Americano
Who is this for?
HR & People Teams
A team-building event people actually want to attend. Real results, a relaxed setting, and nothing that feels obligatory.
Business Clubs & Networks
Rotary, Lions, industry associations. An Americano tournament is the perfect format to connect members with each other.
Tournament Organisers
Running several events a year? Slams scales with you. One platform for all your events, whatever the venue.
Three steps
How it works
No spreadsheets. No manual bookkeeping.
Pick a club in your region
Get in touch with an affiliated padel, tennis or pickleball club. The club books the courts and creates the event in Slams.
Share the sign-up link
Participants register themselves through a link. No spreadsheet, no chasing email addresses. The system does it for you.
Slams handles the rest
Pairings, schedule, live standings and final results. Plus: one-click refunds when a participant cancels, and automatic team creation on sign-up. All you have to do is show up.
Formats
Most-used formats
Pick the format that fits your group and your goal.
For the organiser
No spreadsheets, no WhatsApp groups.
The club takes care of the courts and the tech. You stay in control of participants and payments, without any manual work.
Cancel with one click
Too few sign-ups or a last-minute cancellation? Cancel the whole tournament and every payer is automatically refunded through Stripe or Mollie. Everyone gets an email right away.
Move a participant
A team dropped out? Shift the registration to another part of the event or a different tournament. Cheaper: refund the difference. More expensive: the participant automatically gets a payment link for the extra amount.
Multi-format wizard
A festival with a morning Americano and an afternoon knockout? Build the tournament in a single wizard with multiple parts. Participants sign up for the part that matches their level.

Americano is by far the most popular format for companies, whatever the sport. Everyone plays all day, partners switch every round, and the format works with all levels mixed together.
An Americano works well from 8 participants on 2 courts. For a full tournament with several rounds, 12 to 24 participants is ideal.
Yes. Americano is especially suited to mixed groups. The format levels out differences in ability because partners switch every round.
The biggest cost is court hire: €20 to €35 per hour per indoor padel court. Tennis and pickleball vary by venue. For a group of 20 people, expect €800 to €1,300 in total including drinks afterwards.
