Beleeg vs CourtReserve
By Michael Montalbano, founder of Beleeg · Last updated
Beleeg runs the league itself free for the organizer, at any courts: the schedule, captain lineups, scores, standings, sign-ups, and dues, and we do the import for you. CourtReserve (from $159 a month billed annually) fits better if you own or manage courts and need court booking and membership billing.
Beleeg runs the league itself, free for the organizer, and does not book courts. CourtReserve runs a racquet club: court booking, memberships, payments, and leagues, from $159 a month billed annually. Some clubs will use both.

Who Beleeg fits

Questions people ask about Beleeg and CourtReserve
Do I need CourtReserve to run a pickleball or tennis league?
No. Beleeg runs a pickleball or tennis league free for the organizer, and you need CourtReserve only if you also run the courts. CourtReserve is club management software, built around court booking, memberships, and billing, with leagues and ladders included, and its plans start at $159 a month billed annually, according to its pricing page on September 29, 2026.
Beleeg builds the schedule, captains set lineups and enter scores from their phones, and the standings update on their own. When a player pays online, Beleeg keeps a flat $3.
Can a club use CourtReserve and Beleeg together?
Yes. A club can keep booking courts and billing members in CourtReserve and run its interclub or team league in Beleeg. The two do not connect, so you enter the league’s court times in Beleeg yourself, or bring them in from a spreadsheet.
If the club collects league fees through its own billing, choose “Collect payments yourself” in Beleeg and mark players paid; that costs nothing.
When CourtReserve is the better fit
- You own or manage courts and members book and pay for court time. Beleeg does not book courts.
- You bill club memberships every month or year. Beleeg takes league and event payments, not recurring memberships.
