Pickleball is played on the court. Everything else -who plays, against whom, at what time, on which court, and who paid for it- gets sorted in DinkGo. YOUR CREW, WITH ITS OWN NAME The Tuesday group finally is somebody. Create your crew, invite with a link that travels through WhatsApp, and post games your crew sees first -or crew-only games-. And when a game closes, one tap sets up next Tuesday's. TOURNAMENTS: FROM FINDING ONE TO BEING IN Search tournaments by city, see how many spots are left and the price before you commit, and sign up paying by card or PSE. When the organizer publishes the schedule, we tell you. During the tournament you follow your bracket, your times and the live standings, check in from your phone and confirm your results. GAMES: THURSDAY NIGHT, WITHOUT THE GROUP CHAT ARGUMENT Create a game, set how many spots there are and let people join. DinkGo builds the matches: - King of the court: winner stays, loser rests, next one in. The app keeps the queue and says who is up now. - Americano: rounds with rotating partners and the table builds itself. - Free: the plan and the people, no format. Every game has its thread for logistics -"running 10 min late", "I bring balls"- and at the end the final table is shared as an image, so it lands in the group chat as a picture instead of a link nobody opens. PLAYING TODAY? AND "ONE SHORT" Raise your hand and your city knows you are in for today. And if a game loses its fourth player at the last minute, the "One short" button pings the people whose hands are up: first to say "in", plays. THE COMMUNITY Explore: what verified local clubs and coaches post, plus a pickleball news item and a coaching tip from us every day. Your group has a wall, and every post can be reported. THE MAP Games with open spots and courts, on a map. Tap a pin, open the game. NOTIFICATIONS THAT ACTUALLY MATTER "You're up, court 2." "Your time changed." "Your share is still due." Only what makes you move. And when the signal drops at the courts -it always does- the app still shows your schedule from the last data it managed to download. DINKGO BALANCE: THE COURT MONEY Top up a balance in Colombian pesos with your card and pay a tournament entry or your share of the court rental. If a friend paid the whole rental, you transfer your part from the app. Every movement keeps its date, amount and note, so "I owe you from last week" is over. The balance is prepaid, it pays for real-world services -entries and courts- and you can always see where every peso went. ON YOUR APPLE WATCH Score the game with the digital crown, without taking the phone out of your bag. See who you play next and how the table stands, and keep your court and round right on the watch face. TRAINING, EVEN WHEN YOU PLAY ALONE Start a workout from the watch -with a game or without one- and DinkGo counts your shots, your bursts of continuous play and your heart rate, and saves the session to your Health app. It calibrates once, in three steps, so power is measured against you and not against an average. It measures how much you hit, how hard and at what pace; it does not tell a dink from a drive and does not claim to. Requires Apple Watch. YOUR GAME, IN NUMBERS Matches played and won, current streak, and El Clasico: your history against your usual rival, with the option to challenge them to the next real match. Save your DUPR ID in your profile and the organizer will be able to report the tournament results in DUPR's official club format. IF YOU ORGANIZE Publish your tournament, collect entries, generate the schedule and run the desk live. For the control room with several courts at once, open dinkgo.app on a computer: that is where it all fits. Made in Colombia, in Spanish, for the courts here.
