Pickleball Round Robin Generator

Pickleball round robins run in two different formats, and the biggest source of confusion is not knowing which one your event is using. In a fixed-team round robin, you pick a partner before play starts and stay with them the whole event: your team plays every other team once, exactly like a standard round robin, and you track wins and losses as a pair. In a rotating-partner round robin, everyone signs up as an individual and gets a new partner each round; the generator assigns courts and partners automatically, and standings track each player's own wins, not a fixed team's.

This generator supports both: pick "Fixed teams" and enter one team per line (for example "Ann / Ben" for a pair that plays together all event), or pick "Rotating partners" and enter individual player names. For rotating partners, the schedule avoids repeat partnerships whenever the number of players and rounds allow it — 8 players over 7 rounds, for example, pairs you with a new partner every single round — and always spreads opponents out as evenly as it can. Either way, set how many courts you have and the generator lays out every round so nobody's court assignment overlaps and rest turns rotate evenly among whoever is sitting out.

Once the schedule is generated, tap any court to enter both scores; the standings table updates immediately, ranked by wins, then point difference. Switch to big screen mode to show the current round's court assignments and a live standings table on a TV at the venue, or print the schedule for a check-in table.
