Frequently Asked Questions

League Registration

What is a local league on Courted?

Some community leagues, run by local tennis associations, use Courted for registration. You sign up and pay in the app, and the same app then runs your season: schedule, lineups, scores, standings, and team chat. Each league's page shows its registration dates, season dates, fee, team size, and divisions.

How do I find my league?

Your league organizer will share a link to the league page. Open it and sign in, or create a free account first and then open the link again. Captains start here. Players usually just need the invite link or team code from their captain.

I'm a captain. How do I register my team?
  1. Open the league page and sign in.
  2. Tap Create a team, pick your division, and enter your team name. You'll be the captain.
  3. Tap Continue to payment and pay your own registration fee on the secure checkout page.
  4. Your team is registered. You'll get a confirmation email with your team code and invite link.
  5. Send the link or code to your players. You can find both anytime from your team page under Roster → Share invite.

Each player pays their own fee when they join, so you don't need to collect money from anyone. Players appear on your roster as soon as they've paid.

I'm a player. How do I join my team?
  1. Get the invite link or team code from your captain.
  2. Tap the invite link and sign in, or create a free Courted account. Have a code instead? Go to the League tab, tap Have an invite code? Join a team, and enter it.
  3. Tap Join team and pay your fee on the secure checkout page.
  4. You're on the roster, and you'll get a confirmation email.
How does payment work?

You pay by card through Stripe on a secure web page. Courted never sees your card number. If you have a promo code from your league, enter it at the payment step.

What if a division is full?

Each division has a set number of team spots. Once a division fills, it closes to new teams, and you'll see that before you pay, not after. If the division you want is full, contact your league organizer.

Which email should I sign up with?

Use the email you'll use all season. Your registration, receipts, and team are tied to that account, so a second account won't show your team.

Can I get a refund?

Refunds are up to your league organizer. To ask for one, open your team page and tap Request a refund. Your request goes to the organizer by email, and they'll follow up with you directly. Once a refund is issued, your team page shows it.

Who do I contact with questions?

Questions about the league itself, like divisions, schedule, rules, or refunds, go to your league organizer (their contact is in your registration email). Questions about the app go to support@courtedcourts.com.

I run a league. Can I use Courted?

Yes. Email us at support@courtedcourts.com and we'll set you up with league admin tools: divisions, registration windows, online payment, and a schedule your teams see in the app.

Getting Started

Where can I use Courted?

On iPhone (App Store), Android (Google Play), and in any web browser at app.courtedcourts.com. It's the same account everywhere, so you can sign up on the web and pick up on your phone later.

How do I sign in?

On iPhone and on the web you can use Sign in with Apple. Everywhere, including Android, you can also sign in with an email address and password. If you've forgotten your password, tap Forgot password on the sign-in screen to reset it.

What is an NTRP rating and how do I set mine?

NTRP (National Tennis Rating Program) is the standard skill scale used by USTA leagues, running from 2.0 (beginner) to 7.0 (professional). In Courted your NTRP rating is called your skill level and is self-reported. To set or update it, go to the Profile tab and tap Edit Profile. Your rating is shown on your profile and used to help players find opponents at a matching level.

How do I update my profile?

Go to the Profile tab and tap Edit Profile. You can update your display name, skill level, and other details from there.

Pricing

Is Courted free?

Yes — Courted is currently free. Every feature is unlocked for everyone: match scheduling, the activity feed, Discover, courts, stats, photos, Shot of the Day, league tools, and all captain tools. There's nothing to subscribe to and no paywall right now.

Do I need to enter payment details or start a trial?

No. There's no trial, no card required, and nothing to cancel. Just sign in and use the app.

Then why am I being asked to pay to join a league?

Some local leagues collect their registration fee through Courted. That fee is set by the league organizer and goes to the league, not to a Courted subscription. The app itself stays free. See League Registration below.

Will Courted always be free?

We may introduce paid plans in the future, but everything is free for now. If that ever changes, we'll let you know in advance — you won't be charged for anything without opting in first.

Still need help? Email support@courtedcourts.com.

Scheduling & Matches

How do I schedule a match?

Tap the + button at the top of the Home screen. You can post an open match that any nearby player can accept, or send a direct match request to a specific player by searching their name. Set your preferred time (exact or a flexible window), choose a court, and you're set.

How do I log a match I already played?

Any match you've played can be logged from the Home screen — including casual matches, matches with players who aren't on Courted, and matches for a league or team that isn't set up on Courted. On the Home screen, tap Log Result → (top right). You'll land on the Log a Match screen, where you first tell Courted whether the match was scheduled through the app:

  • If it was scheduled through Courted — you'll see a Your recent matches list at the top. Tap the match you played and its opponent, date, and court are filled in for you. Just enter the score and tap Save Result.
  • If it wasn't scheduled through Courted — tap Not from a scheduled match → below that list (or you'll go straight here if you have no scheduled matches). Then fill it in yourself: pick the date played, choose singles or doubles, select your opponent (and partner for doubles), and pick a court. For anyone who isn't on Courted, tap Not on the app? Add manually → and just type their name. Enter the score and tap Save Result.

After saving, you'll have the option to add up to 3 photos, or tap Skip and add them later. The result then shows up in your stats, match history, and activity feed just like any other match.

I play in a league that isn't on Courted — how do I record those matches?

Log them the same way as any other match: from the Home screen tap Log Result →, then Not from a scheduled match →, and enter the opponent, court, date, and score. This records the match in your personal stats and history. Note this is different from a USTA league whose team is on Courted — those should be logged from the League tab so they count toward team standings (see "How do I log a league match result?" below).

How do I add photos to a match result?

After tapping Save Result on a match, you'll be prompted to add up to 3 photos from your device's photo library. If you tap Skip, you can always come back later — open the match from your activity feed or profile history and tap the photo option on the match detail page.

How do I edit or delete a match?

For regular matches, go to the Profile tab and find the match in your history. Tap the match card to open it, then tap the pencil icon in the top right to edit the score or delete the match. For league match scores, go to the League tab, open the match, and use the edit option there.

Teams, Lineups & Scores

How do I join a league team?

Ask your captain for the team's invite link or team code. Tap the link, or go to the League tab, tap Join a team, and enter the code. Your captain can also add you directly using the email you signed up with. If you're a captain, go to the League tab and tap Create Team. You'll automatically become the captain, and you can share an invite from your team's roster.

How does league management work?

Captains manage everything from the League tab: creating the team, adding roster members, setting lineups, coordinating availability, exchanging lineups with the opposing team, and logging scores. Players can view their upcoming matches, mark their availability, see match results, and talk with the team in team chat.

How do I import my USTA match schedule?

When creating a league team, you can import your schedule automatically by uploading screenshots of your USTA (TennisLink) schedule — Courted reads the dates, times, and opponents from the images so you don't have to enter each match by hand. Watch the walkthrough below to see exactly how it works:

Still stuck? Email us at support@courtedcourts.com and we'll help you import.

How do I mark my availability for a league match?

Go to the League tab and open your upcoming fixture. You'll see an availability section where you can mark yourself as available, unavailable, or note a preference. Your captain will see your response when setting the lineup.

How do I log a league match result?

Go to the League tab, find your match, and tap Log Score. Enter the set scores for each court and tap Save Result. You'll have the option to add up to 3 photos — or tap Skip and add them later from the match detail page.

Does logging a score in Courted report it to USTA?

No. Courted is not connected to USTA and doesn't sync with TennisLink in either direction. Scores you log in Courted stay in Courted (for your team's view, history, and stats) and are not sent to USTA. Likewise, scores entered on USTA won't automatically appear in Courted. USTA/TennisLink remains the official system of record for your league, so keep reporting your official scores there as usual. The screenshot import is a one-time, one-way convenience for pulling in your schedule — it doesn't create an ongoing link between the two systems.

How do I dispute a league score?

If the opposing team logged a score incorrectly, your captain can edit it directly from the match in the League tab — tap into the match and use the score edit option. Both teams will be notified of the change. If you're still stuck, email us at support@courtedcourts.com.

Can a captain manage multiple teams?

Yes — you can create or manage as many league teams as you captain.

Social & Discovery

How do I find players to play with?

Go to the Discover tab to browse players near you. You can filter by skill level and city. Tap any player to view their profile, then follow them or send them a direct match request.

How do I follow another player?

Tap any player's name or avatar to open their profile. Tap the Follow button. If their profile is private, they'll receive a follow request and can approve or decline. Once you follow someone, their match results appear in your activity feed.

How do I react to or comment on a match in the feed?

Open the Activity tab to see your feed. Tap a match card to open the detail view, where you can leave a reaction or comment. Comments and reactions are visible to others who follow the match participants.

What is Shot of the Day?

Shot of the Day is a daily tennis puzzle. A new scenario is presented on a court diagram each day — tap where you'd hit your shot, then confirm. You'll see how your choice scored and the optimal play explained. Check the leaderboard to see how you rank against other players.

Account & Privacy

Is my data private?

Your profile is visible to other Courted users by default. You can turn on Private Profile from the Profile tab — followers must be approved, and your match history won't appear on the public feed. Match data shared inside a league (scores, lineups) is visible to your teammates and opponents. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

What happens to my data if I delete my account?

Deleting your account permanently removes your profile and personal data within 30 days. Match results and scores you logged with other players may remain visible in their history (e.g., a doubles partner's match record), but your name will be removed. This action cannot be undone.

How do I delete my account?

Go to your Profile tab, scroll to the bottom, and tap Delete Account. This permanently removes your account and associated data. The action cannot be undone.

Can I use Courted on the web?

Yes. The full app runs in any browser at app.courtedcourts.com, including scheduling, leagues, chat, and the feed. Sign in with the same account you use on your phone. Push notifications only come through the iPhone and Android apps.

Still need help? Email support@courtedcourts.com.

Troubleshooting

I can't sign in — what do I do?

On iOS, if you use Sign in with Apple, make sure you're signed into your Apple ID under Settings → Apple ID. If you signed up with email, enter your email and password on the sign-in screen and tap Forgot password if needed. On Android, use your email and password. If you're still stuck, email us at support@courtedcourts.com.

Why can't I see the activity feed or certain features?

How do I report a bug or problem?
