Closer clubs come first
When you search near a place, a club's score is reduced the further away it is, so a nearby good club usually beats a far-away great one.

How we rank clubsand what Sponsored means
Search results on CourtPass are ordered by how good, bookable and active a club is — not by who pays. Clubs can pay to be shown higher in some places, and every one of those placements is labelled Sponsored.
What decides the Recommended order
Every claimed club gets a score from six signals. The weights below are the ones we use.
Quality
30%
Verified reviews from completed bookings, how complete and accurate the listing is, and the club's track record.
Bookability
25%
Can you actually book here? Online payments, published prices, courts and opening hours.
Popularity
15%
How many players booked the club recently, compared with other clubs in the same country.
Profile
10%
Photos, a useful description, amenities, hours and a logo.
Responsiveness
10%
How rarely the club declines booking requests (instant-confirm clubs score full marks).
Freshness
10%
New clubs get a short welcome boost; otherwise, recent bookings keep a club fresh.
Clubs you can't book online yet count at half their score.
You choose the order
Recommended is the default. Switch to price, rating or distance at any time — those orders never include paid boosts.
- Recommended
- The score above, adjusted for distance. The only order where sponsored boosts apply.
- Price
- Lowest price first for what you searched for.
- Rating
- Highest verified rating first, then the number of reviews.
- Distance
- Nearest first.
Paid placement
What Sponsored means
A club can pay a higher commission on its sales to appear higher in search, or pay for a spot in a homepage row. Paid placements are always labelled Sponsored.
- A boost raises a club's score by at most 50%. It never decides the order on its own.
- Only clubs above our quality floor that can be booked online can be boosted.
- A boost only applies to the sport or product the club paid for, and only on the Recommended order.
- Homepage rows show only a few paid spots, in a daily rotation, with the same Sponsored label.
Ads are separate
Banners and native ads from advertisers are marked as ads. They never change how clubs are ranked.
Clubs not on CourtPass yet
Some listings come from public information so you can see every place to play. They can't be booked here and are ranked on their public rating, below comparable bookable clubs.
Reviews you can trust
Only players who completed a booking can leave a review, and clubs can't remove the ones they don't like.
