What you get
Everything a captain needs
Lineups
Field the lineup most likely to win
Every legal combination, tested against what the other team can send.
Lineups built for the worst case
Searches your legal lineup combinations, then tests the best ones against the 20 strongest counter-lineups the other captain could answer with. You get the card that holds up if they guess right.
The lineup you're about to face
Reads the opponent's roster, recent form, and which positions each of their players actually shows up at, then shows you the card they're most likely to send out. If their captain rolls a line, putting a weaker pair at 1D to stack the others, you see which line and how often.
Plan the whole sectionals weekend
Allocates every fixture at once instead of one match at a time, and rests players off a same-day back-to-back when you have the roster to spare and it barely costs you.
The chores
Take the tedious parts off your plate
The texting and chasing that eat your week.
Know who to chase
See who's in and who's out for every match, and who hasn't answered, ranked by how much each one would raise your chance of winning. We can remind the ones who haven't answered automatically, a week before, so you're not the one chasing. Your lineup only uses who said yes.
Reschedule without the back-and-forth
Rained out or short players? Offer up to five new times. Players vote from a link, you see who can make each one, and when you confirm a time their answers carry over as availability for the new date.
Your team
Give your players a better season
What your teammates get once your team is on MatchPoint.
Tough one at Concord, but we took it 2-1. Devin and Ari closed out 3D 7-5 in the third after dropping the first set. That puts us 2nd in the flight with two to play.
A match summary for the team chat
When scores land, MatchPoint writes up the match from the scorecards: every line, the close sets, what it means for the standings. Pick a voice and share it in the team chat in one tap.
Playoff odds after every result
Everyone on the team can see where you stand: your odds after every result, which match left matters most, and which rivals have to slip. NorCal's real tiebreak order: individual match wins, then sets, games and head-to-head.
Ratings that update after every match
Every player gets a live rating that moves after every match they play, and can see exactly which match moved it and by how much. Something to talk about besides the score.
The rating engine
Ratings that move when you play
A USTA level is a bracket, not a number, and it only changes once a year. MatchPoint solves a real rating for every player on your roster from their actual results, and updates it the night your team plays.
- ✓A separate singles and doubles rating, because plenty of 3.5s are one and not the other
- ✓Every rating carries its uncertainty, so you know which numbers to lean on
- ✓Bump risk from 15 signals: rating uncertainty, form trend, match consistency
- ✓Solved in-house from USTA results, not resold from another rating service
Setup
Ready in three steps
Sign in with your phone
One SMS code. No password to remember or reset.
Connect your USTA NorCal account
We pull your roster, schedule, ratings, and each player's availability per match, then keep them current every night without being asked.
Open the match you're dreading
Confirm who's in, and the optimizer returns five lines with the win probability for each. Tell it to pin a player or split a pair and it re-solves around you.
Sarah can’t play after 11. And don’t pair Rick with Dave again.
Both applied. Sarah takes 1S in the early slot; Rick moves to 2D with Chen. Re-optimized: win probability 61%.
Constraints
Change it in a sentence
The optimizer doesn’t know about the carpool, the tweaked shoulder, or the two players who shouldn’t be paired again. Tell it in plain English and it re-solves around what you know.
- ✓Pin a player to a position, or keep two of them apart
- ✓Constraints stack, and each one stays visible as a chip you can drop
- ✓Ask why a line was chosen and get the matchup behind it
Your next lineup is two minutes away
