About tennis and padel in London with Korta

When you swipe right on a player's profile, Korta.club sends them a game request notification. You'll receive notifications when someone sends you a game request. The recipient can review your profile and either accept or decline the request. If they accept, you'll be notified immediately and can start chatting to coordinate your match details like court location, time, and playing format. If they decline, you'll simply see other potential partners - no awkward interactions or wasted time. This system ensures both players are genuinely interested in playing before initiating contact.
Open Korta.club and set your location to discover tennis/padel players in your area. Our smart matching algorithm automatically finds compatible players based on your skill level, availability, and playing preferences within reasonable distance from you. Swipe right on profiles you like to send them a game request. When they accept your request, you'll be notified and can start chatting to arrange your first match. Most users find 3-5 quality partners within their first week.
Korta.club excels for beginners because our ELO-based matching system ensures fair competition at every level. New players start with a calibration period during their first 10 matches, where our algorithm learns your true skill level and adjusts your rating accordingly. After calibration, you'll be matched with players of similar ability regardless of their self-reported level, ensuring competitive and enjoyable matches as you improve.

Our smart matching algorithm considers your self-reported skill level for both tennis and padel when showing you potential partners. You can set different skill levels for each sport (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced), and we'll prioritize showing you players within 1-2 levels of your own abilities. This ensures more balanced, enjoyable matches whether you're playing tennis or padel. You can always adjust your skill level settings in your profile as you improve.

Korta.club focuses specifically on connecting tennis and padel players. Once you're matched with a partner, you'll coordinate court selection and booking directly with them through our messaging system. Players typically discuss their preferred courts, locations, and timing to find a mutually convenient place to play. This approach allows maximum flexibility for both players to choose courts that work best for their needs and preferences.
While Korta.club focuses on connecting you with tennis and padel partners, many players in London share information about local courts and weather conditions through our chat feature.

Korta.club uses an advanced ELO-based rating system for precise skill matching in London. New players enter a 10-match calibration period where our algorithm learns your true ability level through match results. After calibration, the system automatically assigns your NTRP rating and matches you with players of similar skill. This ensures consistently competitive matches with other London players.
New Korta.club users enter a 10-match calibration period designed to accurately determine your skill level. During calibration, our ELO algorithm uses enhanced adjustment logic to quickly learn your true ability based on ranking match results against various opponents. Practice matches during this period won't affect your calibration - only ranking matches count. This period allows for larger rating swings to rapidly converge on your correct skill level. After completing 10 ranking matches, your rating stabilizes and you'll be matched with consistently appropriate opponents. The calibration system ensures fair matching regardless of initial self-assessment accuracy.
Korta.club uses a proprietary ELO-based system that converts to: • NTRP (2.0-7.0): For tennis players • LTR: For padel players After your 10 ranking match calibration period, the system assigns your equivalent NTRP (tennis) or LTR (padel) rating based on actual match performance rather than self-reporting. This ensures more accurate skill matching than traditional rating systems. Practice matches allow you to play without affecting these ratings.
Korta.club uses four main skill categories: • Beginner: Learning basics, developing consistency • Intermediate: Comfortable with rallies, developing strategy • Advanced: Strong technique, competitive play • Pro: Tournament-level skills New users start with a self-assessment, then enter a 10-match calibration period where our ELO algorithm determines your true skill level through match results. The system uses enhanced adjustment logic during calibration to quickly identify your accurate rating. After calibration, you'll have a precise NTRP (tennis) or LTR (padel) rating that updates automatically as your skills improve.
If you're in your calibration period (first 10 ranking matches), you may face opponents of varying skill levels as our ELO algorithm determines your true rating. This is normal and helps the system learn your ability quickly. After calibration, mismatches typically indicate rating adjustments in progress - the ELO system continuously updates based on your recent ranking match performance. In areas with fewer players, the system expands the search to find suitable matches while maintaining reasonable quality standards. Remember, you can always play practice matches if you want to play without rating pressure.
