What makes up a match
Each match record contains:- Two sides: singles players, doubles pairs, or teams
- Date and time: when the match is scheduled to start
- Court or venue: the physical location assigned to the match
- Score: the points, games, or sets recorded during play
- Result: the outcome that determines a winner, loser, or draw
Match states
Match Point tracks every match through one of four states. The state controls what actions are available and what players see on their dashboards.
A match moves from Scheduled to In Progress automatically when the first score is entered, or you can change the state manually from the match detail page. Completed and Cancelled are final states: to reopen a match, an administrator must reset it to Scheduled.
Match formats
Match Point supports the most common racquet-sport formats out of the box:- Singles: one player versus another player
- Doubles: two-player pairs competing as a team
- Team match: multiple rubbers or courts grouped under one team result
Where matches appear
Once created, a match shows up in several places so everyone stays aligned:- Club calendar: all scheduled matches in chronological order
- Player dashboard: upcoming and recent matches for each participant
- Tournament bracket: the match slot it occupies in elimination or round-robin draws
- Court schedule: the daily view that venue managers use to avoid double bookings
