Built for players who want professional lessons with some partner matching as a side feature.

"Found three regular partners in my first week. Finally playing twice a week instead of once a month."
"Love how easy it is to find last-minute games when my usual partner cancels."
Doyouplay optimizes for playing frequency. PlayYourCourt optimizes for learning structure.
Doyouplay users spend more time playing tennis. PlayYourCourt users spend more time navigating the platform.
PlayYourCourt has legitimate advantages if you:
• Prioritize structured lessons over casual play
• Want professional instruction with certified coaches
• Prefer video learning resources and skill tracking
• Don't mind recurring fees for organized programs
But for most recreational players, these benefits don't outweigh the barriers to actually playing more tennis.
Doyouplay gets you playing immediately. PlayYourCourt gets you learning systematically.
