# Free Online Padel Scoreboard & Match Tracker
Tracking scores in padel can get confusing with fast-paced rallies, tiebreaks, side changes, and the official Punto de Oro (Gold Point) rule. This free online padel scoreboard takes the hassle out of scorekeeping. Simply tap the visual court to log points, and let the tool automatically manage server rotations, receiver sides, set histories, and court side swaps in real-time.# Understanding Padel Scoring, Gold Points, and Rotations
Padel follows standard tennis-like scoring (15, 30, 40, Game) but introduces specific rules for faster play. Under the professional FIP rules, when the score reaches 40-40, a deciding Gold Point (Punto de Oro) is played. The receiving team selects which side (left or right) will receive the serve, and the winner of that single point wins the game. Additionally, teams must swap sides of the court whenever the total games played in a set is odd, and every 6 points during a tiebreak.Friendly Matches

# Padel Tiebreak Rules: Standard vs Super Tiebreaks
In standard padel sets, if the score reaches 6-6 in games, a standard 7-point tiebreak is played. In a tiebreak, points are counted numerically (1, 2, 3, etc.). The first team to reach 7 points with a margin of 2 wins the set. The player whose turn it is to serve serves the first point from the right (deuce) side. Thereafter, each player serves for two consecutive points, starting from the left (advantage) side. In some tournament formats, if the match is tied at 1-1 in sets, a 10-point Super Tiebreak is played instead of a full third set to decide the match.# Court Switching and Rotations: Keeping Padel Fair
Court switching is essential in padel to ensure that environmental factors, such as sun, wind, or court-specific imperfections, do not favor one team over another. Players must swap ends of the court after the first game of each set, and then after every two games (e.g. at 1-0, 2-1, 3-2, 4-3, 5-4). Our digital padel scoreboard features a dynamic ends swapping animation that automatically rotates the visual court layout by 180 degrees whenever players are required to switch sides physically. This ensures that the team displayed at the top of your screen always matches the team playing on the far end of the physical court.# Standard Sets vs Golden Sets Format
While standard matches are played to 6 games per set, many recreational leagues and fast-paced tournaments adopt the "Golden Set" format where sets are played to only 4 games (with a tiebreak at 4-4). This scoreboard allows you to switch between these formats with a single tap in the toolbar. Regardless of the format selected, the scoreboard handles all tiebreaks, service rotations, and score calculations automatically.# Tips for Effective Scorekeeping on Court
- Use a Court Stand or Phone Holder: Mount your phone or tablet on the padel court fence at net height. This allows players from both sides to easily see the active score and server indicators.
- Personalize Names Before Starting: Take 10 seconds to type the actual names of the players or teams. This makes the voice announcements (if enabled) and visual scoreboard much more engaging and official.
- Enable Fullscreen Mode: Click the fullscreen button in the header panel. This maximizes the scoreboard interface and helps prevent the screen from turning off automatically during long rallies.
