League nights and tournaments for friends who keep score
Cornhole, darts, pickleball or whatever your crew plays: Rival Nights handles the invites, a fair schedule, scores, standings and playoffs. You bring the trash talk.
Your first league is free. See pricing. Got an invite? Sign in.
See it in action
Here's one league night in the app, from the game on your phone to the standings after. Real screens from a demo cornhole league.
Everyone knows the plan
Open the app and tonight's game is right there: who you play, what time, where the boards are.
Keep score as you play
Tap in each round from the board. Both teams see the same score, and it keeps counting with no signal.
The other team confirms
The final score goes to your opponents to confirm in one tap. Nobody has to take anyone's word for it.
The standings do the math
Wins, tiebreakers, clinched spots and who's out of the race, updated the moment a result counts.
How a season works
Cornhole, pickleball, ping pong, darts, bocce, kubb or something else. The built-in games bring their own scoring, game length and starter house rules. For anything else, name it and pick how it's scored.
Name the teams yourself, or open it up first come, first served with a waitlist. Nobody needs a password or an app store.
One team enters the result from the court, the other confirms. Can't make a night? The make-up sorts itself out.
Standings, clinch alerts, a playoff bracket and a champion. Then the share card goes straight to the group chat.
For the one who organizes everything
You set it up once. Rival Nights does the admin you used to do in a spreadsheet at midnight.
A real season plan from the setup wizard: weekly nights, a skipped holiday, a make-up night and finals.
Friendly. Mostly.
Head-to-head records follow every pairing all season. Results land in the league feed, the standings move, and a share card is one tap from the group chat. Nobody has to take anyone's word for it again.
The share card, as it shows up in iMessage or WhatsApp.

Your first league is free. After that, pay per league, or let one plan cover them all. Either way, joining a league never waits on money.

Your first league is still free. We ask you to subscribe when you publish your second.
Who pays, refunds and the rest are in the FAQ and the Terms.
Questions
Anyone can start a league: sign in with your email and set one up in a few minutes. Players join through their commissioner's invite email.
Your first league is free, one per person. After that, a season costs $3 a player and never more than $60 ($36 for 12 players). A one-day tournament costs $1 a player and never more than $40. The commissioner covers it, often out of league money, or on a season of up to 20 players everyone can chip in their own $3 from the league page.
Yes. The organizer plan is $39 a month or $300 a year, and every league and tournament you publish while it's active needs no season pass, so your players never pay. It covers up to 10 leagues running at once, each with up to 200 players. It renews automatically until you cancel; cancel any time on your profile and it runs to the end of the period you paid for, with no refund for part of one.
Only if the commissioner picks “Everyone chips in,” which is offered on seasons of up to 20 players. Then each player pays their own $3 by card from the league page, and joining the league never waits on it. Otherwise the commissioner covers the pass, and can fold it into the league money they collect.
Yes. When you cover the pass, setup offers to add each player's part of it to the league money you're collecting. A 40-player tournament's $40 pass adds $1 a player.
Spots still unpaid when the first night starts become the publishing commissioner's to cover, and until they do, scores and the schedule are paused. Any unpaid spots, before or after the first night, also mean they can't publish another paid league, run that one back, or delete their account until they're paid.
Not usually. Season pass payments are final, including when a league is cancelled or ends early, or a player leaves. Two exceptions: if two payments cover the same spot, we refund the extra one to the card it came from, and if we stop running Rival Nights, we refund passes for seasons that haven't started.
No. Rival Nights runs in the phone's browser. Players sign in with a 6-digit code from their email, so there's no password to forget.
Any game where two teams or two players face off. Cornhole, pickleball, ping pong, darts, bocce and kubb come set up with their own scoring. For anything else, name it and pick how it's scored: first to a score, best of a few games, lowest score wins, or just who won.
Add a teammate by first name only. They count on the team, and a teammate enters their scores. Add their email any time to send them an invite.
They tap “Can't make it?” and Rival Nights proposes a make-up night that works for both teams. The other team can pick another night within 48 hours.
Yes. Turn on spectators and anyone with the link can read the schedule, standings and results without an account. They never see email addresses.
Set it up tonight, send the invites, and the season is on the calendar before the group chat finishes arguing.
Your first league is free.
