What you get

Four ways to earn, one place to run them.

Everything below is live in the product today — no waitlists, no beta gates.

Sell lessons
A public listing that shows up in the coach directory, with your rates, calendar, and reviews. Players book; you get paid.
  • Public listing with reviews + your credentials on display
  • Optional Certn background check — earn the green Verified badge parents filter for
  • Calendar, scheduling, and bookings in one place
  • Instant payouts on every lesson
Run tournaments
Host open tournaments under your own name — collect entry fees or keep it free, publish the draw, and crown a champion in your zone.
  • Entry fees collected at registration — or free entry
  • Draws, brackets, and self-scheduled leagues
  • Organizer scoring — you report the results
Create private clubs
Turn your community into a members-only club zone with its own ladder, community board, and pricing you control.
  • Member pricing for your players
  • A club community of its own
  • Optional club fee, paid to you via Stripe
Get paid to hit
Play With Pro is paid hitting, not lessons — juniors, beginners, and rec players book court time with a stronger player. That can be you.
  • You set the hourly rate
  • Post open offers or answer player requests
  • Payments through TFL, or arranged directly

No whistle required

You don't need to be a coach to earn here.

If people want to hit with you, you can get paid for it. Any solid local player can activate a Pro account and earn with Play With Pro — paid hitting sessions with juniors, beginners, and anyone who wants court time with someone better.

  • No certification or coaching resume — your rating is your resume
  • Set your own hourly rate and the formats you'll play
  • Not a lesson: no curriculum to plan — and every session review builds your public reputation

Organizers & community leaders

Not a coach? You can still run the show.

Parents, community leaders, and anyone organizing for a school, club, church, or company can run a tournament or start a club on TFL. You bring the people — TFL does the brackets, scheduling, scoring, and payments.

Run a tournament
Pick a format and TFL builds the draw, schedules the matches, keeps the standings, and crowns your champions.
  • Knockout, round robin, pools + playoff, or Swiss
  • Flights by age, gender, and level — or keep it Beginner-only
  • Score from your phone; standings update as you go
  • A public page with champions and age, gender, and level award winners
  • Waitlist, player updates, and a link to share
Start a club
Give your group a members-only home — its own ladder, its own board, and events only your members see.
  • A private club with its own rankings ladder
  • Members-only community board and club tournaments
  • Free to run — or set member pricing and an optional club fee, paid to you
Who it's for
Anyone who brings players together. No coaching résumé, no certification.
  • Parents and PTA volunteers
  • HOAs and neighborhood groups
  • Rec centers and schools
  • Churches and nonprofits
  • Workplace and social leagues

How it works for organizers

  1. 1

    Sign up free

    Create an account and pick the Pro account type — it's for organizers too, not just coaches.

  2. 2

    Say what you'll run

    In Pro setup, tick “I run tournaments or ladders” or “I run a club or community,” then add a photo and a few lines about yourself. Tournaments also need a contact phone.

  3. 3

    Create it and share the link

    Set the date, format, and entry fee (or none), publish, and share your link. Players sign up — TFL takes it from there.

  • No coaching experience or certification — that's only for selling lessons
  • No tech skills needed — TFL builds the draw, the schedule, and the standings
  • Free to sign up. Tournaments with paid entries are free to create; a free-entry one is $5, and your first is on us
  • Charging entry? You keep 100% of every entry fee — payouts go straight to you through Stripe
