32The Swish App by <a href="https://swishsportsapp.com">Swish Sports App</a>
33is a convenient way to create pickleball match-ups; however, there are some
34disadvantages to using this app. First, the free version of the app doesn't
35allow a recreational user to generate round-robins. Second, in certain
36situations (such as 10 teams on 4 courts) even the paid version of the app
37doesn't seem to work well: the byes aren't distributed fairly among the
38teams.
39<br>
40<br>
41Below you can find simple PDF versions of various team match-ups that you
42can print and avoid the issues above. These PDFs are designed for team play
43where each team of two players stays together for the meet. (I have each
44team choose a letter at random using laminated slips of paper in a jar
45before the play begins.) At the
46<a href="https://www.homecourtpickleballclub.com/">pickleball facility</a>
47where I play the team play events are called "Partner Rally" since rally
48scoring is used to help move the rounds along more quickly. Anywhere from 2
49to 5 courts are used to support from 4 to 12 teams.
50<br>
51<br>
52Below you'll find various versions of match-ups depending on the number of
53players and the number of courts available. For example, 10 teams (20
54players) on four courts will require 45 total games or 11 rounds of 4 games
55each plus a final round of 1 game, with two teams on "bye" each round. Have
56fun!
