ClubPad vs Pickleheads for pickleball clubs

ClubPad is built around one thing: your club. Its name, its history, its own members and roles. Not court-finding, not pickup games, not gear.

We built ClubPad to do one thing: run your club.

Sessions, payments, the Live Mixer, Club Hub, the History tab and a public page with your club's name on it.

Pickleheads takes the opposite approach. Look at its own menu: Play, Organize, Facilities, Shop. Your club is one thing in there, Groups, tucked under Organize.

Pickleheads is still right if

You're looking for pickup games, you aren't attached to one club, and finding a court matters more than running your own sessions.

The short version
  • Pickleheads: courts, pickup games and gear, with a Groups feature inside.
  • ClubPad: your club, its roles, its history, its night, fee-free payments.
  • If you run a club rather than look for a game, that's the difference.

Your club, with its own name on the door.

Create your club free. Members join with one link, and the night runs from one phone.
