K6 Pickleball Session Manager — Run Every Session Like a Pro

Who this is for

Built by a player. Made for the people who host.

There's a difference between turning up to play and being the person responsible for running the session. K6 PSM is built for the second group — club session hosts, not just players.

★★★★★

"K6 PSM completely transformed how we run our weekly sessions. What used to take a long time to setup and schedule players now takes only seconds. Players love seeing their courts and scores on the clubhouse screen."

George Barty

Pickleball Session Host

★★★★★

"I run sessions myself every week, so every feature in K6 PSM exists because I needed it on court — not because it looked good on a feature list. That's the difference between a tool built for hosts and one built for a demo."

Brian Krisanski

Pickleball Australia Certified Coach & Championship Medalist

★★★★★

"Finally a tool built specifically for pickleball sessions. Summit Rumble keeps the games genuinely competitive — teams are balanced every round so nobody gets stuck on a mismatch."

Developed and battle-tested at Brisbane Bayside Pickleball Club — built to run at any club, anywhere.

Sound familiar?

Running sessions shouldn't be this hard.

Every session host knows the drill — it eats into court time and leaves players waiting while you do the maths.

📝

Paper & Whiteboard Chaos

Scribbling names, erasing, recalculating who sits out — then someone can't read your handwriting and the whole round has to be redone.

🧮

Manual Maths Every Round

Balancing teams by skill level, tracking partnerships, ensuring fair sit-outs — all in your head, under pressure, with a dozen players watching and waiting.

😤

Fairness Complaints

Same partners twice in a row. Strong players always together. Manual management almost always produces something someone thinks is unfair.

How it works

From zero to running in under two minutes.

K6 PSM is designed to be picked up and used without a tutorial. Here's the typical flow for any session.

Sign in with Google, name the session, choose your format, set the number of courts, select doubles or singles, and configure options like the points-per-win system, timer duration and partner locking.

Add Your Players

Add players manually, import from CSV, or pull straight from an OpenSports attendee export. Enter DUPR ratings for skill-balanced formats. Lock partner pairings. Add latecomers at any point — even mid-session.

Generate & Play

Tap once to generate the round. Courts are assigned, teams balanced, sit-outs rotated. The Display Board in the clubhouse updates automatically. Countdown timer starts.

Score, Repeat & Review

Enter scores as matches finish, including draws where your format allows them. Live W-L-D standings update instantly. When you're done, review the full session breakdown, download the CSV, and share results with your club.

Session Management

Full control, start to finish.

K6 PSM manages the complete lifecycle of a session — from first sign-in through to final results and history. Sessions scale from 4 players right up to as many courts as your venue has.

🔐

Secure Sign-In

Every session sits behind a sign-in gate with a branded splash screen — no one views or edits a session without an account. Guests can still follow along via a read-only share link.

🏆

W-L-D Tracking & Points System

Every match result is tracked as a win, loss or draw where the format allows it. Set your own points-per-win value so standings reflect exactly how your club scores a session.

⚙️

Session Settings

Configure courts, format, timer duration, and scoring rules once at session start. Everything downstream — round generation, standings, exports — respects your setup.

Access Control

The right access for everyone in your club.

K6 PSM uses a role-based permission system so the right people have the right access — without anyone accidentally changing something they shouldn't.

Admin

Club Administrator

Full access — create and manage sessions, manage the player list, enter scores, configure club settings, manage users, and download or share results. The person running the session.

FAQ

Common questions answered.

Does K6 PSM work on iPhone?

Yes. K6 PSM is a web app that runs in any modern browser — Safari on iPhone, Chrome on Android, or any desktop browser. There's no app to install from the App Store or Play Store. You can add it to your home screen for a full-screen, app-like experience.

Do I need internet access on court?

An internet connection is required as K6 PSM uses Firebase to sync and store all session data in real time. A standard mobile data connection is all you need — no high-speed wifi required.

How many players can a session handle?

K6 PSM scales from 4 players right up to as many courts as your venue has. There's no hard cap. The app automatically calculates court assignments and sit-outs regardless of group size.

Does the subscription cover my whole club or just me?

The subscription covers the admin account. Club members can view active sessions and follow along via share links at no extra cost. Only the person running sessions (the admin) needs a paid subscription.

What is DUPR and do I need it?

DUPR (Dynamic Universal Pickleball Rating) is a skill rating system used in pickleball worldwide. It's optional — K6 PSM uses DUPR ratings to balance teams in Summit Rumble format, but you can run Random Draw and Ladder Climb sessions without any ratings at all.

Can players enter their own scores?

No — score entry is admin-only in K6 PSM, by design. This keeps one clear source of truth for every result. Members and Guests can view live scores and standings on their own device as they happen.

What happens to my session data if I cancel?

Your session history is stored in Firebase under your account. We'll always give you reasonable notice before any data is removed. You can export session results as CSV at any time so you always have your own copy of the records.

How do I set up the Display Board?

From within a running session, tap Connect Display Board to get your unique link or QR code. Open that link in any browser on a TV, laptop, or spare phone in your clubhouse. It updates automatically — just open it and leave it running.

What do I get at the end of a session?

A full session review: final standings with 🥇🥈🥉 podium, individual W-L-D stats for every player, complete match history, and a partnership summary. Download it all as a CSV and share a results link or share card with your players.

Can players see their own results after the session?

Yes. The admin can share a results link that anyone can open on their own device — no login or account required. They'll see the full final standings, their own stats, and every match from the session.

Does my K6 PSM account work in K6 PTM too?

Yes. K6 PSM and K6 PTM (K6 Pickleball Tournament Manager) share the same login and club data. If your club runs both regular sessions and occasional tournaments, one account covers both tools.

Is my data secure?

Yes. K6 PSM uses Google Firebase for storage and authentication, which means your data is protected by Google's enterprise-grade security infrastructure. Sign-in is via Google Sign-In — the same technology used across Google's products.

When will the free demo and subscription be available?

Both are launching soon. Add your email in the pricing section to be first to know and to receive early access. Founding members who express interest now will get first access and may be eligible for a preferential rate.
