We only light a court when it's full
paduno fills the hours you find hardest to sell with hosted, level-matched games. A court goes live only when four players have booked it, so every court we confirm is four paying players, paid every Monday. We're looking for our first venue partners. No venue is signed yet.
Why partner with us
What we're designed to add. These are aims, not results. We'll report the real numbers to you every week.
Paid for full courts
We never hold a court we haven't filled. Each one we confirm is four paying players, and the captain fills in if anyone drops out.
Hours you can't sell
Late weekday courts, Sunday evenings, and daytime women's games in school hours. You choose the hours. We never ask for peak.
Players who are new to you
People who come alone and would never book a court of four. We count how many are new to your venue, and they're free to book with you directly.
Your bar, after the game
Our games end with Play again: players meeting the people they want to see next week. That conversation happens at your bar.
No clash with your socials
We don't run on the nights you run your own Americanos and socials, and we never sell below your own social price.
Players who come back
Levels, a season table and crews give players a reason to come back next week, and to come back to the same courts.

Women's daytime sessions
Weekday daytime is the hardest time for most venues to sell, and one of the best times for many women to play. We want to run women's games in school hours, hosted by women captains. They work best on an indoor court that isn't overlooked from public areas, ideally with women staff on duty.
If your venue could host them, we'd especially like to hear from you. What those sessions need.
