Easy Pickleball Ladder is the simplest way to run a weekly pickleball group. Pick your eight players, and the app builds every matchup for you — no spreadsheets, no arguing about who plays with whom. TWO WAYS TO PLAY Ladder — Four fixed teams play a double round robin, then the top seeds meet in a championship match while third and fourth play for the bronze. Round Robin — Partners rotate every round using a balanced schedule: over seven rounds, you partner with each player exactly once and face every player exactly twice. Everyone plays with everyone, and it's mathematically fair. BUILT FOR THE COURT - Tap a court to enter scores — first to 11, win by 2, with longer games like 15-13 handled automatically - Winners are marked the moment a score is valid - Two courts per round, all eight players on at once - Seven rounds per session, and as many sessions as your season needs STANDINGS THAT ADD UP See where everyone stands for a single session, across the entire season, or all-time across every season you've ever played. Records track wins, losses, and total points scored. SHARE THE RESULTS One tap turns your session into a clean summary image — every round, every score, and the final standings — ready to send to your group in Messages, email, or anywhere else. Everything is stored on your device. No account, no sign-up, no ads, and nothing is ever collected about you or your players.
