You’re probably not managing just one sport anymore. Your club might’ve started with tennis or pickleball, but now you’re offering padel, fitness classes, maybe even events or social spaces. The question is: can your software actually keep up?
Most systems break down once you go beyond basic court scheduling. You’ve probably felt that. Every time you add a new offering, you’re stuck hacking together a workaround. That’s not scalable
This guide shows how CourtReserve handles it differently. Whether you’re running racquet sports, adding wellness services, or managing multiple spaces under one roof, we’ve built tools to support all kinds of sports, facilities, and formats — without needing a second platform (or a second coffee).
Let’s dig in.

How leading clubs power growth with CourtReserve
What racquet & paddle sports does CourtReserve support?
CourtReserve is built to handle the complexity of racquet and paddle sports — with tailored settings for reservations, programs, pricing, and access control. Whether you’re managing one sport or many, our platform is fully customizable to the unique needs of your club.
Here’s a look at the racquet and paddle sports CourtReserve is built to support:
Tennis
Played in singles or doubles on full-size courts, often with a mix of hard, clay, or grass surfaces. Clubs manage court reservations, ball machines, private lessons, clinics, ladders, and tournaments.
Pickleball
A fast-growing paddle sport played on smaller courts with a lower net. Known for open play, rating-based programs, drop-in games, and rotating partners — all of which require flexible scheduling and capacity control.
Padel
A doubles-only sport played in enclosed courts with walls in play. Padel has specific court sizing and growing programming needs — often added alongside tennis or pickleball within modern clubs.
Squash
Played in enclosed indoor courts with fast-paced rallies and solo or challenge matches. Squash often involves shorter booking durations and needs ladders, leagues, and quick turnover scheduling.
Racquetball
Similar to squash, but with a larger ball and racquet, and different court dimensions. Popular in athletic clubs and gyms with fast scheduling cycles and recurring matches.
Badminton
Played over a net with a shuttlecock, often on multi-use courts. Clubs may run youth clinics, drop-in sessions, or competitive matches, depending on their setup.
Table Tennis (Ping Pong)
Ideal for casual play, leagues, or event nights. Reservations are typically by table, not court, and require a different approach to availability and scheduling.
Does CourtReserve support any non-racquet sports?
Yes — CourtReserve supports more than just racquet sports.
While we’re associated with racquet sports, organizations are using our platform to manage a variety of sports and reservable activities.
Here are just a few examples of how customers are using CourtReserve beyond the court:
Volleyball
Played on indoor or sand courts, volleyball is often scheduled for practices, leagues, and open play in gyms or rec centers.
Basketball
A fast-paced team sport typically offered on full or half courts with structured bookings, open slots, or recurring sessions.
Bocce Ball
A relaxed yet strategic game played on turf, sand, or gravel— popular in parks, social clubs, and multipurpose venues.
What other types of facilities does CourtReserve support? (6 use cases)
While CourtReserve was originally designed for court-based sports, our platform is a highly flexible and customizable solution. So, it’s capable of supporting a wide range of reservable spaces and facility types well beyond tennis and pickleball clubs.
Today, it’s used by organizations of all kinds to manage schedules, control availability, and simplify access across a variety of bookable spaces and services.
Let’s take a look at how CourtReserve is being used beyond the court:
Gyms, Fitness & Wellness Centers
Used to manage reservations for group fitness classes, personal training sessions, yoga as well as shared fitness areas and recovery zones.
Country Clubs
Coordinate scheduling across multiple amenities — from racquet sports to dining, spas, events, and more.
Universities & Schools
Support student programming, intramurals, and shared-use facility access across campus recreation departments.
Homeowner Associations (HOAs)
Enable community residents to book courts, pools, clubhouses, or neighborhood amenities through one centralized system.
Multi-Use & Event Facilities
Ideal for spaces that flex throughout the day — like party rooms, seasonal event areas, or training spaces.
Eatertainment Concepts
Designed for businesses that offer a mix of play, dining, and social experiences.
What started as a platform for court reservations has become the management engine behind a variety of reservable spaces, services, and experiences. The reason? Flexibility.
Whether you’re running a single-purpose facility or managing multiple offerings under one roof, CourtReserve adapts to your needs and scales with your business. No patches. No workarounds. Just a system that fits how you operate today and where you’re headed next.
Your business isn’t one-dimensional, and your software shouldn’t be either.
“We didn’t know CourtReserve could do that.”
We hear it more often than you’d think:
“Wait… CourtReserve can do that?”
And honestly, we get it. For years, we focused our messaging on tennis and pickleball — because that’s where we started. But our platform was always capable of more.
The truth is, CourtReserve has grown far beyond court scheduling. It’s become a flexible, customizable system that supports all kinds of spaces, services, and setups — often in ways that surprise people.
Behind the scenes, it’s already being used by clubs with multiple sports, facilities with wellness and fitness offerings, schools with layered programs, and entertainment venues with food, games, and social experiences.
And that’s because we’re built to support the way you want to run your business — not force you to adapt to our system.
So if you’ve looked at CourtReserve and thought, “this isn’t quite for us,” it might be time to take another look.
Why CourtReserve works: Flexible tools for every space
Here’s how the platform supports multi-sport, multi-use, and multi-location operations:
Space & resource management
Create and manage any type of reservable space within CourtReserve – each with its own rules, duration, and visibility. Set up resources like ball machines or projectors as standalone reservations or booking add-ons. And use Combo Courts to split one space into two smaller spaces while automatically syncing availability.
Reservations & smart scheduling
Build custom reservation types with specific rules for duration, visibility, and member access. Use smart scheduling tools to control court availability, group spaces by use, prevent double-bookings, and keep everything running smoothly. No spreadsheets or workarounds — just clean, conflict-free scheduling.
Membership management
Set up tailored membership types with billing, restrictions, and effective dates. Automate key tasks like onboarding, renewals, and payment tracking. Manage dues with recurring billing, send targeted emails, and run reports to understand member engagement. Track invoices, waivers, and agreements — all in one place.
Program and event management
Create and manage weekly programs, tournaments, clinics, and socials with customizable registration forms, player restrictions, and waitlists. Collect upfront payments, add event disclosures, and streamline signups
Private coaching & staff management
With CourtReserve’s Book-a-Pro and staff management features, you can simplify private lesson scheduling and staff coordination. Give members an easy way to book instructors based on availability, skill, or location — while controlling access, tracking hours, and managing permissions on the backend.
Integrations that expand what you can do
CourtReserve integrates with industry-leading tools so you can simplify operations without sacrificing functionality. Enable secure facility access, automate marketing, sync skill ratings, or connect F&B purchases — all within your existing workflows.
Every tool in CourtReserve is built with adaptability in mind — designed to meet the unique needs of your facility. Whether you’re supporting multiple sports, expanding your space, or introducing new offerings, CourtReserve grows with your organization at every stage. One platform that’s built to flex and ready to scale.
