Sports Court Booking & Club Management Software
Courts booked online, billed by the minute, and lit automatically for exactly as long as they are paid for — with memberships, packages and overtime rules that hold without an argument.
The problems this solves
What you get
Court Booking
Reserve courts ahead, take deposits or full payment, and check players in with a QR code.
Automatic Court Lighting
Where relay hardware is installed, lights follow the session — on at start, off at stop or when booked time expires.
Session & Overtime Rules
Fixed bookings, grace periods, extensions and manager override, with overtime charged by your rule instead of by mood.
Memberships & Packages
Member rates, prepaid bundles and loyalty that apply automatically at booking.
Maintenance Blocking
Take a court out of service so it cannot be booked while it is being resurfaced or repaired.
Court Utilisation
Occupancy and revenue by court and hour, so pricing follows demand.
Court light automation
The same relay control that switches billiard table lights drives court floodlighting where the hardware is installed. The session start closes the coil, the session end — manual or automatic when a fixed booking expires — opens it, and every command is acknowledged and logged.
Because commands expire if they are not collected, a controller that reconnects late cannot switch lights on a court that has already moved on to the next booking.
Bookings, deposits and check-in
Courts can be reserved in advance with a deposit or full payment, and players check in on arrival. Clubs running memberships can hold member rates and prepaid bundles against the account, so the correct price applies automatically rather than being negotiated at the desk.
Why operators choose it
- Bookings and payments captured before the player arrives.
- Lighting cost tied to paid court time instead of habit.
- Overruns handled by a rule everyone can see.
- Member pricing applied the same way by every member of staff.
- Evidence for peak pricing and court investment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it switch court floodlights automatically?
Yes, where relay control hardware is installed at the club. Lighting follows session start and end, including bookings that expire on their own.
Can players book and pay online?
Yes — bookings with deposits or full payment, and QR check-in on arrival.
Which sports does it cover?
Any court-based sport that bills by time: tennis, padel, squash, multi-sport halls. Courts are configured individually with their own rates.
How is overtime handled?
By a rule you set: stop the session, convert to a pay-as-you-go rate, charge an overtime rate, or hold it awaiting payment. Managers can override where needed and the override is logged.
