How BallBall collects and counts padel data

BallBall combines public listings from supported booking platforms with game posts from connected club communities. This page explains what each number means and where it can be incomplete.

Clubs

A club is counted once per city after BallBall can identify its venue and location. Club names, addresses, court counts, opening hours and amenities can come from the booking source, the club itself or a public business listing. Clubs can ask us to correct their record.

Open games

An open game is a future match that its source currently presents as having at least one place available. Counts can change during the day as players join, leave or cancel. A place is only confirmed by the original booking provider or organiser; BallBall does not override its rules.

Prices and levels

Game prices are shown per player when the source exposes that amount. The typical price is the median of currently priced open games in one currency. Level averages use only records where a numeric level is available, so they describe the visible sample rather than every player in a city.

Tournaments and trainings

These counts cover upcoming events visible through the platforms and organisers BallBall currently supports. “Upcoming” does not guarantee that entry remains open. When a source supplies availability, BallBall shows it; players should confirm status on the organiser page.

Freshness and corrections

City pages state when their game snapshot was measured. Event feeds and club facts update on their own schedules, so two counters may refresh at different moments. For a correction, email hello@ballball.app with the page URL and the fact that needs changing.

Last methodology review: 16 September 2026. BallBall publishes observed availability, not a guarantee from a venue or booking provider.
