Freedom for your front desk with online calendars

When your residents can view court schedules and book court time online, you reduce time spent on the phone answering the same questions over and over. With filtering by facility, location, and time of day, residents can book directly, giving your staff time to focus.

Flexible policies for all kinds of play

We can accommodate all your different courts. Set aside time blocks for first come first serve, reservations, or even open play. You can distinguish between pickleball and tennis availability, and even carve out time for instructor-led programs — all in the same interface.

Preserve equity with 
fair rules

Limit booking abuse with automated caps on reservations. Prevent "ghost accounts" with multi-factor authentication and identity verification so everyone gets a fair chance to play.

Booking the way your players want (on their phones)

We’re mobile-first and fully responsive so players can book on the go. Players can even scan QR signs at the courts to see what’s available in real time — and book from their phones in seconds.

Activated instructors for more programs & revenue

Turn bandit instructors into another source of quality programming. With Rec’s Instructor Network solution, we can activate your city’s pros to offer formal lessons on your courts so you can offer more programming to meet your city’s growing demand.

FAQs

Can Rec handle high-volume bookings during peak hours?

Yes — Rec is designed for your busiest days. Our platform handles hundreds of concurrent users without performance drops, thanks to enterprise-grade infrastructure.

How do you stop people from abusing booking systems?

We require dual-authentication (email + phone verification) and let you set custom rules for booking limits per user.

How does Rec handle scheduling conflicts between sports?

Rec’s real-time scheduling grid automatically blocks off associated courts when one is booked, so if tennis is scheduled, connected pickleball courts are marked unavailable.
