Play

Doubles: Two against two. 4 players on a court, and the player on your side is your partner.

Singles: One against one. 2 players on a court, no partner.

Most open play nights are Doubles.

GameQ uses the length to give everyone about the same number of games.

Games run until they're won. The rules

Everyone takes turns in the order they checked in. You can change it during the session.

You get a private run link. Anyone with it can run the session, so share it only with people helping you.

Sessions you run or play in show here, so you can get back to them.

The TV runs itself

Every court, up next and the line, with QR codes to check in and to see when you play.

Players added by @ get their standing and a card to share.

Everything a host needs

What a busy open play night throws at you, already handled.

  • Players check themselves in

    Turn on self check-in and show the Check-in QR. Players scan it and join the line.

  • Everyone knows when they play

    The Player page shows who is on court and who is next, on any phone. No app.

  • The TV calls the games

    Courts, up next and the line on a big screen, and it says the names out loud.

  • Run it together

    Share the run link and a friend runs the session from their own phone.

  • Bring your list

    Paste a group chat list, bring in a Reclub event by its link, or link your open play.

  • Partners who stay together

    Lock two players as partners. They share a side all night.

  • Levels on their own courts

    Beginners and stronger players each get their own courts and line.

  • Every change has Undo

    Wrong winner or a mixed up game? Undo sits right where the change happened.

  • Standings people trust

    Wins, win rate, points and strength, why each place, and a card to share.

9 ways to match players

Pick one when you start, and change it any time during the session.

Rotation

Everyone takes turns in the order they checked in.

Good for: Mixed groups who want plenty of games and to meet new players.

  1. Players join the line as they check in.
  2. When a court frees up, the player who has waited longest plays, with the people they have played with or against least.
  3. Each game puts two who won their last game with two who lost, one of each on a side, so a winner can carry a loser.
  4. Everyone who played goes to the back of the line. In a small group, two players may stay on for one more game with new faces.
