B-Admin-TimePickleball open play organiser for your group
B-Admin-Time helps you organise regular pickleball for your group: sign-ups with spot limits, a lottery when more people want to play than there are spots, a match schedule across courts, and costs split between players.
More players than spots
Pickleball draws new players fast, and courts are scarce. Instead of rewarding whoever sees the message first, you can switch sign-ups to a lottery (Regular plan): everyone who signs up during the window gets an equal chance, and the rest go on the waitlist. See sign-ups and the waitlist and when to choose a lottery.
Lots of people, a few courts
With a dozen or more players on three courts, someone has to keep track of who’s on next. The game schedule (Regular plan) sets the order of matches and assigns courts, and on the Pro plan the generator picks doubles pairs and opponents based on player level. More on sessions and courts.
Newcomers without adding them to the group
Someone wants to try it but isn’t in the group yet? On the Pro plan you open a single session to players from outside the group, and after the game you can invite them to stay. See open sessions.
Outdoor courts and weather
Playing outside in summer? Mark which courts are outdoor in the venue settings, and every slot on them shows an hourly forecast: conditions, temperature, rain and wind (MET Norway data — the same as yr.no). When the forecast two days before the game shows a thunderstorm, heavy rain or cold, the admin gets a suggestion to cancel. They cancel the chosen slots with one button, and players get notified. Your group decides what counts as bad weather and who gets the alert.
How the app adapts to Pickleball
- Sessions are split into courts and time slots — the way you book them at the venue.
- A new match defaults to doubles — you can switch any match to singles.
- Extra costs come with a ready-made “Balls” item, split equally between the session’s players.
- The group and its sessions are marked with the 🎾 emoji.
- Sign-ups, the waitlist, settlements, the ELO ranking and notifications work exactly as in every other sport.

Frequently asked questions
Does pickleball work differently from badminton in the app?
Only in the details: extra costs come with a ready-made “Balls” item and the group gets the 🎾 emoji. New matches default to doubles, just like in badminton. Sign-ups, the waitlist, settlements and the ranking work the same in every sport.
What if more people want to play than there are spots?
You can switch sign-ups to a lottery: everyone who signs up during the window has an equal chance at a spot, and those who don’t fit go on the waitlist. The lottery is on the Regular and Pro plans.
How do I let newcomers play without adding them to the group?
On the Pro plan you open a single session to players from outside the group. They see only their session and their own settlement, and their matches don’t change the group ranking. After the game you can invite them to the group.
Does the app show the weather for outdoor courts?
Yes. Courts marked as outdoor in a venue show an hourly MET Norway forecast next to every slot (up to about 9 days ahead). When the forecast is bad, the admin gets a suggestion to cancel and can cancel the chosen slots; players are notified. Available on every plan.
How much does it cost for a pickleball group?
There are three plans: Lite, Regular and Pro. They differ in member limits and features, and current prices are on the pricing page. Every new group gets 14 days of full Pro access for free, with no card required.
