Competition without Excel

Stop using Excel.
Start using Slams.

Padel, tennis and pickleball clubs still running their competition in Excel spend far too much time on something that can be automatic. Slams handles standings, schedules and results. Without spreadsheets.

Sound familiar?

The admin gets results over WhatsApp, updates the standings in a shared Excel file and emails the schedule around. Players have no idea when they play until they actively ask.

That used to be the only way. Now there’s Slams. Players sign up themselves, enter results after the match and see the live standings on the club page. The admin only has to confirm.
