How it works

Three picks. One point. Real tactics.

Every shot in tennis is a choice: where you serve, what you hit, where you stand next. Court Tactics turns that loop into a game you can play on your phone — and learn from with every point.

01
🎯

Pick your zone

Choose where the ball lands on a real court grid — wide, body, T, body-far. Like chess, every square is a live tactical option.

02
🎲

Commit to recovery

Where you stand after the shot matters as much as the shot itself. Live probability tells you the math — you make the call.

03
🧠

Coach Sam explains

Every point ends with a one-line tactical lesson. Why it worked. Why it didn't. What the same pattern looks like next time.

Who it's for

Built for two audiences. Same game.

Court Tactics is both a consumer app for tennis players who want to think the game — and a training tool licensed to academies that want to systematize tactics across age groups.

For players

Tournament tennis on your phone

From 4.0 club player to ATP Challenger — pick your style, drill your patterns, climb the tactical ladder.

  • Six skill tiers — orange ball through Tour level
  • Solo vs. Coach AI · live ranked PvP coming
  • Pattern library: serve+1, return+1, transition game
  • Pro tier: AI tutorial, drills, personal report card
For academies

A tactics curriculum your coaches can deploy

One licensed dashboard for 7–10 year olds through high-performance squads. Coaches assign drills. Players play points. Reports go home.

  • Skill-based level packs by age (orange / green / yellow / tour)
  • Coach dashboard — assign, review, score
  • White-label academy branding
  • Per-seat licensing — fits any club size
Why it's different from any other tennis app

Not a serve tracker.
A tactics simulator.

♟

Chess-grade depth

Every shot is a positional decision. No spray-and-pray. Patterns build over a match the way openings build over a chess game.

🎲

D&D-style probability

Every choice has a hidden roll behind it: stamina, opponent style, recovery angle. You see the math, then you make the call.

🤖

AI coach, not just AI opponent

Coach Sam explains every won and lost point in a tactical sentence. Drill packs unlock based on your weakest pattern.

📈

Tiers from junior to tour

Same engine, six levels of tactical complexity. A 7-year-old plays the orange-ball version. A college player plays the tour version.

🏟

Academy-ready

White-label dashboards, coach-assigned drills, player progress reports — built for clubs that train, not just play.

⚡

One match, 90 seconds

A best-of-3 takes a coffee break to play. Train tactics every day without leaving the court.

Why now

Magnus Norman would have built this if he'd been born 20 years later.

Chess has Lichess. Football has Football Manager. Basketball has 2K. Tennis has — score-keepers and stat trackers. Nothing that lets you play the tactical layer of the game without lacing up.

Modern AI finally makes it possible to simulate a real point against a real opponent style, with real probability, on a real court — in 90 seconds, on a phone.

"You don't lose matches because of strokes. You lose them because of the shots you chose. This app trains the choosing."
