BASKETBALL GYM TIME,
IN TURN.
A practice schedule for every team that shares your gym.
Ordallo is an ordered sign-up for basketball gym time. You set the team order once, before sign-up opens. When a team's turn comes, its coach picks practice times from what's left on a shared board, and nothing is double-booked.
Ordered turns, turn emails and calendar invites are paid features, coming with launch pricing.
No account needed for coaches: each team gets a personal link and an access code. One gym or several. Full courts or configured half courts.
| Time | Space | Team |
|---|---|---|
| Tue 6:00 | Full court | 8th Grade Boys |
| Tue 7:00 | Full court | Open |
| Wed 6:00 | Full court | 6th Grade Boys choosing |
Example teams and times. These controls change the illustration; they do not reserve a court.
How it runs
- 01
Set the order
Add your gyms, courts and open times. Put teams in the order you agreed: older grades first, in-season teams first, a rotation, or a published random draw.
- 02
Each team takes its turn
When a team's turn opens, its coach gets an email with a personal link, sees what's left on the live board and picks a weekly practice time.
- 03
Everyone sees the result
The board fills in as teams pick. Each pick lands on the calendar, and calendar invites update when plans change.
Built for how basketball gyms really get shared
Full court or half courts
Booking the full court blocks both half courts at that time, and booking a half court blocks the full court.
Several teams per turn
Put the teams of one grade in a group. They open together and pick on equal footing.
Nothing double-booked
A time is checked again at the moment a coach confirms it. If two coaches reach for the same court, one gets it and the other sees what's still open.
A coach misses their turn
The team keeps its place and can still pick. An admin can also pick on the team's behalf, and the record shows who did.
Families get the schedule
Coaches can add schedule recipients, so families get the team's calendar invite too.
A record you can show anyone
Every pick is logged with who made it and when, so “how did they get Tuesday?” has an answer.

Questions basketball coaches and athletic directors ask
Can varsity pick before JV?
Yes. You set the order before sign-up opens: older grades first, in-season teams first, a rotation, or a published random draw. Everyone can see the order before anyone picks.
Can two teams practice in one gym at the same time?
Yes, if the floor splits into half courts. Set the court up with two halves: each half is booked on its own, and a full-court booking blocks both. A side court is a separate court, so it's listed as its own court.
Do coaches need to create an account?
No. Each coach gets a personal link by email and an access code. Only admins sign in.
What if a coach doesn't pick in time?
When the turn window ends, the next group opens. The team keeps its place and can still pick from what's left, or an admin can pick for them.
Does it schedule games?
No. Ordallo divides practice time between teams. Games, standings and referees stay in your league software.
What does it cost?
Ordallo is in beta. Pricing is coming soon.
