Tennis clubs

Software for the club, not only the courts

A volunteer-run tennis club is two things at once. It is a set of courts that members want at seven on a weekday evening, and it is a programme: junior coaching on Saturday morning, a mix-in on Sunday, a cardio session, a team night. Most tennis software is built around the first and fits the second in where it can.

ClubPal handles both in the same place. Each court has its own availability, peak windows set by day and time, and its own cancellation rules, and the price is resolved from the booker's membership at checkout, so a member, a junior and a guest see three different rates without anyone checking at the gate. Coaching and club sessions run with a real capacity and a waiting list, and a term of junior coaching sells as a block paid upfront.

Subs renew across adult, junior, family, student and social categories with eligibility rules attached, the club website is included, and there is no monthly bill sitting behind any of it through the winter.

Member, junior and guest court rates
Three prices for the same hour, resolved from the booker's own membership when they pay. Nobody has to police guest fees.

A term of coaching, paid upfront
Sell ten weeks of junior coaching as one block with usage and expiry tracked, instead of collecting a few pounds every Saturday.

Club sessions with a real cap
A cardio class, a mix-in or a squad night capped at the places the courts support, with a waiting list that fills gaps on its own.

A week of a club calendar with a training weekend running from Friday evening to Sunday afternoon, beside the club's regular swim, run and bike sessions

The whole club's week, on one calendar

Sessions and club events sit on one calendar that every member can open on their phone. They book a place, pay in the same step when there is a fee, and the register is ready before anyone arrives.

Pictured is a demo club's week. Yours is set up the same way: create a session once, repeat it weekly, and cap it at the places you really have.

Try it with your own tennis club. Free to set up, no card required, and nothing to cancel.

Courts or programme?

A court sheet and a coaching programme are different problems

What court software does well

Software built around tennis courts is good at slots, and LTA-registered venues get ClubSpark without a subscription. If courts are most of what your club does, that is a strong option.

Hourly slots on a named court

Gate and floodlight integrations

LTA competitions built in

Where ClubPal fits better

Clubs whose week is mostly sessions, coaching and membership, and clubs outside the LTA scheme that would be paying a subscription for court software.

Sessions with capacity and automatic waiting lists

Coaching terms sold as blocks, paid upfront

No subscription, whatever your club size

Tennis club admin

Built for how a tennis club actually runs

A court sheet that takes money

Each court with its own availability, peak windows and changeover buffer, plus a fifteen minute hold at checkout so two members cannot take the same slot.

Subs that renew themselves

Adult, junior, family, student and social categories, each with its own price and renewal date, and eligibility rules so the right people buy the right one.

Coach credentials with expiry dates

Hold DBS checks and coaching qualifications against each coach, and stop someone whose check has lapsed being put on a junior session.

Tournaments and socials

Sell entries to the club championships or tickets to the summer barbecue, with variable pricing, capacity limits and eligibility rules.

Message one squad, not the club

Email a single team or coaching group about a change without mailing every member, with GDPR-compliant tooling built in.

Court usage and income together

Which slots fill and which never do, next to what came in, so the committee can price peak time on evidence.

Double bookings, no-shows, peak pricing and what a club should charge for a court are worked through in the full guide to facility hire bookings.

Common questions

Questions from tennis clubs

Is ClubPal free for tennis clubs?

There is no subscription, no per-member charge and no feature tier. A club that takes no payments through ClubPal pays nothing at all. When you do take money, the fee is 20p + 3.5% per transaction with card processing already included.

Does ClubPal control gates or floodlights?

No. ClubPal takes the booking and the payment, and does not connect to gate, door or floodlight hardware. A club that depends on access control tied to bookings is better served by court software that has it, such as ClubSpark.

Can a member book the same court at the same time every week?

Not as a repeating series yet. Each court booking is a single date. Regular club activity is different: a coaching group, a mix-in or a team night is a session, and sessions repeat weekly without being rebuilt.

Is ClubPal connected to the LTA?

No. LTA membership numbers can be held in a custom profile field, but ClubPal does not check them against the LTA, and LTA competitions and rankings stay where they are.

Can guests and non-members book a court?

Yes. Anyone you allow can book and pay at the rate you set for them, and a member's own rate is applied automatically from their membership. A guest needs a free account to make the booking.
