Padel
Score Padel matches for up to 4 players simultaneously. Each player sees the scoreboard on their smartphone and Garmin smartwatch. MVPlayer acts as a virtual umpire, announcing the score aloud via your phone after every point. So you can focus on the game, not the score.

Up to 4 players can join the game lobby, take their court positions, and agree on match preferences like the number of sets and deuce format. Once everyone is ready, the match can begin!
The Scoreboard
The live display shows player names, detailed match scores, and a visual serve marker indicating exactly where the next serve should be taken. Scores sync instantly across all connected devices.

Smartphone Only Scoreboard
Don't have a Garmin smartwatch? No problem! You can still manage the match directly from your smartphone. The simplified scoreboard allows you to update game scores manually by tapping the plus circle icons next to the appropriate team whenever they win a game.
Instant Tap & Play with Golden Court
Featuring Instant Tap & Play, these smart holders allow you to slide your phone in and automatically load your private game lobby with match settings according to your preferences. No manual setup, no waiting—just immediate You play, We score! action.
The brackets snap securely onto the Padel cage, transforming your smartphone into a high-visibility court-side scoreboard. While your Garmin watch handles the scoring, the phones handle the display and audio.
We recommend a minimum of two Golden Court brackets—one for each team at the cross corners of the court. For the complete experience, use four brackets so each player has a dedicated display to check the score at any moment.
