Pickleball auction software

Pickleball leagues are multiplying, and a player auction is the fastest way to turn a club’s members into balanced franchises. KreonBid gives a new league the look of an established one.

Leagues it suits

Any league that picks its teams by auction.

  • Club and society pickleball leagues
  • Franchise-style city leagues
  • Corporate tournaments
  • Mixed and women’s leagues

KreonBid runs the whole auction night: the LED screen in the hall, the operator’s console, a live screen on every owner’s phone and a public view for players and families.

Its rules are about purses, squads and sets, so they fit pickleball as they are. You decide the purse, the squad size and how players are grouped; KreonBid enforces it on every bid.

Setting up a pickleball auction

How leagues set it up.

01

Sets by skill level

Create sets such as Pro, Advanced, Intermediate and Beginner, each with a base price and a maximum per team, so teams end up evenly matched.

02

Men’s and women’s players

Make separate sets for men and women with a minimum of each per team, so every squad can field mixed doubles.

03

Player cards

Put the player’s rating or playing hand in the role and notes fields.

04

Second category

Copy the auction with its rules and sponsors for a seniors’ or juniors’ category.

On the big screen

Every player gets their moment.

Auction day

Five steps, from rules to results.

01

Set the rules

Purse, squad size, sets (grades) with base prices and quotas, bid increments, branding and sponsors. A readiness check flags numbers that cannot work.

02

Add teams and owners

Teams with colours and logos, the owner who plays for each team, and a login for every owner. Print all the login QR codes on one sheet.

03

Import the players

Upload the registration sheet (Excel or CSV, such as a Google Form’s responses), then bulk-upload photos named by serial number or player name.

04

Run the auction

Draw a player, take bids, sell. Every screen in the hall and every phone follows within a second.

05

Share the results

Squad sheets, full results and the audit log as PDF, everything as Excel, and a poster per team for WhatsApp and Instagram.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Can KreonBid run a pickleball league auction?

Yes. KreonBid’s purse, squad, set and bid-increment rules apply to any team league. For pickleball, sets usually follow skill level, with separate sets for men and women where mixed doubles need both.

How do we keep pickleball teams balanced?

Give each skill-level set a maximum per team. A team that has its quota of top players cannot bid on another, and KreonBid enforces this on every bid.

How do we guarantee each team has enough women players?

Create a set for women players with a minimum per team. KreonBid reserves squad slots and purse for it and warns you before the day if the pool cannot cover every team.
