Help and FAQ - ViboraMatch
What is ViboraMatch?
ViboraMatch helps you automate the creation and pairing of your padel tournament.
Automating your padel tournament through an online platform turns a complex management task into a smooth, error-free process. By importing your pair lists (CSV) directly, you eliminate tedious manual entry and the risk of omissions. The system instantly calculates team weights and automatically generates the optimal number of groups, while intelligently handling byes to balance brackets fairly.
Once the groups are created, you can print them in one click for physical display, while players check results and standings in real time on their phones. This centralized data offers full transparency and lets the organizer focus on the club atmosphere rather than last-minute math.
How do I import my players?
The system can read .csv and Excel (.xlsx) files for quick and error-free integration of your pair lists. Go to the "Importation" tab, select your file in the required format and click "📤 Import".

Pricing grid... Really? 😃
How many groups and how many seeded pairs suggested?
(Note: in some cases it is mathematically impossible to have a quarterfinal with 8 groups. That is why the setup ends up with 16 final groups instead of 8)
Viboramatch uses the "snake" method: example, 4 groups of 4 pairs, ranked by descending weight from 1 to 16, and placed in the following required order:
| [A] | [B] | [C] | [D] |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
| 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 |
| 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 |
| 16 | 15 | 14 | 13 |

What criteria are used for group seeding?
Pairing uses the pair's weight (ranking) to ensure the best pairs do not meet in the first round (seeded system).
How are ties in a group broken?
Here is exactly how ties are broken in the code (group standings).
1) Number of wins (highest first).
2) Set difference = sets won - sets lost.
3) Game difference = games won - games lost.
4) Head-to-head if still tied on the 3 criteria.

Testimonials
Before, organizing a padel tournament was a real headache. Managing registrations, building brackets, tracking scores—everything was manual. It took a huge amount of time and errors were common. Since we started using an automated system, it has been night and day. Registrations are smooth, players receive automatic notifications, matches are scheduled in a blink, and standings update in real time. We save precious time, reduce stress, and run tournaments that are far more professional and enjoyable for everyone. It is a huge step forward for organizers.
I like taking part in padel tournaments from time to time, but I don't always have much time to spend on organization. What's great about the automated system is its simplicity. I can sign up in a few clicks, get reminders for my matches, and follow the tournament without effort. I no longer worry about logistics. Everything is clear and well organized. It lets me fully enjoy the game and the tournament atmosphere without the administrative hassle. It really makes padel more accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
As a regular player, I've seen the difference. Before, we often had to look up results on printed sheets, and there were delays. With the automated system, everything is instantly available on my phone. I can see my next match, my opponents, live scores from other matches, and my ranking in the tournament. It makes the experience far more immersive and interactive. No more wasted time waiting or searching for information. We can focus on playing, and that's a real plus.
For our club management, this system is a blessing. It helps us manage tournament registrations more easily, optimize court usage, and offer better service to our members. Built-in communication tools help keep players informed and handle last-minute changes. In addition, the statistics generated give us valuable insights to improve our offerings and events. It's an investment that quickly proved its value by simplifying daily operations and increasing member satisfaction.
