A bit of healthy competition never hurt anyone. Tap Leagues runs leagues, ladders, tournaments, americano leagues and social meets for any head-to-head sport. Squash, tennis, badminton, padel, pickleball, table tennis, darts, pool, snooker, bowls, foosball and more. Built for clubs, groups of friends, schools and workplaces, and free for players and clubs. Everything you can do on the web, you can do in the app. There's no cut-down version, so you can run your club from the sofa or settle a score courtside and it all stays in sync. BOX LEAGUES THAT RUN THEMSELVES Split everyone into divisions and we lay out a round-robin grid for every box. Players enter their own scores, opponents approve with a tap, and the table recalculates the instant a result lands. Run in cycles with automatic promotion and relegation, plus bonus points for finishing your matches. CHALLENGE LADDERS THAT KEEP EVERYONE PLAYING Challenge someone above you, win, and take their spot. Admins decide how far anyone can reach, when challenges expire and what happens if someone ignores one. Players heading away can freeze their place. KNOCKOUT TOURNAMENTS Run a knockout from the first round to the final, or play round-robin groups first and feed the knockout from group positions. Byes are handled automatically, seeding is up to you, and the bracket updates live as results come in, so everyone at the club can follow the day on their phone. AMERICANO LEAGUES The padel and pickleball favourite, ready for any sport. Enter solo, partner everyone once, and every point counts for you — partners rotate each round, so the standings are all yours. Perfect for club nights where everyone plays with everyone. MEETS — SOCIAL SESSIONS, SORTED Recurring social sessions: set the schedule once, members RSVP to each date, and balanced matches are generated on the night. Waitlists fill empty spots automatically, everyone gets a reminder before RSVPs close, and the results still count towards club stats. PAYMENTS FOR CLUBS Charge session fees for meets or entry fees for competitions, with card payments handled securely end to end. Set your own cancellation policy, let waitlisted players take a late dropout's spot, and see exactly who's paid — no more chasing cash at the door. SCORES AND APPROVALS No more chasing results. Either player enters the score, the opponent taps to approve, and standings, ladder positions and brackets all update automatically. Scoring is configurable per sport and per competition, with game-by-game breakdowns. SCHEDULING MADE SIMPLE Propose a date for your match and your opponent confirms with a tap. Your upcoming matches are always to hand, so everyone knows who they're playing and when. CLUB STATS Every result feeds live leaderboards, so you can see exactly who's on form. Recent form, win rates, activity and all-time records for your whole club, plus your own Tap Leagues rating. FOR ORGANISERS • Members and roles: review join requests and share admin duties • Invite links: one link to join your club, a competition or a meet, with optional approval • Announcements, group chat and email tools: reach every member without exporting address lists • Custom scoring systems: points and bonuses that match how your club actually plays • PDF exports and website widgets: tables, brackets and results for the noticeboard or your own site REAL-TIME NOTIFICATIONS Challenges, score approvals, results, standings and RSVP reminders. Never miss a beat. Free for players and clubs. Set it up, send the link, and let the bragging rights begin.
