This whole venture started out innocently enough - we were looking for a fun, social tournament format that could involve players of many skill levels. It had to be done at our 3-court facility - in a reasonable amount of time - with a reasonable number of games to determine the winner. We ran the tournament and just kept results manually - which was a ton of work, and left us at the mercy of human error (primarily mine!) Then Susan joined the team and said - "It's just math!" and went on to create this amazing spreadsheet to do all the hard stuff.
Lo-and-behold, someone wanted to buy it!
So we went to work to fine tune and streamline the process, and make it adaptable to the needs of other groups and clubs. We hope our first customers will give us feedback to further improve the system.

Colleen introduced me to pickleball. Since then she has mentored me, teaching me how to play and improve my game.
Creating Pickleball software is a culmination of both my love for the game and all things IT.

l love pickleball and the pickleball community! Susan is not only my IT mentor - she is soon going to be teaching me on the court!
She built this amazing package of spreadsheets to take care of the intensive record keeping that comes with any tournament. It’s been “muggle-tested” by yours truly.
