On the day, an organizer is the check-in desk, the scheduler, the scorekeeper and the help line, all at once. RNKD takes the bookkeeping off you: players arrive already cleared, matches go to open courts, the bracket moves on as scores come in, and everyone can see what's next without asking you.
Every team on your roster has already paid. Before the day, each player signs your event waiver in the app or in the browser, and signing unlocks their check-in code. At the door you, or your staff, scan the code and they're in.
Tell RNKD how many courts you have. When a match is ready it goes to the next open court, and players get a notification with the court number. A match with no free court shows as waiting for a court, and takes the next one that opens.
Planning how long your day runs? Try the tournament length calculator: teams, courts and format in, total matches and hours out.
Enter a score from your phone, or from a laptop in the organizer console, and the bracket moves on by itself. Players can also report their own score in the app, and the other team confirms it.
A big field needs more than one pair of hands. Add staff to the event and give them the day-of jobs, while the money and the big decisions stay with you.
| Staff can | Only you can |
|---|---|
| Check players in | Edit the event |
| Enter and correct scores | Complete or cancel it |
| Assign courts and call forfeits | Remove or disqualify players |
| Start the event and move rounds on | Settle disputes and see payouts |
| Draw and seed the bracket | Post announcements |
Staff can't enter scores in an event they're playing in.
Players see the bracket, the standings and their next match in the app, and it updates the moment a score goes in. For everyone else, every event has a live page that works in any browser, no app and no account needed: courts, results, standings and the bracket. Put it on a screen at the venue, or send it to the parents and friends in the stands.
Need to tell every team something? Post an announcement and every team gets it at once. Each team also has its own message thread with you, so questions don't get lost in a group chat.
Mark the event complete and the standings are final. For 7 days after, a captain can file a report if a result looks wrong, and you settle it in your dispute queue. When the window closes, your entry fees go out. More on that in how you get paid.
At paid events every match also moves each player's rank, which is a big part of why players come back.
Each player signs your event waiver before the day, which unlocks a check-in code on their phone. You or your staff scan it at the door. Unsigned waivers float to the top of your list.
Yes. Add staff to the event and they can check players in, enter scores, assign courts and move the bracket on. Payouts, refunds, disputes and editing the event stay with you.
No. Every event has a live page that works in any browser, with courts, results, standings and the bracket.
Players can report a score and the other team confirms it. If they disagree, you are notified and enter the real score. Your score, or your staff’s, always wins.
No application and no waitlist. Free events are free, and on paid events you receive the full entry fee you set.
