skill Levels

Pickleball has quickly become one of the most popular sports worldwide, with millions of players discovering this exciting sport. But while the sport is simple to learn and fun to play, finding courts, partners, events, and ways to improve your game isn’t always as easy as picking up a paddle. 

This is why PicklePlay is a game-changing app for so many pickleball players of all ages and skill levels. But, it’s not just for finding courts, it’s an all in one solution for pickleball enthusiasts! We may be a little bias, but with 140,000+ users, we’re not the only ones that think PicklePlay is the best pickleball app. Here’s why we believe PicklePlay is the best pickleball app on the market and a must-have for any pickleball enthusiast.

Did we mention it’s FREE?

We do have a premium membership for those that want more features but the basic app for most features is completely free! Find local courts, players and events in your area, schedule games, manage clubs, and connect with fellow pickleball enthusiasts all with the Free download of PicklePlay.

Find Courts Anywhere

One of the biggest challenges for players is finding courts, especially when traveling or in new locations. PicklePlay has created a comprehensive, GPS-based court locator that allows you to find the nearest pickleball courts in seconds. With an extensive database of courts worldwide, PicklePlay works to provide players reliable, up-to-date information on where to play. Court details, user reviews, and court images let you know what to expect before you arrive, saving you time and hassle. 

Courts are popping up very quickly though as the sport grows so it is hard to keep up with the rapid growth. That’s why we have an option for players to also add a court if there’s a court we missed.

Connect with Other Players

Whether you’re looking for a new doubles partner, organizing a friendly match, or even setting up a local tournament, PicklePlay makes it easy to connect with other pickleball lovers. The app’s community-driven platform helps players of similar skill levels find each other, arrange games, and build friendships on and off the court. Plus, you can even filter by skill level (with the Pro membership) ensuring you find the perfect match every time.

Find local events and tournaments in your area

Search within the PicklePlay app on the events tab to see upcoming events and tournaments in your area. Events also have a filter to search by event type and dates to find an event that fits your schedule.

Manage your Club or Group

Whether you have a large club with hundreds of members or a small group of 8 friends, PicklePlay makes managing your club or group a breeze. Ditch the long, confusing text threads and GroupMe chats, long email threads, and social media pages that can get outdated with new posts quickly. Easily communicate with your club and make announcements to all players. The Group Chat "Feed" tab also allows for posts, announcements, alerts, and for sharing upcoming events.

Get exclusive content 

Pickleball is a rapidly evolving sport. Our PicklePlay team works hard to share tips and tutorials to improve your game, our top paddle picks, must have items, pickleball camps, and more. PicklePlay’s marketing team works to curate content our viewers want to see.

Organize Tournaments

PicklePlay makes organizing and joining tournaments a breeze. Whether it’s a casual local game or a larger competition, the app allows you to create a round robin tournament tailored to your specific needs. Tournament organizers looking to run up to 20 team events can manage registration, communicate with participants, and even track results, making it easier than ever to participate or manage pickleball tournaments.

Social Integration

Pickleball is as much about community as it is about competition, and PicklePlay is designed with this in mind. We strive to bring the thrill of Pickleball to an even larger audience. To help achieve this, we have selected and continue to grow our PicklePlay Ambassador team. PicklePlay Ambassadors are club leaders or influencers in their community that want to help grow the sport, and enhance local play. As a PicklePlay Ambassador, they also get the inside scoop on upcoming app features and are able to provide feedback to our team. This also helps us continue to enhance the great resource PicklePlay has become.

User-Friendly Interface and Accessibility

One thing that sets PicklePlay apart from other sports apps is its intuitive, user-friendly design. The app is easy to navigate, even for less tech-savvy players. It also works across devices, meaning you can access your pickleball world from your phone, tablet, or computer, ensuring convenience whenever you need it.

Continuous Updates

The PicklePlay team is always working on roll out new features, updates, and performance enhancements based on the evolving needs of the pickleball community.

Why PicklePlay Stands Out

PicklePlay brings together everything a pickleball player could need in one well-designed app. From helping you find courts and connect with players to providing tracking tools and club features.
