Residents book the pickleball and tennis courts themselves, fair-use limits keep them shared, and the board stops refereeing the sign-up sheet.
Most neighborhood courts run on a clipboard, a group text, or whoever gets there first. It works until a few residents book every prime evening, someone holds a court for a no-show, and the complaints land on the board. Schedule Courts replaces all of that with a schedule every resident can see and rules that enforce themselves.
Pick the HOA fair-use preset and residents get an advance booking window, daily and weekly limits, a cap on prime-time hours and a cancellation lockout. Limits can apply per person and per household, so one family cannot take every evening.
Share a join code with residents, or require approval so only verified homeowners get in. They book from any phone or computer with no app to install, and get email confirmations, plus text reminders if they opt in.
A public schedule shows what is booked and what is open, with names hidden unless you choose to show them. Put the kiosk display on a screen by the courts and players can check before they walk over.
Most HOAs never charge for court time, so payments are off by default and prices never appear. If your association charges guests, turn payments on and fees go to the association's own Stripe account. Two courts are free, and up to eight courts is the Community plan at $24.99 a month. Billing hasn't started yet: every facility is free while we build it.
