New
for Pickleball
Play to Your Strengths. Helps you to
understand which shots you hit more
consistently so you can play to your
strengths.
We all know the pickleball
scene has been exploding
over the past few years. One
Birmingham, AL, software
company wants to make your
playing experience better with
its new apps, PickleballStat
and PickleUp KEYSYS.
PickleballStat tracks and
analyzes every match, and
PickleUp helps players organize
pickup games.
PickleballStat provides
players with an intuitive interface to
allow scorekeeping, game rallies,
stroke breakdowns, etc. Whether
you are a 3.0 player or pro, stats and
numbers provide concrete evidence to
identify strengths and weaknesses to
improve your game.
PickleballStat’s features include:
Enter Game Rallies. Enter rallies,
shot-by-shot, to generate key
performance metrics about your game.
Breakdown Strokes. Breakdown your
strokes by forehand and backhand for
serves, 3rd shots, attackable shots,
winners, forced errors and unforced
errors.

Minimize Unforced Errors. Identifies
which shots produce undesired results
so you can drill to improve those shots.
Receive Detailed Reports on Each
Match. The reports include Rally
Momentum, Shot Breakdowns, Forced
& Unforced Errors, Attackable Shots,
and more.
Scoring. Keeps track of the score
and indicates the server/receiver
throughout a game. There’s also a
scoring-only feature.
Compare Against Other Players.
Shows the number and percentage
of shots you made in relation to your
partner and your opponents, to gain
insightful information and visualize
your play against your opponents.
PickleUp hosts and manages
pick-up game announcements and
requests for RSVPs at courts in your
area. It even allows you to see who is in
or out, as well as the skill level of each
player, while keeping your personal
contact information private (other than
your first name and the first initial of
your last name). One of our favorite
features is that players can search
for pick-up games in any area of the
country, which is great when traveling.
PickleUp’s features include:
