Frequently asked questions

Bookings

Courts can be booked via Playtomic, up to 7 days in advance. The courts become available hourly, e.g. a 10am court becomes available at 10am a week beforehand.

 

Private Bookings vs Open Matches

You can either book a private court, or start/join an open match.

For private bookings, you can pay for only your share, and allocate other players yourself, or you can pay for the whole court.

An open match allows you to start or join a match with other players that you may not know. Open matches need to be fully allocated, otherwise the Playtomic system will automatically cancel them and refund you.
