Why Clubs Are Switching to First Place Brackets
Other platforms are bloated, overpriced, or make you cobble together multiple tools. We built one platform that does it all.
No App Downloads
Players just open a link. Works on every phone, tablet, and computer — no installs, no updates, no friction.
Actually Affordable
Competitors charge $100–$300+/mo for features you'll never use. We keep it simple with plans that fit any club size.
One Dashboard, Everything
Tournaments, leagues, courts, memberships, player communications, and subs — managed from a single screen.
Automated Busywork
Attendance emails, sub notifications, score alerts, court rotations, and seeding — handled automatically so you don't have to.
Live Results for Players
Real-time brackets, standings, and scorecards that players can check on their phones between games.
Built-in Sub System
Players manage their own attendance. When someone can't make it, eligible subs are notified automatically. No group texts needed.
DUPR Match Submission, Built In
Push tournament and league results straight to DUPR — no spreadsheets, no copy/paste, no separate uploader. Submit a single match the moment it ends, every match in a round at once, or every match for the whole event in one click.
- Per-match submit buttons next to every completed match in both tournaments and leagues
- Per-round submission for round robins (works across multi-cycle round robins too)
- Bulk submit, resubmit, and delete — if a score changes, push the update; if you make a mistake, pull it back
- DUPR-only events: automatically enforce DUPR connection for every registered player and partner, plus optional DUPR+ or Verified requirements
- Full audit log of every create, update, and delete — with the DUPR match codes saved on each row
Or submit each match individually
Requires a DUPR club account · CLUB and LEAGUE match sources supported.
Don't Take Our Word for It — Try It Yourself
Our sandbox gives you full access to a real admin dashboard loaded with sample data. Create a tournament, enter scores, check standings — everything works. Nothing you do affects real users.
