Your tennis club, without the admin headache
From USTA team coordination to weekly drill sessions, Start Time keeps your members organized — and fills the open spot before you have to ask twice.
Create your Tennis group — freeBuilt for tennis organizers
Everything you need to run a great tennis group.
Open spots fill themselves
Someone cancels the morning of a session? The waitlist is notified automatically and the first confirmation fills the spot. No more working your contacts list one by one.
NTRP groups that stay honest
Set a skill level requirement on every session. Your 3.5 drills stay 3.5. Your 4.0+ matches stay competitive. Members know which group is theirs.
Recurring sessions without the repetition
Set up your weekly drills or round robin once. Members sign up for each session individually. You never start from scratch.
NTRP levels — built into your sessions
Set an NTRP requirement when you create an event. The right players show up. The wrong ones see exactly why they don't fit — and find the group that does.
2.5–3.0 · Beginner
Learning the game. Inconsistent groundstrokes, rallies are short. Best served by drilling-focused sessions.
3.5 · Recreational
Consistent recreational player. Gets most balls back, plays doubles regularly, starting to develop shot selection.
4.0 · Club Competitive
Reliable groundstrokes, can sustain longer rallies. Plays USTA leagues. The most active club player tier.
4.5–5.0+ · Advanced
Tournament player. Strong serve and net game, tactical and consistent. Needs genuinely competitive opponents.
One calendar for everything your club runs
Weekly clinics, Saturday round robins, USTA team practice, the summer mixer. Put each one on the calendar once, set who it's for and how many can play, and Start Time takes care of the signups, the waitlist, and the reminders.
Recurring sessions, per-session signups
Set up your Tuesday 6pm drill as a weekly series. Every instance opens for signups on its own schedule, so regulars commit week by week and you always know who's coming.
Capacity that matches your courts
Two courts of doubles is eight players. Set the cap, and everyone past it goes on the waitlist. When someone drops, the next player is notified and the spot fills itself.
Changes reach everyone at once
Court moved, rain delay, start pushed 15 minutes — post one announcement and every signed-up player gets it. No forwarding, no group chat archaeology.
Sessions by level, under one club
Keep your 3.5 clinic and your 4.0+ match play as separate sessions or separate sub-groups. Members see the NTRP requirement before they sign up.
Start Time schedules sessions and people, not courts. It works alongside whatever your club already uses to reserve court time — a booking system, a front desk, or a text to the pro.

Frequently asked questions
What app do tennis clubs use to manage sessions?
Start Time handles recurring drill sessions, round robins, and USTA team coordination — with NTRP skill groups, one-tap RSVPs, and automatic waitlists.
How do I fill an open spot on my tennis roster last minute?
When someone cancels, Start Time notifies the waitlist immediately and the first person to confirm fills the spot automatically.
Can I set NTRP requirements for sessions?
Yes. Set a skill level range when creating an event so the right players sign up. Your 4.0 drills stay 4.0 — no mismatched skill levels showing up.
How do I manage recurring weekly tennis sessions?
Create a recurring event once — set the day, time, capacity, and signup window. Members sign up for each session individually. You never start from scratch.
Is Start Time free for tennis clubs?
Yes — Start Time is free for tennis clubs to get started. Create your club, schedule sessions, and invite your members at no cost.
Does Start Time book courts?
No. Start Time schedules your sessions and your members — you keep booking courts the way your club does today. Mark each session "Court confirmed" or "Venue TBD" so players know where things stand.
Can I schedule a whole season of weekly sessions at once?
Yes. Create one recurring series and every week's session appears on the calendar automatically. Members sign up per session, you can skip a holiday week, and you can end the series whenever the season is over.
How do members get reminded about a session?
Everyone who's signed up gets a reminder email the day before with a link to the session. Anyone who can't make it releases their spot from there, and the waitlist is notified right away.
Can I run different sessions for different NTRP levels?
Yes. Set a skill range on each session, or create sub-groups under your club — a 3.5 group, a 4.0+ group — each with its own schedule and members.
