The world's first platform supporting MLP-style pickleball player auctions

Enforce MLP-style 3 men + 3 women squad composition. Mixed Doubles pairings are tracked automatically. Perfect for franchise drafts with gender parity requirements.

MLP-Style Broadcast Overlay

WhatsApp Sold Cards

Auto-generated 1080×1350 sold card image with player photo sent instantly via WhatsApp Business API. Players share it on their status immediately after being sold.

Offline + Online Hybrid

Run at a venue without internet (offline manual mode) or fully online with remote team owners bidding. Switch between modes seamlessly mid-auction — no data loss.

Post-Auction Trading Window

48-hour bilateral player swap window after the auction. Teams propose trades with purse adjustments. Admin oversight required. The only platform with this feature for pickleball.

Pickleball Auction FAQ

Yes! CricSmart is the world's first and only platform supporting pickleball player auctions. You can run MLP-style team drafts with 3 men + 3 women squad composition, grade players by DUPR rating (3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0+), and run auctions for Singles, Men's Doubles, Women's Doubles, Mixed Doubles, and Team Relay categories. All standard auction features — real-time bidding, broadcast overlay, WhatsApp sold cards, offline mode — work for pickleball.
CricSmart is completely free for pickleball auctions with fewer than 5 teams — all features included (DUPR-based grading, Mixed Doubles support, broadcast overlay, WhatsApp cards, offline mode, trading window). For 5+ teams, it's ₹999 onwards per auction.
DUPR (Dynamic Universal Pickleball Rating) is the industry-standard pickleball skill rating from 2.0 to 8.0+. CricSmart's pickleball auction supports DUPR-based player grading — create tiers like DUPR 3.0-3.5 (Beginner), 3.5-4.0 (Intermediate), 4.0-4.5 (Advanced), 4.5+ (Elite). Each tier has its own base price and bid increment, just like IPL player grades.
Yes! CricSmart supports MLP-style 3M+3F squad composition where each team drafts 3 men and 3 women. The platform enforces gender parity in Mixed Doubles and Team Relay categories, tracks individual player DUPR ratings, and supports position-specific bidding.
Pickleball is exploding in the USA, UAE, UK, Canada, Australia, India, and Singapore. CricSmart supports multi-currency (INR, USD, AED) making it ideal for international pickleball franchise drafts. Corporate pickleball leagues in Dubai, New York, London, and Toronto are already using CricSmart.
Yes! CricSmart supports fully remote online auctions where franchise owners bid from anywhere via their phone or laptop. You can also run offline at a venue (admin manually enters bids) or in hybrid mode (switch between online and offline mid-auction).
CricSmart's offline mode lets the admin manually enter bids even without internet. If internet is lost mid-auction, switch to offline mode instantly without losing any data. All bids, player sales, and purse balances are preserved. Switch back to online mode when internet is restored.
While both support doubles categories, pickleball uses DUPR ratings (instead of BWF ranking) and MLP-style squad composition (3M+3F) that enforces gender parity. CricSmart supports both sports natively — badminton auctions use PBL-style categories and World Ranking, while pickleball uses DUPR tiers and MLP-style squads.
