Run a beach tennis tournament from a phone

Beach tennis events run pairs through pools and a bracket on a few sand courts. Set the match length once, a set to 6 for pools or two sets and a match tiebreak for the knockouts, and every match follows it.

Every match uses beach tennis rules
  • 15-30-40 with a deciding point at deuce (no-ad)
  • Sets to 6, tiebreak at 6-6, or a 10-point match tiebreak instead of a third set
  • One serve, lets played
  • Doubles by default, singles too
